Relationship of apoE polymorphism with lipoprotein(a), apoA, apoB and lipid levels in atherosclerotic infarct

Association of apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism with end-stage renal disease and hyperlipidemia in patients on long-term hemodialysis

“…The apoE gene analysis performed in this study indicates that the E3/E3 genotype and the e3 allele were the most common genotype and allele in ESRD patients and control subjects. These results agree with the findings reported by Tascilar et al 11 The E2/E2 and E4/E4 homozygous genotypes were not found in the ESRD patients and controls. The frequency distribution of the e2 allele and the e2-containing genotypes (E2/E3 and E2/E4) showed no significant differences between both groups.…”

Correlation between quantitative analysis of wall shear stress and intima-media thickness in atherosclerosis development in carotid arteries

“…In the process of atherosclerosis formation, hemodynamics alterations and pathological reconstitution occurs in the artery blood vessels. WSS is one of the important physical factors that affect the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis [ 19 ]. As a direct stress acting on arterial smooth muscle cells, it directly affects the arterial smooth muscle cells and arterial smooth muscle cell media, and thus indirectly affects other cellular components and structures of the arterial wall.…”

Association Between Apolipoprotein E Polymorphism and Subclinic Atherosclerosis in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

“…It was also reported that subjects with E4 allele had higher lipid levels, especially LDL cholesterol levels (20). Tascilar et al (20) and Fernandez et al (21) showed that the E4 allele was associated with elevated LDL cholesterol. Bennet et al (22) reported that Apo E genotypes were related to LDL levels and coronary risk.…”
