Heterozygous c.1730G > C (p.Trp577Ser) variation in a case with familial hypercholesterolemia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: FH is an autosomal dominant disease of lipid metabolism. Hypercholesterolemia, xanthomas, and death from early coronary artery (CAD) are common in this due to a mutation the LDLR, Apo-B100 or PCSK9 genes. Case report: A 4-year-old male patient with very rare heterozygous c.1730G > C (p.Trp577Ser) variation exon 12 low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene that causes familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) was reported. As case, form may not show any symptoms first decade. This region specific. Therefore, region-specific diagnostic criteria should be developed. Conclusion: We aimed contribute literature on development by discussing patient's condition clinical results.

Familial hypercholesterolemia: a case report
Abstract Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a hereditary dislipidemia. Patients present with extremely high level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), which is due to mutation in the gene of LDL receptor. Homozygous patients (HoFH) whose incidence is 1 in 1.000.000 are at high risk of premature aortic valve stenosis, and coronary artery atherosclerosis. In homozygous individual...

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic condition that causes high low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (sometimes referred to as bad cholesterol) from birth. FH means high cholesterol that runs in a family. FH is caused by specific DNA changes that are passed on from parents to their children. It is not caused by lifestyle factors such as a high-fat diet or lack of exercise. There...

Familial hypercholesterolemia, a form of primary hyperlipoproteinemia, is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by an increase in serum LDL cholesterol concentrations. Multiple types of xanthomas occur, such as tendinous, tuberous, subperiosteal, and xanthelasma. Intertriginous xanthomas are rare, but if present are pathognomonic in this disorder. We report a patient with multiple xantho...

We have evaluated the hypolipidemic effects of mevinolin, a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis in 13 patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). Patients were maintained on a low-cholesterol diet and received sequentially increasing doses of 5, 10, 20, and 40 mg of mevinolin twice dail...
