## Abstract The apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene is involved in lipid transport. A common polymorphism in this gene with the APOE\*2, APOE\*3, and APOE\*4 alleles influences plasma levels of apolipoprotein E and cholesterol. Besides its role in lipid transport, the APOE\*4 allele is a genetic risk fact
