Common genetic variants contribute to primary hypertriglyceridemia without differences between familial combined hyperlipidemia and isolated hypertriglyceridemia.
BACKGROUND The majority of hypertriglyceridemias are diagnosed as familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) and primary isolated hypertriglyceridemias. The contribution of common genetic variants in primary hypertriglyceridemias and the genetic difference between FCHL and isolated hypertriglyceridemias have not been thoroughly examined. METHODS AND RESULTS This study involved 580 patients with ...
متن کاملPlasma lipoproteins in familial combined hyperlipidemia and monogenic familial hypertriglyceridemia.
Plasma lipoprotein concentration, composition, and size were evaluated in two common familial forms of hypertriglyceridemia and compared with those in normal subjects. The very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were triglyceride-enriched in familial hypertriglyceridemia (triglyceride/apoprotein B ratio: 25.7 +/- 8.9) as compared to normal (9.6 +/- 12.2, P < 0.001) or familial combined hyperlipide...
متن کاملJoint linkage and association analysis with exome sequence data implicates SLC25A40 in hypertriglyceridemia.
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is a heritable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Investigating the genetics of HTG may identify new drug targets. There are ~35 known single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) that explain only ~10% of variation in triglyceride (TG) level. Because of the genetic heterogeneity of HTG, a family study design is optimal for identification of rare genetic variants with large...
متن کاملFamilial combined hyperlipidemia and insulin resistance : distant relatives linked by intra-abdominal fat?
Familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL), originally identified by Goldstein et al,1 Rose et al,2 and Nikkila et al3 in the early 1970s, is a metabolic defect in lipoprotein metabolism that is associated with a predominance of small, dense LDL particles and appears to be a consequence of hepatic overproduction of apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100). Characteristic lipoprotein abnormalities include i...
متن کاملDyslipidemia management in adults with diabetes.
PREVALENCE OF DYSLIPIDEMIA IN TYPE 2 DIABETES — The most common pattern of dyslipidemia in patients with type 2 diabetes patients is elevated triglyceride levels and decreased HDL cholesterol levels. The mean concentration of LDL cholesterol in those with type 2 diabetes is not significantly different from that in those individuals who do not have diabetes. However, qualitative changes in LDL c...
