1 HMGCR rs17671591 SNP Determines Lower Plasma LDL-C after Atorvastatin Therapy in Chilean Individuals. Atorvastatin 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase Homo sapiens
2 Hence, we aimed to evaluate the contribution of PCSK9 rs7552841 and HMGCR rs17671591 SNPs as genetic determinants of atorvastatin response in Chilean hypercholesterolaemic individuals. Atorvastatin 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase Homo sapiens
3 Our data suggest that the HMGCR rs17671591 polymorphism can constitute a genetic marker of lower plasma LDL-C and enhanced HDL-C concentration after atorvastatin therapy in the Chilean population. Atorvastatin 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase Homo sapiens
