Frequency of Common Variants in Genes Involved in Lipid-Lowering Response to Statins in Chilean Subjects with Hypercholesterolemia

Frequency of Common Variants in Genes Involved in Lipid-Lowering Response to Statins in Chilean Subjects with Hypercholesterolemia

Interindividual differences in activity and expression of the metabolizing enzymes cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and 3A5 and the multidrug efflux pump P-glycoprotein (P-gp, encoded by ABCB1 gene) contribute considerably to lipid-lowering efficacy of statin treatment in subjects with hypercholesterolemia...
