Ancestry as a determinant of mean population C-reactive protein values: implications for cardiovascular risk predictionTina Shah
Centre for Clinical Pharmacology, University College London, United Kingdom
Circ Cardiovasc Genet 3:436-44. 2010..Most observational studies of CRP and cardiovascular disease have been in Europeans. We evaluated the influence of ancestry on population CRP concentration to assess the implications for statin targeting in non-Europeans...
Detecting, predicting and modifying cardiovascular risk: new and developing strategiesTina Shah
Centre for Clinical Pharmacology, British Heart Foundation Laboratories at UCL, Rayne Building, 5 University Street, London, WC1E 6JJ, UK
Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther 8:1519-21. 2010..This article focuses on some of these factors, as well as risk prediction and detection, and concludes with the current state of antiatherogenic treatment strategies...
Separating the mechanism-based and off-target actions of cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitors with CETP gene polymorphismsReecha Sofat
Centre for Clinical Pharmacology, Department of Medicine, University College London, London, United Kingdom
Circulation 121:52-62. 2010..We hypothesized that common single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the CETP gene could help distinguish mechanism-based from off-target actions of CETP inhibitors to inform on the validity of CETP as a therapeutic target...

Gene-centric association signals for lipids and apolipoproteins identified via the HumanCVD BeadChipPhilippa J Talmud
Centre for Cardiovascular Genetics, Department of Medicine, University College London, London WC1E 6JF, UK

Centre for Clinical Pharmacology, University College London, London, United Kingdom
PLoS ONE 4:e7960. 2009..Studies of the genetic basis of drug response could help clarify mechanisms of drug action/metabolism, and facilitate development of genotype-based predictive tests of efficacy or toxicity (pharmacogenetics)...
C-reactive protein and coronary heart disease: predictive test or therapeutic target?Aroon D Hingorani
Division of Population Sciences, Department of Epidemiology and Public Health, University College London, London, UK
Clin Chem 55:239-55. 2009..The research has encompassed observational and genetic epidemiology, basic science studies with cells and tissues, experiments with animal models and humans, and randomized trials (although not of specific CRP-lowering therapies as yet)...
Insight into the nature of the CRP-coronary event association using Mendelian randomizationJuan P Casas
Centre for Clinical Pharmacology, Department of Medicine, BHF Laboratories at University College London, UCL, London, UK
Int J Epidemiol 35:922-31. 2006..Since the distribution of this polymorphism occurs at random during gamete formation, its association with coronary events should not be biased or confounded...
