Apoprotein E Polymorphism and Coronary Artery Disease: Increased Prevalence of Apolipoprotein E-4 in Angiographically Verified Coronary Patients

Apoprotein E Polymorphism and Coronary Artery Disease: Increased Prevalence of Apolipoprotein E-4 in Angiographically Verified Coronary Patients

Several studies have Indicated that genetic polymorphism of apolipoprotein (apo) E Is related to coronary artery disease (CAD). We therefore determined the apo E phenotype In 91 consecutive Finnish men with angiographically confirmed CAD. The apo E phenotype distribution differed significantly from...

Zusammenfassung:Several studies have Indicated that genetic polymorphism of apolipoprotein (apo) E Is related to coronary artery disease (CAD). We therefore determined the apo E phenotype In 91 consecutive Finnish men with angiographically confirmed CAD. The apo E phenotype distribution differed significantly from that observed In the Finnish population (p
