Tangier disease is caused by mutations in the gene encoding ATP-binding cassette transporter 1

TL;DR: Tangier disease (TD) was first discovered nearly 40 years ago in two siblings living on Tangier Island This autosomal co-dominant condition is characterized in the homozygous state by the absence of HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) from plasma, hepatosplenomegaly, peripheral neuropathy and frequently premature coronary artery disease (CAD).
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipoprotein(a) is an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction at a young age.

TL;DR: The data suggest that an increased concentration of lipoprotein(a) constitutes an independent risk factor for early myocardial infarction and the concentrations of Lp (a) and LDL cholesterol (apolipoprotein B) in serum are under separate metabolic control.
Journal Article

The emergence of triglycerides as a significant independent risk factor in coronary artery disease

TL;DR: The Prospective Cardiovascular Münster (PROCAM) study showed that fasting levels of triglycerides were an independent risk factor for CHD events, irrespective of serum levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) or low density cholesterol (LDL-L), and that individuals with potentially atherogenic lipid profiles should be managed initially through the introduction of lifestyle changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correction: Corrigendum: Monocyte-induced recovery of inflammation-associated hepatocellular dysfunction in a biochip-based human liver model

TL;DR: This corrects the article DOI: 10.1038/srep21868 to indicate that the author of the paper is a doctor of medicine rather than a scientist, as previously reported.
