Abstract :
BACKGROUND: Gene-nutrient interactions affecting high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations may contribute to the interindividual variability of the cardiovascular disease risk associated with dietary fat intake. Hepatic lipase (HL) is a key determinant of HDL metabolism. Four polymorphisms in linkage disequilibrium have been identified in the HL gene (LIPC), defining what is known as the -514T allele. This allele has been associated with decreased HL activity and increased HDL-C concentrations. However, the effect is variable among populations. METHODS AND |
