Apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism: effects on plasma lipids and risk of type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease

Abstract: BackgroundThe most common apolipoprotein E (apoE) gene polymorphism has been found to influence plasma lipid concentration and its correlation with coronary artery disease (CAD) has been extensively investigated in the last decade. It is, however, unclear whether apoE gene polymorphism is also associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The knowledge of this study may provide the primary prevention for T2DM and CAD development before its initiation and progression. Therefore, this study … Show more

“…The present study demonstrates higher blood pressure in children with obesity and AN than in children with normal weight. The greatest difference was found in systolic blood pressure, in accordance with the study by Dong B et al on children and adolescents in China (40), by Chiolero A. on children of the Republic of Seychelles in Africa (41), by Moser on Brazilian children (42), and by Hoog who studied the association between blood pressure and BMI in children from different ethnic groups (43).…”

“…[2][3][4][5] The combination of these lipoprotein abnormalities, termed atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD), is highly prevalent in patients with diabetes mellitus or metabolic syndrome, and, in addition to high LDL-C, contributes independently to cardiovascular risk. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Treatment with fibrates may reduce cardiovascular risk in patients with AD associated with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus. 20 However, in the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) study, the use of fenofibrate and simvastatin did not reduce the rates of cardiovascular events compared with simvastatin alone.…”
