Ethnic LIPC genotype differences associate with HDL-C variation; leaves open causal mechanisms and clinical utility pending prospective studies.
Is the LIPC -250G>A polymorphism associated with serum lipid levels in the Guangxi Bai Ku Yao and Han populations?
Differences in serum lipid profiles between the Bai Ku Yao and Han populations may be partly explained by different genotypic frequencies of the LIPC -250G>A polymorphism and gene-environment interactions.
