Hyperlipoproteinemia Type III

Hyperlipoproteinemi typ III

Svensk definition

En ganska ovanlig form av ärftlig hyperlipemi, kännetecknad av förekomst av lipoproteiner med onormal sammansättning. De viktigaste onormala lipoproteinerna kallas beta-VLDL och har ett annat apoproteininnehåll och större andel kolesterol i förhållande till triglycerid än normalt VLDL.

Engelsk definition

An autosomal recessively inherited disorder characterized by the accumulation of intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL or broad-beta-lipoprotein). IDL has a CHOLESTEROL to TRIGLYCERIDES ratio greater than that of VERY-LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS. This disorder is due to mutation of APOLIPOPROTEINS E, a receptor-binding component of VLDL and CHYLOMICRONS, resulting in their reduced clearance and high plasma levels of both cholesterol and triglycerides.
