Introduction: Obesity is a prevalent multifactorial disease whose main complication is
dyslipidemia. Serum lipid levels also depend on genetic factors including the Taq1B variant …

Background Dyslipidaemias result from the interaction between genetic and environmental
factors, including diet disequilibrium and physical inactivity. Among the genetic factors …

Background There is little evidence of the association between CETP SNPs and obesity
and/or related metabolic parameters. Objective To analyze the association of the …

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is an enzyme with a
key role in lipoprotein metabolism. A common genetic polymorphism, the Taq 1B, influences …

Background & aim Dyslipidemia is one of the major complications in patients with type 2
diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Dietary fat intake and genetic factors including CETP Taq1B …

Aims To observe the relationship among genes, obesity and the changes in serum glucose
and lipid profile to assess whether obesity-related disease results from genes and/or …

Associations between the TAQIB and I405V polymorphisms and obesity risk were studied for
a single locus as well as in combination. A total of 934 obese subjects and 924 normal …

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine the relation between the CETP-TaqIB
polymorphism and reduced plasma HDL-cholesterol levels commonly observed among men …

Genome-wide association studies show that cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) single
nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are more strongly associated with HDL cholesterol (HDL …

Background Hyperlipidaemia is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD) and
cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene polymorphisms are known to be associated …
