Familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency – neonatal presentation
A baby girl, born by normal spontaneous vaginal delivery with birth weight 3.845kg, was admitted for neonatal jaundice on day 2 of life. Her mother had maternal gestational diabetes on diet control. Her father was newly diagnosed with hyperlipidaemia on health screen and was put on diet control. There was no consanguinity. Her serum bilirubin level on admission was 186mmol/L with normal liver f...
متن کاملHeterogeneous mutations in the human lipoprotein lipase gene in patients with familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency.
The DNA sequences were determined for the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene from five unrelated Japanese patients with familial LPL deficiency. The results demonstrated that all five patients are homozygotes for distinct point mutations dispersed throughout the LPL gene. Patient 1 has a G-to-A transition at the first nucleotide of intron 2, which abolishes normal splicing. Patient 2 has a nonsense ...
متن کاملA missense (Asp250----Asn) mutation in the lipoprotein lipase gene in two unrelated families with familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency.
We have identified the molecular basis for familial lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency in two unrelated families with the syndrome of familial hyperchylomicronemia. All 10 exons of the LPL gene were amplified from the two probands' genomic DNA by polymerase chain reaction. In family 1 of French descent, direct sequencing of the amplification products revealed that the patient was heterozygous ...
متن کاملAbnormal lipoprotein lipase in familial exogenous hypertriglyceridemia.
A 5-yr old male proband and his sister have had hypertriglyceridemia and hepatosplenomegaly since birth. When studied on a metabolic ward, they demonstrated rapid decreases in serum triglycerides on 3 g fat/day diets. Oral glucose tolerance tests were normal. Postheparin lipolytic activity (PHLA) against chylomicrons was virtually absent in both children whereas the mother and a normolipemic si...
متن کاملPlasma lipoproteins in familial hepatic lipase deficiency.
We have studied the lipoproteins, apolipoproteins, and postheparin lipase activities in an extended pedigree with familial hepatic lipase deficiency. A deficiency of hepatic lipase was found in three of five brothers and in one of their children. Triglyceride enrichment of low density and high density lipoproteins was identified as the constitutive phenotype. beta-very low density lipoprotein w...
