Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Lipoprotein lipase
(LPL) is an important enzyme in lipoprotein metabolism. S447X polymorphism of the LPL …

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays a pivotal role in lipid metabolism by hydrolyzing triglyceride
(TG)-rich lipoprotein particles. Abnormalities in normal LPL function are associated with the …

Objective To investigate polymorphisms in the gene for lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in Chinese
populations with coronary heart disease (CHD) and to inquire into the relationship between …

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to test whether the Hin dIII (+) and Pvu II (−) or
(+) restriction enzyme–defined alleles are associated with angiographic coronary artery …

Abstract Background and Aim: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the leading causes
of death and disability around the world. Interaction between genetic and environmental …

Genetic variation at the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) locus has been shown to influence plasma
lipids and to modulate risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). Recently, we found that the …

Coronary heart disease is a complex disease reflecting the interaction of multiple genes with
the environment (eg diet, life style). Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays an important role in lipid …

Modifications in lipoprotein lipase levels lead to elevated triglycerides and reduced high
density lipoprotein (HDL), both of which are risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) …

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays a central role in lipoprotein metabolism by hydrolyzing the
core triglycerides (TGs) of circulating chylomicrons and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) …

Several DNA variants at the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene locus have been found to be
associated with the plasma lipid levels and the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) …
