Apolipoprotein A (APOA)2–265 T>C polymorphism significantly affects lipid metabolism and body composition, as well as plays a key role in cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and metabolic syndrome. In this study, association between the APOA2 polymorphism, lipid profiles, body composition, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in a healthy Indonesian population was investigated. Although similar studies have been conducted in other populations, this study addresses the urgent need to understand genetic factors influencing lipid profiles in Southeast and East Asia, where hypercholesterolemia rate keep rising, particularly in Indonesia.
