Lipoprotein Lipase (LPL) Gene Mutation: A First Report in Children
Genetic hyperchylomicronemia is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of lipoprotein metabolism estimated to affect approximately one per million individuals. We report a case with a rare mutation identified. It’s a genetic chylomicronemia in a Moroccan newborn baby, with massive hypertriglyceridemia and clinical signs of acute pancreatitis. She was a newborn female, first-degree of consanguineou...
متن کاملLipoprotein Lipase Increases Low Density Lipoprotein Retention
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL), the rate-limiting enzyme for hydrolysis of plasma lipoprotein triglycerides, is a normal constituent of the arterial wall. We explored whether LPL affects (a) lipoprotein transport across bovine aortic endothelial cells or (b) lipoprotein binding to subendothelial cell matrix (retention). When bovine milk LPL was added to endothelial cell monolayers before addition of ...
متن کاملFamilial Hypercholesterolemia in Iran: A Novel Frameshift Mutation in Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor (LDLR) Gene
Background and Objective: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal trait, which is caused by mutations in Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor (LDLR) gene. FH penetrance is about 100% and worldwide prevalence for heterozygous subjects is almost 1 in 500 and for homozygous 1 in 1,000,000. The patients are at risk of premature coronary heart disease (CHD) due to defective LDLR a...
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 کاملLeu452His Mutation in Lipoprotein Lipase Gene Transfer Associated with Hypertriglyceridemia in Mice in vivo
Mutated mouse lipoprotein lipase (LPL) containing a leucine (L) to histidine (H) substitution at position 452 was transferred into mouse liver by hydrodynamics-based gene delivery (HD). Mutated-LPL (MLPL) gene transfer significantly increased the concentrations of plasma MLPL and triglyceride (TG) but significantly decreased the activity of plasma LPL. Moreover, the gene transfer caused adiposi...
