Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) Genetic Variation and Early Onset of Non‐Fatal Myocardial Infarction

Although Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) mediates the transfer of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between lipoprotein particles and thus plays a crucial role in reverse cholesterol transport, the association of variations in the CETP gene with acute myocardial infarction (MI) remains unclear. In this study we examined whether common genetic variation in the CETP gene is related to early‐onset non‐fatal MI risk in a population‐based case‐control study from western Washington State.
