The case of the association of hypertriglyceridemia with the high level of serum Cu may also be explained by the serum concentration of the Cu-proproteins SSAO and Cp since both have been reported in positive association fasting plasma triglycerides in adults with metabolic syndrome [42] and in non-insulin-dependent patients with type 2 diabetes [36]. This evidence concerns the gene CP and hypertriglyceridemia.
