Serum lipoproteins in psoriasis.

TL;DR: Gandhi et al. as mentioned in this paper found an increase in the total fats in the serum of patients with psoriasis, which was not confirmed by equally competent observers, and they were not on special diets, nor were standard S/ 0-12 and standard Sf 1-JfiO lipoprotein levels in the general population* and in psoría patients.

Activation of a cryptic splice-site in intron 24 leads to the formation of apolipoprotein B-27.6

TL;DR: The characterization of the effects of a T-->C transition in the splice-site at +2 of intron 24 previously reported by Talmud et al. is reported, indicating that this splICE-site mutation leads to an activation of a downstream cryptic spliced-site within intron24, causing an insertion of 40 bases of introns 24 sequences into the mature RNA.
