Associations between Common Genetic Polymorphisms in Angiopoietin-Like Proteins 3 and 4 and Lipid Metabolism and Adiposity in European Adolescents and Adults

Abstract

The present study underlines the role of ANGPTL3 in HDL-cholesterol metabolism as early as in adolescence. Our data also suggest possible associations between ANGPTL4 polymorphisms and body fat, but these findings require replication.
