Type V hyperlipoproteinaemia: a family study. 1975

J Raleigh, and J Reddy, and D Friedlander, and R Hope

Family screening for hyperlipoproteinaemia was undertaken when a patient presented with myocardial infarction in association with Type V hyperlipoproteinaemia. The clinical features of this unusual form of hyperlipoproteinaemia are discussed together with its frequency in the general population and in relatives of affected patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006949 Hyperlipidemias Conditions with excess LIPIDS in the blood. Hyperlipemia,Hyperlipidemia,Lipemia,Lipidemia,Hyperlipemias,Lipemias,Lipidemias
D008079 Lipoproteins, VLDL 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. Pre-beta-Lipoprotein,Prebeta-Lipoprotein,Prebeta-Lipoproteins,Very Low Density Lipoprotein,Very-Low-Density Lipoprotein,Very-Low-Density Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein VLDL II,Lipoproteins, VLDL I,Lipoproteins, VLDL III,Lipoproteins, VLDL1,Lipoproteins, VLDL2,Lipoproteins, VLDL3,Pre-beta-Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein, Very-Low-Density,Lipoproteins, Very-Low-Density,Pre beta Lipoprotein,Pre beta Lipoproteins,Prebeta Lipoprotein,Prebeta Lipoproteins,VLDL Lipoproteins,VLDL1 Lipoproteins,VLDL2 Lipoproteins,VLDL3 Lipoproteins,Very Low Density Lipoproteins
