Does genetic variation in the D6-desaturase promoter modify the association between a-linolenic acid and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome?1-3

Truong, Hong; Di Bello, Julia R.; Ruiz Narváez, Edward A.; Kraft, Peter; Campos, Hannia; Baylin, Ana (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2009)

The prevalence of the metabolic syndrome has been increasing worldwide (1). In the United States the prevalence for the period 1999–2002 was 34.5% (2). Several Latin American countries are experiencing an increasing ...
Effect of apolipoprotein E genotype and saturated fat intake on plasma lipids and myocardial infarction in the Central Valley of Costa Rica

Yang, Yadong; Ruiz Narváez, Edward A.; Kraft, Peter; Campos, Hannia (American Association of Anthropological Genetics, 2007)

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is a ligand for the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and the LDL receptor-related protein (LRP) (Mahley and Rall 2000). Through these receptors apoE mediates the uptake of chylomicron remnants ...
Linolenic acid, desaturase gene polymorphism, and the risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction 1–3

Baylin, Ana; Ruiz Narváez, Edward A.; Kraft, Peter; Campos, Hannia (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2007)

Desaturase (FADS2) is the rate-limiting step in the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) biosynthetic pathway. Very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) pools originate from the diet and endogenously from elongation ...
