Compositions and Methods for Effecting the Levels of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol and Apolipoprotein AI, Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) Cholesterol and Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Cholesterol

摘要

Compositions and methods for raising the level of HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein AI in a patient and for lowering the levels of VLDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in a patient, including compositions and methods which effect the expression of a gene, LIPG, which encodes a lipase enzyme that is a member of the triacylglycerol lipase family or which effect the enzymatic activity of the enzyme.
