✦ Synopsis


Household effects accounted for significant proportions of the observed variance of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and subfractions HDL2 and HDL3. It was found that 19.3% of HDL-C variance could be attributed to a juvenile sib effect (under age 18); 17.4% of HDL, variance could be attributed to a sib effect (of any age); and 22.1% and 32.6% of the HDL3 variance could be attributed to a parent-offspring effect and a sib effect (of any age), respectively. In addition, additive genetic effects accounted for 56.5%, 37.3%, and 28.3% of the variances of HDL-C, HDL2, and HDL3, respectively. These are maximum likelihood estimates obtained using a variance components model on 2,149 HDL-C levels measured on members of 54 Utah pedigrees, and 337 HDL2 and HDL3 levels measured on a subset of 14 pedigrees.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) participates in the transfer of cholesterol to the liver, in which it is subsequently excreted into bile as bile acid and cholesterol. In this study, the effect of essential fatty-acid (EFA) deficiency on cholesterol contribution from HDL subfractions to bile was inves

High plasma concentrations of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are a powerful indicator of low vascular risk. By decreasing HDL cholesterol, cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) could perhaps constitute an atherogenic protein. We measured HDL cholesterol and HDL subfractions and quant
