The present invention provides diagnostic methods and compositions for determining a patient's predisposition towards developing cardiovascular diseases, which comprises identifying the allelic pattern of genes encoding microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) and comparing the MTP alleic pattern of said patient with the corresponding allelic patterns of humans with no clinical indicators of cardiovascular disease. The invention also provides isolated nucleic acids encoding MTP promoter varients, including probes and methods for using the isolated nucleic acids for detecting these polymorphisms in individuals.

Cette invention se rapporte à des procédés et des compositions diagnostiques permettant de déterminer la prédisposition d'un patient à développer des maladies cardio-vasculaires, ces procédées consistant à identifier le modèle allélique des gènes codant la protéine de transfert de triglycérides microsomique (MTP) et à comparer ce modèle allélique MTP de ce patient avec des modèles alléliques correspondants de sujets n'ayant aucun signe clinique de maladies cardio-vasculaires. Cette invention concerne également des acides nucléiques isolés codant des variants du promoteur de MTP, y compris des sondes et des procédés d'utilisation de ces acides nucléiques isolés pour détecter de tels polymorphismes chez des sujets.
