Promoter polymorphisms of hepatic lipase gene influence HDL(2) but not HDL(3) in African American men: CARDIA study.
Hepatic lipase encoded by the hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) is involved in the metabolism of several lipoproteins. Four promoter polymorphisms in LIPC have been found to be in complete disequilibrium and associated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apolipoprotein (apo)A-I levels in both white and black populations. We investigated the association between the promoter polymorphi...
متن کاملBody mass index and hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) polymorphism jointly influence postheparin plasma hepatic lipase activity.
The -514 polymorphism in the hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) is associated with decreased hepatic lipase activity. In the present study, the interaction between body mass index (BMI), the -514 polymorphism, and hepatic lipase activity was examined in 118 white men and in 51 African American men. BMI was significantly positively correlated with hepatic lipase activity in both populations. BMI was sim...
متن کاملTwo polymorphisms for the human hepatic lipase (HL) gene.
SOURCE AND DESCRIPTION OF CLONE: A 1.65 kb ECORI cDNA insert corresponding to the full length hepatic lipase (HL) sequence isolated from a rat liver cDNA library (I). CHROMOSOMAL LOCALIZATION: Chromosome 15q21 by somatic cell and in situ hybridization (2).
متن کاملHepatic lipase C514T polymorphism and its relationship with plasma HDL-C levels and coronary artery disease in Koreans.
Hepatic lipase is a key enzyme that is involved in HDL-C metabolism. The goal of this study was to find out the frequency of the hepatic lipase C514T polymorphism, and evaluate its relationship with plasma HDL-C levels and coronary artery disease (CAD) in Koreans. Two hundred and twenty four subjects with no previous history of lipid-lowering therapy, 118 patients with significant CAD, and 106 ...
متن کاملActivities of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic triglyceride lipase in postheparin plasma of patients with low concentrations of HDL cholesterol.
Previous investigations have shown that abnormalities in the postheparin plasma levels of the lipolytic enzymes, lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic triglyceride lipase (HTGL), are correlated with variations in plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. The present study was performed to determine correlations between the postheparin plasma activities of these two enzymes and ...
