摘要: The developments of the Human Genome Project have fueled expectations with regard to potential associating variations in genes risk common complex diseases. Despite many problems encountered, examples HLA and apolipoprotein E gene show usefulness this approach. Keywords: association; human leukocyte antigen; apolipoprotein E; disease; polymorphism; complex diseases; genetic epidemiology
