Cardiovascular Resilience in Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Genomic Signatures from a Founder Population Highlight <i>IL34</i> as a Candidate Gene Associated with Event-Free Survival
2026-07-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a semi-dominant genetic disorder characterized by lifelong elevation of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and a markedly increased risk of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Despite this elevated risk, some individuals with FH survive beyond 70 years of age without developing clinical CVD. This study aimed to identify genetic...
