“…As Supplementary Figure 1 shows, 144 variants in the well-known triglyceride hotspot 11q23.3 were shown to be associated with strong significance to triglyceride levels in the HNPT_EU. There are published associations within this multi-gene region ( BUD13 , ZPR1 , APOC3 , SIK3 , and APOA5 ), as well as MLXIPL, LPL , and GCKR to triglyceride levels: we list only a few here ( Kathiresan et al, 2008 ; Willer et al, 2008 ; Hegele et al, 2009 ; Hindorff et al, 2009 ; Murray et al, 2009 ; Ariza et al, 2010 ; Johansen et al, 2010 ; Ken-Dror et al, 2010 ; Teslovich et al, 2010 ; Waterworth et al, 2010 ; Kraja et al, 2011 ; Comuzzie et al, 2012 ; Kettunen et al, 2012 ; Coram et al, 2013 ; Keller et al, 2013 ; Lutz et al, 2015 ; Yamasaki et al, 2015 ; Hoffmann et al, 2018b ; van der Harst and Verweij, 2018 ; Wojcik et al, 2019 ).…”
