ride triglycerides. the question do they have anything to do with heart diseases? 'difficult. we know about ldl, the bad cholesterol so-called but we don't know about triglycerides. the big takeaways from the study, the miuations in the gene have much lower triglyceride levels and lower heart attack restin restings. that links low race to glis rides to low heart attack risk and the mutations all seem to be mutations that destroyed function of the genes. if you had a drug that blocked the protein that the gene encodes a drug would mimic the genetic effect and reduce the imassistance of heart attack. the other important point there are two independent studies, one done in denmark, one across the united states, they have pretty much the same result and that makes it much more believable. >> you know what i was thinking when i read this, it's one thing to find this and that is fantastic, if this really proves out, but it takes a long time
