The −514C/T Polymorphism of Hepatic Lipase Gene among Iranian Patients with Coronary Heart Disease

摘要

Background:The T allele of the hepatic lipase (HL) C-514T polymorphism was previously found to be associated with lower plasma HL activity. Here, we examined the association between this polymorphism and plasma HDL-cholesterol concentrations in patients with coronary arteries stenosis.
