The data are expressed as the mean ± SD. HDL – high-density lipoprotein, LDL – low-density lipoprotein, VLDL – very-low-density lipoprotein, mg/dL= milligram per deciliter. P values for total cholesterol were calculated by ANOVA, while those for the other parameters were calculated by the Kruskal-Wallis test. The lowercase letters indicate significant differences detected between genotypes in the 2 X 2 comparisons, where a and b indicate significance compared to the GG and GC genotypes, respectively.
