Genetic Contribution of Variants near SORT1 and APOE on LDL Cholesterol Independent of Obesity in Children.

Genetic Contribution of Variants near SORT1 and APOE on LDL Cholesterol Independent of Obesity in Children.

To assess potential effects of variants in six lipid modulating genes (SORT1, HMGCR, MLXIPL, FADS2, APOE and MAFB) on early development of dyslipidemia independent of the degree of obesity in children, we investigated their association with total (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), high density l...
