Molecular and metabolic basis for the metabolic disorder normotriglyceridemic abetalipoproteinemia.
We have previously described a disorder, normotriglyceridemic abetalipoproteinemia, that is characterized by the virtual absence of plasma low density lipoproteins and complete absence of apoB-100, but with apparently normal secretion of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins containing apoB-48. The patient's plasma lipoproteins were shown on polyacrylamide gels and by antibody mapping to have a new tr...
متن کاملCharacterization of human lysosomal neuraminidase defines the molecular basis of the metabolic storage disorder sialidosis.
Neuraminidases (sialidases) have an essential role in the removal of terminal sialic acid residues from sialoglycoconjugates and are distributed widely in nature. The human lysosomal enzyme occurs in complex with beta-galactosidase and protective protein/cathepsin A (PPCA), and is deficient in two genetic disorders: sialidosis, caused by a structural defect in the neuraminidase gene, and galact...
متن کاملSuspended animation: the molecular basis of metabolic depression
STOREY, K. B. 1988. Suspended animation: the molecular basis of metabolic depression. Can. J. Zool. 66: 124 132. An impressive array of organisms is capable of radically depressing basal metabolic rate and entering a hypometabolic state characterized by a marked reduction of many normal physiological functions. Environmental cues are often the trigger: low oxygen, low temperature, or lack of wa...
متن کاملKlinefelter Syndrome and Metabolic Disorder
Hypogonadism is reported to be an independent risk factor for the development of central obesity in men, and epidemiologic studies indicate an inverse relation between serum testosterone and obesity [1]. In patients with prostate cancer, androgen deprivation therapies increased body fat mass [2], whereas it is known that androgen can prevent the differentiation of pluripotent cells into an adip...
