FADS1/rs174547 effectson dyslipidemia have been reported in many races, and a study of the Chineseadult population showed that FADS1/rs174547 was significantlyassociated with high triglyceride levels in men and negatively associated withlow density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels in women, thereby suggesting that it may be a sex-specificSNP locus [62]. This evidence concerns the gene FADS1 and metabolic syndrome.
