Background: The serum concentrations of lipoproteins and lipids are heritable risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Pregnancy is associated with increases in plasma lipid profiles. Identifying the genetic determinants could provide novel insights into mechanisms of dyslipidemia and reveal avenues for developing new therapies. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on serum lipid levels during pregnancy.<p ...
