Whole-exome sequencing identifies novel protein-altering variants associated with serum apolipoprotein and lipid concentrations

Abstract Background Dyslipidemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and diabetes impacts the lipid metabolism through multiple pathways. In addition to the standard lipid measurements, apolipoprotein concentrations provide added awareness of the burden of circulating lipoproteins. Wh...
