Serum lipids and apolipoprotein E phenotypes in identical twins reared apart.

Clinical genetics - 1 Mar 1998

Kervinen K, Kaprio J, Koskenvuo M, Juntunen J, Kesäniemi Y A

Abstract excerpt

Lipid and lipoprotein metabolism is controlled by genes, the environment and the gene environment interaction. We studied monozygotic twin pairs reared apart (MZA) and an age sex matched group of twins reared together (MZT) to evaluate the effects of the genotype and the rearing environment on lipids. The intraclass correlations for low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol were 0.21 and 0.50 for the MZA and MZT...
