Document type Journal Article

The genetic background of polygenic hypercholesterolemia was studied in hypercholesterolemic children consuming a diet identical to control individuals with low cholesterol concentrations. Significantly higher frequencies of "disadvantage" alleles, usually combined with a higher LDL cholesterol, were found in hypercholesterolemic individuals when polymorphisms in apolipoprotein E, apolipoprotein B--XbaI and LDL receptor--PvuII were studied.
