  • Association of socioeconomic stratification with plasmatic markers of lipoperoxidation and antioxidants in Venezuelan school-age children Nelina Ruiz-Fernández Virgilio Bosch Maria Isabel Giacopini Medicina Risk Genotype Colombia Coronary Disease Lipoprotein lipase Objective: To analyze if there is an association between the presence of polymorphisms in the LPL gene (rs320, rs285 and rs328) with development of acute ischemic stroke in Colombian population. Methods: In a case control design, 133 acute ischemic stroke patients (clinical diagnosis and x-ray CT) and 269 subjects without stroke as controls were studied. PCR -RFLP technique was used to detect rs320, rs285 and rs328 polymorphisms in the LPL gene. Results: In the present research was not found any association between any of the LPL gene polymorphism and acute ischemic stroke in the population studied; the allele and genotypic frequencies of the studied polymorphisms were similar in cases and controls and followed the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The study was approved by the IRB and each subject signed the informed consent. Conclusion: LPL gene polymorphisms are not genetic markers for the development of stroke in the Colombian sample used. 2016 artículo científico 0120-8322 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28349362002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28349362002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28349362002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28349362002/28349362002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/283/28349362002/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=283 Colombia Médica application/pdf Universidad del Valle Colombia Médica (Colombia) Num.4 Vol.47
