[Article in Russian]

Abstract

The paper shows the lack of association of two polymorphic loci localized in the promoter region of the gene CETP (rs1800775 and rs4783961) with the risk of coronary heart disease in the population of the Republic of Tatarstan. Also, there are no differences in the activity of the enzyme among the carriers of different genotypes.
