Methods: Using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), we measured the expression of the genes involved in lipoprotein homeostasis, namely for sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1), SREBP2, low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), hepatic lipase type C (LIPC), LDLR-related protein 8 (LRP8), and the genes associated with inflammation and coagulation, such as cluster of differentiation (CD) 36 (CD36), CD63, and CD14 in 96 patients with CAD and 25 healthy subjects. The gene discussed is LIPC; the disease is coronary artery disorder.
