. 2009 Oct;
18(3):342-7.
PMID: 19844255
Low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. To identify novel genetic variants that contribute to HDL-C, we performed genome-wide scans and quantitative...

PMID: 19553242
Aims: Severe high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) deficiency is attributed to mutations in several genes and may contribute to the genetic basis of coronary artery disease. To identify the cellular basis...

PMID: 16755202
Purpose Of Review: High-density lipoproteins have multi-factorial anti-atherosclerosis properties: they have potent anti-oxidant effects and prevent the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins; they have anti-inflammatory effects; they modulate vascular endothelial cell...
