Abstract:Background APOE and SLCO1B1 genetic polymorphisms are relevant in statin pharmacokinetics.Objective Aim of this study was to investigate the polymorphisms of APOE and SLCO1B1 gene in Meizhou area.Methods Genotying of APOE and SLCO1B1 genetic polymorphisms were conducted in 4761 individuals.Results Among two variants of SLCO1B1 in Meizhou, the frequencies of 388A>G and 521T>C allele were 74.89% and 11.54% separately. The frequency of SLCO1B1 gene hplotype *1b/*1b was 40.37% followed by *1a/*1b (31.93%) an… Show more
