Abstract excerpt

The analysis of seven different age cohorts (697 individuals from 10 to 109 years old) revealed age-related changes in the 3'APOB-VNTR genotype pool. By recoding the 3'APOB-VNTR alleles into three size-classes (small, S, 26-34 repeats; medium, M, 35-39 repeats; large, L, 41-55 repeats), an age-re...
