Up-regulation of PCSK9 gene expression and diminished level of LDL-receptor in rat liver as a potential cause of post-lipectomy hypercholesterolemia.

abstract：:Velocardiofacial syndrome (VCFS) is a relatively common developmental disorder characterized by craniofacial anomalies and conotruncal heart defects. Many VCFS patients present hemizygous deletions on part of chromosome 22q11.2; suggestive that haploinsufficiency in this region is responsible for this etiology. Most 2...
