Abstract Background Apolipoprotein E (APOE) plays a major role in lipid metabolism and
inflammation. However, the association between APOE gene polymorphisms and serum …

Background Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is involved in lipid transformation and metabolism.
Although some studies have examined the association between ApoE polymorphisms and …

Background Several candidate genes have been identified in relation to lipid metabolism,
and among these, lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene …

The association between APOE genotypes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is partially
mediated by LDL-cholesterol concentration but persists after adjusting for lipid levels and …

Polymorphisms of the apolipoprotein E gene (ApoE) have been associated with health and
longevity. Numerous studies have linked ApoE to health outcomes including cardiovascular …

A genetic link between lipid metabolism and inflammation has been suggested by the
association between variation in the APOE gene and plasma C-reactive protein (CRP). This …

Apolipoprotein E (apoE, protein; APOE, gene) plays a major role in lipoprotein metabolism
and lipid transport. Many investigators have described associations between apoE …

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and atherosclerosis vary
between ethnic groups. We examined the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) polymorphism, its …

Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is recognized for its importance in lipoprotein metabolism and
cardiovascular disease. We evaluated the association between APOE rs4420638 genotypes …

The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by a cluster of metabolic disorders
including abnormal lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is involved in …
