TUBB and metabolic syndrome: Several studies have reported associations between the SNPs in the EH domain-binding protein 1 gene (EHBP1) (Colafella and Denton, 2018), tubulin beta class I gene (TUBB), and WW domain-containing oxidoreductase gene (WWOX) (Denis et al., 2011; Deng et al., 2020) and dyslipidemia (GBD 2016 Disease and Injury Incidence and Prevalence Collaborators, 2017; Diener and Hankey, 2020), atherosclerosis and CAD.
