An autosomal recessive disorder of lipid metabolism. It is caused by mutation of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein that catalyzes the transport of lipids (TRIGLYCERIDES; CHOLESTEROL ESTERS; PHOSPHOLIPIDS) and is required in the secretion of BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low density lipoproteins or LDL). Features include defective intestinal lipid absorption, very low serum cholesterol level, and near absent LDL.
Erythrocytes with protoplasmic projections giving the cell a thorny appearance.
Major structural proteins of triacylglycerol-rich LIPOPROTEINS. There are two forms, apolipoprotein B-100 and apolipoprotein B-48, both derived from a single gene. ApoB-100 expressed in the liver is found in low-density lipoproteins (LIPOPROTEINS, LDL; LIPOPROTEINS, VLDL). ApoB-48 expressed in the intestine is found in CHYLOMICRONS. They are important in the biosynthesis, transport, and metabolism of triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins. Plasma Apo-B levels are high in atherosclerotic patients but non-detectable in ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA.
Conditions with abnormally low levels of BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low density lipoproteins or LDL) in the blood. It is defined as LDL values equal to or less than the 5th percentile for the population. They include the autosomal dominant form involving mutation of the APOLIPOPROTEINS B gene, and the autosomal recessive form involving mutation of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. All are characterized by low LDL and dietary fat malabsorption.
Conditions with abnormally low levels of LIPOPROTEINS in the blood. This may involve any of the lipoprotein subclasses, including ALPHA-LIPOPROTEINS (high-density lipoproteins); BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low-density lipoproteins); and PREBETA-LIPOPROTEINS (very-low-density lipoproteins).
Protein components on the surface of LIPOPROTEINS. They form a layer surrounding the hydrophobic lipid core. There are several classes of apolipoproteins with each playing a different role in lipid transport and LIPID METABOLISM. These proteins are synthesized mainly in the LIVER and the INTESTINES.
A class of lipoproteins of small size (4-13 nm) and dense (greater than 1.063 g/ml) particles. HDL lipoproteins, synthesized in the liver without a lipid core, accumulate cholesterol esters from peripheral tissues and transport them to the liver for re-utilization or elimination from the body (the reverse cholesterol transport). Their major protein component is APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I. HDL also shuttle APOLIPOPROTEINS C and APOLIPOPROTEINS E to and from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during their catabolism. HDL plasma level has been inversely correlated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Lipid-protein complexes involved in the transportation and metabolism of lipids in the body. They are spherical particles consisting of a hydrophobic core of TRIGLYCERIDES and CHOLESTEROL ESTERS surrounded by a layer of hydrophilic free CHOLESTEROL; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; and APOLIPOPROTEINS. Lipoproteins are classified by their varying buoyant density and sizes.
A class of lipoproteins of small size (18-25 nm) and light (1.019-1.063 g/ml) particles with a core composed mainly of CHOLESTEROL ESTERS and smaller amounts of TRIGLYCERIDES. The surface monolayer consists mostly of PHOSPHOLIPIDS, a single copy of APOLIPOPROTEIN B-100, and free cholesterol molecules. The main LDL function is to transport cholesterol and cholesterol esters to extrahepatic tissues.
Transport proteins that carry specific substances in the blood or across cell membranes.
A class of lipoproteins of very light (0.93-1.006 g/ml) large size (30-80 nm) particles with a core composed mainly of TRIGLYCERIDES and a surface monolayer of PHOSPHOLIPIDS and CHOLESTEROL into which are imbedded the apolipoproteins B, E, and C. VLDL facilitates the transport of endogenously made triglycerides to extrahepatic tissues. As triglycerides and Apo C are removed, VLDL is converted to INTERMEDIATE-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS, then to LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS from which cholesterol is delivered to the extrahepatic tissues.

Liver-specific inactivation of the abetalipoproteinemia gene completely abrogates very low density lipoprotein/low density lipoprotein production in a viable conditional knockout mouse. (1/80)

Conventional knockout of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein large subunit (lMTP) gene is embryonic lethal in the homozygous state in mice. We have produced a conditional lMTP knockout mouse by inserting loxP sequences flanking exons 5 and 6 by gene targeting. Homozygous floxed mice were born live with normal plasma lipids. Intravenous injection of an adenovirus harboring Cre recombinase (AdCre1) produced deletion of exons 5 and 6 and disappearance of lMTP mRNA and immunoreactive protein in a liver-specific manner. There was also disappearance of plasma apolipoprotein (apo) B-100 and marked reduction in apoB-48 levels. Wild-type mice showed no response, and heterozygous mice, an intermediate response, to AdCre1. Wild-type mice doubled their plasma cholesterol level following a high cholesterol diet. This hypercholesterolemia was abolished in AdCre1-treated lMTP-/- mice, the result of a complete absence of very low/intermediate/low density lipoproteins and a slight reduction in high density lipoprotein. Heterozygous mice showed an intermediate lipoprotein phenotype. The rate of accumulation of plasma triglyceride following Triton WR1339 treatment in lMTP-/- mice was <10% that in wild-type animals, indicating a failure of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein production. Pulse-chase experiments using hepatocytes isolated from wild-type and lMTP-/- mice revealed a failure of apoB secretion in lMTP-/- animals. Therefore, the liver-specific inactivation of the lMTP gene completely abrogates apoB-100 and very low/intermediate/low density lipoprotein production. These conditional knockout mice are a useful in vivo model for studying the role of MTP in apoB biosynthesis and the biogenesis of apoB-containing lipoproteins.  (+info)

Abetalipoproteinaemia. A case report with pathological studies. (2/80)

The clinical and pathological features of a case of abetalipoproteinaemia in a 38-year-old patient are described in detail. A feature not previously recorded was a marked reduction in the velocity of ocular horizontal saccadic movements. Pathological studies revealed an active chronic demyelinating process. The patient showed no response to large doses of vitamin E. The rationale for this therapy, and the possible reasons for its failure are discussed.  (+info)

Abetalipoproteinemia caused by maternal isodisomy of chromosome 4q containing an intron 9 splice acceptor mutation in the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein gene. (3/80)

Uniparental disomy (UPD), a rare inheritance of 2 copies of a single chromosome homolog or a region of a chromosome from one parent, can result in various autosomal recessive diseases. Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is a rare autosomal recessive deficiency of apoB-containing lipoproteins caused by a microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) deficiency. In this study, we describe a patient with ABL inherited as a homozygous intron 9 splice acceptor G(-1)-to-A mutation of the transfer protein gene. This mutation alters the splicing of the mRNA, resulting in a 36 amino acids, in-frame deletion of sequence encoded by exon 10. We analyzed chromosome 4, including MTP gene (4q22-24), using short tandem repeat markers. The proband has only his mother's genes in chromosome 4q spanning a 150-centimorgan region; ie, segmental maternal isodisomy 4q21-35, probably due to mitotic recombination. Nonpaternity between the proband and his father was excluded using 6 polymorphic markers from different chromosomes (paternity probability, 0.999). Maternal isodisomy (maternal UPD 4q) was the basis for homozygosity of the MTP gene mutation in this patient.  (+info)

Progress towards understanding the role of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein in apolipoprotein-B lipoprotein assembly. (4/80)

The microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is necessary for the proper assembly of the apolipoprotein B containing lipoproteins, very low density lipoprotein and chylomicrons. Recent research has significantly advanced our understanding of the role of MTP in these pathways at the molecular and cellular level. Biochemical studies suggest that initiation of lipidation of the nascent apolipoprotein B polypeptide may occur through a direct association with MTP. This early lipidation may be required to allow the nascent polypeptide to fold properly and therefore avoid ubiquitination and degradation. Concerning the addition of core neutral lipids in the later stages of lipoprotein assembly, cell culture studies show that MTP lipid transfer activity is not required for this to occur for apolipoprotein B-100 containing lipoproteins. Likewise, MTP does not appear to directly mediate addition of core neutral lipid to nascent apoB-48 particles. However, new data indicate that MTP is required to produce triglyceride rich droplets in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum which may supply the core lipids for conversion of nascent, dense apoB-48 particles to mature VLDL. In addition, assembly of dense apolipoprotein B-48 containing lipoproteins has been observed in mouse liver in the absence of MTP. As a result of these new data, an updated model for the role of MTP in lipoprotein assembly is proposed.  (+info)

Novel mutations in the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein gene causing abetalipoproteinemia. (5/80)

Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is an inherited disease characterized by the virtual absence of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins from plasma. Only limited numbers of families have been screened for mutations in the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) gene. To clarify the genetic basis of clinical diversity of ABL, mutations of the MTP gene have been screened in 4 unrelated patients with ABL. Three novel mutations have been identified: a frameshift mutation caused by a single adenine deletion at position 1389 of the cDNA, and a missense mutation, Asn780Tyr, each in homozygous forms; and a splice site mutation, 2218-2A-->G, in a compound heterozygous form. The frameshift and splice site mutations are predicted to encode truncated forms of MTP. When transiently expressed in Cos-1 cells, the Asn780Tyr mutant MTP bound protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) but displayed negligible MTP activity. It is of interest that the patient having the Asn780Tyr mutation, a 27-year-old male, has none of the manifestations characteristic of classic ABL even though his plasma apoB and vitamin E were virtually undetectable. These results indicated that defects of the MTP gene are the proximal cause of ABL.  (+info)

Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100: a lesson from homozygous and heterozygous patients. (6/80)

Familial defective apolipoprotein B-100 (FDB) is a genetic disorder caused by a substitution of glutamine for arginine at residue 3500 of the apolipoprotein B-100 molecule. We have identified 23 heterozygotes and one homozygote for FDB (frequency 1:20) in a group of 510 patients with hypercholesterolemia. Mean age of the patients (18 females and 6 males) was 46 years. The diagnosis of FDB was based on point mutation PCR analysis of exon 26 of the apo B gene. Plasma lipids in heterozygous patients were: total cholesterol 8.76+/-1.2 mmol/l, triglycerides 1.42+/-0.5 mmol/l, HDL-cholesterol 1.43+/-0.3 mmol/l, LDL-cholesterol 6.69+/-1.2 mmol/l, apoB 1.69+/-0.4 g/l, Lp(a) 0.26+/-0.2 g/l. The most frequent apoE genotype was 3/3 (19 patients), apoE 3/4 genotype was found in 3 patients and one person had apoE 2/3. Xanthelasma palpebrarum was present in 4 patients and tendon xanthomas in 3 patients including the homozygote. Premature manifestation of coronary heart disease was revealed in 3 patients. Sixteen patients were treated with statins, a combination of statin and resin was used in 2 patients (including the homozygote), whereas six patients were treated with the diet only. We conclude that although the plasma lipid levels of total and LDL cholesterol in FDB patients are lower than in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia, the patients with FDB suffer from premature atherosclerosis. The therapeutic approach to FDB individuals and patients with familial hypercholesterolemia is very similar.  (+info)

A study of the abnormal lipoproteins in abetalipoproteinemia. (7/80)

The serum lipoproteins of five patients with abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) were separated by ultracentrifugation and then analyzed either intact or after delipidation. In accord with previous findings, all of the patients lacked serum particles with the characteristics of normal low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and of the LDL apoprotein as assessed by immunochemical methods. Each patient exhibited on every examination an abnormal particle, "LDL", which had the flotational properties of LDL, the polypeptide makeup of high-density lipoproteins HDL, the spectral and morphological characteristics of neither LDL nor HDL, and a relatively low content of cholesteryl esters. The HDL were abnormal in having a marked decrease in their total plasma content, an altered proportion of the subclasses HDL2 and HDL3, and a peculiar polypeptide distribution, comprising both normal and additional components, usually not seen in normal controls. The patients also exhibited a decrease of plasma lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase (LCAT) activity which probably accounted for the low content of cholesteryl esters in both "LDL" and HDL, and in turn for the unusual appearance of "LDL" on electron microscopy. It is concluded that ABL is a disorder affecting all serum lipoprotein classes. Whether the abetalipoproteinemia previously described and noted in the current studies is related to or independent of the abnormalities observed in the other lipoproteins was not established. How the deficiency of LCAT activity, observed in all patients studied, contributed to some of the observed structural lipoprotein abnormalities also remained undetermined.  (+info)

Measurement of human high density lipoprotein apolipoprotein A-1 in serum by radioimmunoassay. (8/80)

A sensitive and specific double antibody radioimmunoassay for the major apolipoprotein (apo A-I) of human serum high density lipoprotein (HDL) was developed. Initial studies indicated that direct measurements of apo A-I concentration in whole untreated sera or isolated high density lipoprotein fractions yielded variable results, which were lower than those obtained in the corresponding samples which had been subjected to delipidation. Subsequently, it was observed that heating diluted sera or HDL for 3 hr at 52 degrees C prior to assay resulted in maximal increases in apo A-I immunoreactivity to levels comparable to those found in the delipidated specimens. This simple procedure permitted multiple sera to be assayed efficiently with full recovery of apo A-I.  (+info)

Abetalipoproteinemia is a disorder that interferes with the normal absorption of fat and fat-soluble vitamins from food. It is caused by a mutation in microsomal triglyceride transfer protein resulting in deficiencies in the apolipoproteins B-48 and B-100, which are used in the synthesis and exportation of chylomicrons and VLDL respectively. It is not to be confused with familial dysbetalipoproteinemia. It is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. Often symptoms will arise that indicate the body is not absorbing or making the lipoproteins that it needs. These symptoms usually appear en masse, meaning that they happen all together, all the time. These symptoms come as follows: Failure to thrive/Failure to grow in infancy Steatorrhea/Fatty, pale stools Frothy stools Foul smelling stools Protruding abdomen Intellectual disability/developmental delay Developmental coordination disorder, evident by age ten Muscle weakness Slurred speech Scoliosis (curvature of the spine) Progressive decreased vision ...

Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein large subunit is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MTTP gene. MTP encodes the large subunit of the heterodimeric microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) completes the heterodimeric microsomal triaglyceride transfer protein, which has been shown to play a central role in lipoprotein assembly. Mutations in MTP can cause abetalipoproteinemia. Apolipoprotein B48 on chylomicra and Apolipoprotein B100 on LDL, IDL, and VLDL are important for MTP binding.

Many syndromes feature pigmentary retinal changes consistent with RP. In fact, some of the genes known to be mutated in these syndromes can be mutated in patients with isolated RP. For example, BBS3 and BBS9 are linked to Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) which is characterized by RP, obesity, polydactyly, renal malformation, and hypogenitalism, but were also found to be mutated in patients with nonsyndromic RP. Other syndromes known to manifest with RP or RP-like lesions include Usher syndrome, Cohen syndrome, Cockayne syndrome, Refsum syndrome, neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, and abetalipoproteinemia. ...

Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is required for the assembly and cellular secretion of apolipoprotein B (apoB) -containing lipoproteins from the liver and intestine. The secretion pattern of apoB-containing lipoproteins is likely to influence the VLDL and LDL levels in plasma. By initial opportunistic screening for polymorphic sites in the regulatory region of the MTP gene by gene sequencing in 20 healthy male subjects, a common functional G/T polymorphism was detected 493 bp upstream from the transcriptional start point. There was differential binding of unique nuclear proteins at this site, as shown by electrophoretic mobility shift assay. The G variant seemed to bind two or three nuclear proteins that do not bind to the T variant. Expression studies with minimal promoter constructs linked to the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter and transfected into HepG2 cells revealed marked enhancement of transcriptional activity with the T variant. The prevalence of the MTP promoter
In patients with HoFH, lomitapide led to a significant reduction of LDL-c levels and to achievement of EAS targets in many patients, while CV event rates correlated with LDL-c levels.
To the Editor:. In overweight subjects, an elevated supply of intracellular lipid stimulates the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP)-dependent assembly of apoB-containing lipoproteins in both intestinal and hepatic tissues, with subsequent secretion into the circulation. The severity of the dyslipidemia which results is however highly variable among overweight subjects, suggesting that genetic background may modulate the dyslipidemic effect of excess weight. In this context, a functional polymorphism in the MTP gene promoter region was recently described in which homozygotes for a G-to-T substitution, located 493 bp upstream from the transcription initiation site, display lower plasma levels of apoB-containing lipoproteins than carriers of the −493G allele. Hypothetically, such a functional polymorphism of the MTP promoter may attenuate the dyslipidemic effects of excess body weight and, in this way, equally attenuate the development of atherosclerotic disease in overweight ...
Rev Esp Cardiol 2004 Jun; 57 (6): 557-69, PMID: 15225502. The one disease associated with the greatest morbidity and mortality in industrialized countries is coronary heart disease (CHD). High density lipoprotein (HDL) is one of the most important independent protective factors for the arteriosclerosis which underlies CHD. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is an enzyme that confers antioxidant properties to HDL. In vitro, PON1 hydrolyzes a large variety of endogenous or exogenous substrates, some of which are clearly involved in the progression of arteriosclerosis. A close relationship between PON1 deficiency and accelerated progression of arteriosclerosis has been found in animal models. Moreover, PON1 activity is reduced in high oxidative stress diseases such as CHD, dyslipoproteinemias, inflammatory processes, diabetes and certain neuropathies. Reduced PON1 enzyme activity is associated with several arteriosclerosis-related diseases. The most thoroughly studied genetic variant of PON1 is PON1-192, in ...

Background. Dirlotapide causes body weight reduction in obese dogs primarily due to reductions in food intake.. Aims. To investigate the efficacy and safety of dirlotapide in overweight Labradors in two masked, parallel-design studies. Methods. Study A: 42 dogs randomised to 0.0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 or 0.4 mg dirlotapide/kg/day orally for 4 weeks. Study B: 72 dogs randomised to nine treatments: placebo (24 weeks); dirlotapide (24 weeks) followed by placebo (28 weeks); or dirlotapide (52 weeks); on diets containing 5%, 10% or 15% fat, offered in excess of maintenance requirements. Dogs were weighed and dirlotapide dose (initially 0.1 mg/kg) was adjusted monthly. After 24 weeks, dosages were reduced to stabilise body weight. Body composition (body fat, lean tissue and bone mineral content) was monitored using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Multiple blood samples were collected for haematology and biochemistry.. Results. Study A: body weight and food intake decreased asymptotically with dose, ...
Dyslipoproteinemia encompasses a range of disorders of lipoprotein metabolism that include both abnormally high and low lipoprotein concentrations, as well as abnormalities in the composition of the lipoprotein particles. Dyslipoproteinemias are clinically relevant in older adults primarily due to their role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), which includes coronary heart disease (CHD), cerebrovascular disease, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and chronic renal disease. Older patients account for greater than 75% of total cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality and 50% of all acute myocardial infarctions (MIs) in the United States. Although CVD morbidity and mortality have declined over recent decades, the percent reduction of CVD events is nearly 50% less in older patient groups. Dyslipidemia is a risk factor for ASCVD in older adults aged 60 to 80, and strong outcome data support pharmacologic therapy in this age group; however, the data are more limited ...
Human genetic research can pinpoint drug targets by identifying complete loss-of-function mutations affecting a human gene product that, in turn, underlie a favorable phenotype.1 Most small-molecule oral drugs, monoclonal antibodies, or RNA-based strategies act by inhibiting a selected molecular target, thereby pharmacologically mimicking the naturally advantageous genetic deficiency. The fields of atherosclerosis and lipoprotein biology have several examples of drugs whose raison dêtre is to impersonate a naturally occurring, genetically determined beneficial phenotype.. Article see p 677. For instance, 3 new classes of agents approved in the United States reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels through nonstatin mechanisms.2,3 These include (1) an oral inhibitor of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), namely lomitapide (Juxtapid; Aegerion); (2) an injectable antisense oligonucleotide against apolipoprotein (apo) B, namely mipomersen (Kynamro; ISIS-Genzyme); and (3) ...
Eye movement abnormalities in familial mental retardation syndrome should lead to the suspicion of a storage disorder, including Niemann Pick disease type C, Gauchers disease, abetalipoproteinemia and Wilsons disease. The eye movement abnormalities in our two patients were suggestive of Niemann Pick disease type C, characterized by initial loss of voluntary vertical eye movements and subsequent loss of horizontal eye movements, with preservation of the vestibulo-ocular response. The characteristics of eye movements in storage disorders are different. In Gauchers disease a progressive horizontal gaze palsy, in abetalipoproteinemia a particular type of internuclear ophthalmoplegia with nystagmus of the adducting eye and in Wilsons disease slowing of saccades may be observed ...
The term acanthocytosis is derived from the Greek for thorn and is used to describe a peculiar spiky appearance of erythrocytes. Acanthocytosis is found to be associated with at least three hereditary neurological disorders that are generally referred to as neuroacanthocytosis. Abetalipoproteinaemia is an autosomal recessive condition, characterised by absence of serum apolipoprotein B containing lipoproteins leading to fat intolerance and fat-soluble vitamin deficiency. This results in a progressive spinocerebellar ataxia with peripheral neuropathy and retinitis pigmentosa. Chorea-acanthocytosis is also an autosomal recessive condition and is characterised by chorea, orofaciolingual dyskinesia, dysphagia, dysarthria, areflexia, seizures and dementia. Some of its features, including choreic movements, peripheral neuropathy with areflexia, elevated serum creatine kinase levels and myopathy are shared by another form of neuroacanthocytosis, McLeod syndrome. Patients affected by this X-linked disorder
Introduction: Lomitapide is a microsomal triglyceride transfer protein inhibitor indicated as adjunctive therapy for adults with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH). LOWER is a global observational registry to prospectively assess long-term, safety and effectiveness of lomitapide in clinical practice. Adult HoFH patients treated with lomitapide in clinical practice are eligible.. Results: As of March 1, 2016, 143 patients had been enrolled in the USA, Canada, EU and Taiwan (Table); 139 patients had lomitapide exposure data (median 17.7 months, range 0.3-35.9 months). Globally, median lomitapide dose was 10 mg QD (range 5 mg QOD-40 mg QD, 6-33 months). A ≥ 50% reduction in LDL-C at any time post-baseline was measured in 58% of patients; 62% of patients achieved LDL-C , 100 mg/dL and 37% achieved LDL-C , 70 mg/dL. AEs were experienced by 73% of patients; GI disorders were the most common (45%). Serious AEs occurred in 21 (15%) patients. Thirty-three (24%) patients discontinued ...

Red blood cells are disc shaped cells that carry oxygen in the blood. There are various disorders that can lead to an abnormal shape of these cells. The term acanthocytosis describes the presence of distorted red blood cells (acanthocytes) in the blood. The cells become denser and irregularly shaped with spiculated (sharp spur-like) protrusions. The normal shape of red blood cells are determined by certain proteins in its cell membrane. When there are certain defects or deficiencies of these proteins, abnormal shapes of the red blood cells are seen. However, these proteins are also common to other types of cells in the body like the nerve cells and brain tissue. This collectively leads to certain conditions marked by abnormalities of both the red blood cells and disturbances in brain function.. ...
