Genetic contribution of SCARB1 variants to lipid traits in African Blacks: a candidate gene association study

BACKGROUND: High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) exerts many anti-atherogenic properties including its role in reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). Scavenger receptor class B member 1 (SCARB1) plays a key role in RCT by selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl esters. We aimed to explore the gene...
