Abstract:
:On theoretical grounds, an apo E receptor defect should be manifested by the accumulation of lipoprotein remnants that are normally cleared by this receptor and cannot be processed by the normal apo B, E receptor (LDL-receptor). Furthermore, the defect should not be selective for a specific apo E phenotype since none of the isoforms would be cleared preferentially. Our search for such an occurrence led us to the discovery, in five members of a family of ten, of a unique dyslipoproteinemia mimicking type III. As in type III, plasma levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, VLDL-cholesterol, VLDL-triglycerides and apo E, as well as the VLDL-C/TG ratio, were high. LDL-cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol tended to be low. The clearance of plasma triglycerides after a fat load was impaired. Tubero-eruptive xanthomas, arcus corneae and manifestations of atherosclerosis were present in some individuals. In contrast to type III, the dyslipoproteinemia occurred in subjects bearing three different apo E phenotypes: E4/2, E4/3 and E3/2. VLDL-apo B levels were markedly increased, the VLDL-C/VLDL-B ratio was low and a double pre-beta band was present on lipoprotein electrophoresis. In spite of high apo E and borderline high apo CIII plasma levels, levels of the lipoprotein particles LpCIII:B and LpE:B, which characterize type III, were not raised. Rapid weight loss or treatment with a fibrate was observed to normalize the lipoprotein profile. It is surmised that the apo E-rich lipoprotein particles accumulating in this type III phenocopy with "hyperapoprebetalipoproteinemia" could be those that are normally cleared by an apo E receptor.
