Association between CETP Taq1B and LIPC -514C/T polymorphisms with the serum lipid levels in a group of Tehran's population: A cross sectional study
(2010-09-16)
Background: Low level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) has high prevalence in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS) cohort. About 50% of the inter-individual variation in serum HDL-C levels is genetically ...
Haplotype analysis of Apo AI-CIII-AIV gene cluster and lipids level: Tehran lipid and glucose study
(2012-02-01)
Iranian populations show an increased tendency for abnormal lipid levels and high risk of Coronary artery disease. Considering the important role played by the ApoAI-CIII-AIV gene cluster in the regulation of the level and ...
Dietary patterns interact with APOA1/APOC3 polymorphisms to alter the risk of the metabolic syndrome: the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
(2015-01-01)
© The Authors 2015. The interaction of genetic and dietary factors, as an area of CVD research, has been explored poorly. The aim of the present study was to examine the interaction of dietary patterns and three genetic ...
A Splice Region Variant in LDLR Lowers Non-high Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol and Protects against Coronary Artery Disease
(2015-01-01)
© 2015 Gretarsdottir et al. Through high coverage whole-genome sequencing and imputation of the identified variants into a large fraction of the Icelandic population, we found four independent signals in the low density ...
Hepatic lipase C-514T polymorphism and its association with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level in Tehran
(2006-01-01)
The study was conducted to obtain the frequency of the hepatic lipase C-514T polymorphism and evaluate its relation with serum HDL cholesterol levels in Tehran. A segment of the gene mentioned was amplified by polymerase ...
TaqI B1/B2 and -629A/C cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene polymorphisms and their association with CETP activity and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in a Tehranian population. Part of the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS)
(2007-12-01)
We examined the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene Taql intron 1 B1/B2 polymorphism and the -629A/C CETP promoter polymorphism in respect to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in-a healthy Iranian ...
Is there any association of apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism with obesity status and lipid profiles? Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS)
(2012-11-10)
Aims: Considering the key role played by the apolipoprotein E (Apo E) gene in the regulation of lipid metabolism and obesity, the current study has evaluate the association between abdominal obesity and Apo E gene polymorphism ...
Association of CD36 gene variants and metabolic syndrome in Iranians
(2012-04-01)
Aims: The CD36 gene encodes for a membrane receptor that facilitates fatty-acid uptake and utilization. Genetic variants of the CD36 gene have been associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). We aimed to evaluate the ...
Association of Apo E gene polymorphism with HDL level in Tehranian population
(2010-07-01)
The prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors, especially low level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), is very high in Iran. The associations of apolipoprotein E (Apo E) polymorphism with lipid profile, ...
ApoB (XbaI) polymorphism and lipid variation in Teharnian population
(2011-04-01)
This study examines the association of XbaI apolipoprotein B polymorphism with lipid related variables in Tehran lipid and glucose study. 809 subjects from the TLGS population were selected, anthropometrical and biochemical ...
