Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The MPO gene variants are not associated with LDL-PPD and thus are unlikely to be responsible for the quantitative trait locus reported on 17q21, however, the c.-653G > A is associated with plasma LDL-C and LDL-apoB concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of LRP8 gene in 1p31 QTL linked to LDL peak particle diameter in the Quebec family study.
Guillaume Dolley,Guillaume Dolley,Benoît Lamarche,Benoît Lamarche,Jean-Pierre Després,Claude Bouchard,Louis Pérusse,Marie-Claude Vohl,Marie-Claude Vohl +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that LRP8 gene polymorphisms influence plasma cholesterol levels as well as size and composition of LDL particles, which are associated with an increased cardiovascular disease risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in uric acid levels following bariatric surgery are not associated with SLC2A9 variants in the Swedish Obese Subjects Study.
Mark A. Sarzynski,Peter Jacobson,Tuomo Rankinen,Björn Carlsson,Lars Sjöström,Claude Bouchard,Lena M. S. Carlsson +6 more
TL;DR: The fluctuations in uric acid levels among the surgery group appear to be driven by the weight losses and gains, independent of SLC2A9 genotype, and associations persist even after considerable weight loss due to bariatric surgery.
