Variations on a gene: rare and common variants in ABCA1 and their impact on HDL cholesterol levels and atherosclerosis.

abstract：:Thirty years ago, it was suggested that maternal intake of certain vitamins during pregnancy affected the incidence of serious fetal malformations. Subsequent research has revealed that folate (folic acid), a B vitamin, plays a crucial role in the development of the central nervous system during the early weeks of ges...
