Genetic study links two proteins to different cardiovascular risks

Human genetic analyses linked lower activity of one fat-regulating protein to lower risks of four cardiovascular diseases, while a related protein showed little…Human genetic analyses linked lower activity of one fat-regulating protein to lower risks of four cardiovascular diseases, while a related protein showed little association with three.
