Hypercholesterolaemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis. Cholesterol is modulated by genetic and environmental factors. An important regulatory pathway is controlled by the sterol-regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) and the SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP). Both SREBP-2 and SCAP are candidates to contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. We investigated the possible...
Mean high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations are low in the Jewish population of Israel. With this in mind we assessed the association of the Taq1B CETP polymorphism, plasma CETP mass and plasma lipid, lipoprotein and apolipoprotein concentrations in a sample of 884 Jerusalem residents aged 28–32. The allele frequency (0.435±0.017(S.E.)) is similar to that reported elsewhere. There...
