Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is generated by the interaction
between environmental and genetic factors, and the presence of metabolic alterations …

Abstract Introduction and Aims: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of
diseases ranging from simple steatosis without inflammation or fibrosis to nonalcoholic …

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 …

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

Abstract Background and Aim: Environmental factors including excessive caloric intake lead
to disordered lipid metabolism and fatty liver disease (FLD). However, FLD demonstrates …

Background Low level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) has high prevalence
in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS) cohort. About 50% of the inter-individual …

Introduction: There is an association between the common CETP POLYMORPHISM, Taql in
intron 1, with HDL level in some populations. We studied this association because of low …

OBJECTIVE: HDL modifying effects of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and hepatic
lipase (LIPC) depend in part on each other. We studied associations of CETP-Taq1B and …

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 …

Background & objectives: Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene polymorphism is
known to be associated with changes in lipid profiles. Primary hyperlipidaemia is considered …
