The molecular genetic basis and diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia in Denmark.

Danish medical bulletin - 1 Nov 2002

Jensen Henrik Kjoerulf

Abstract excerpt

Normal function of the hepatic low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor is obligate for normal levels of plasma LDL cholesterol. The LDL receptor regulates the concentration of plasma LDL cholesterol by internalizing apolipoprotein B-100- and apolipoprotein E-containing lipoproteins by receptor-mediated endocytosis. Mutations in the gene encoding the LDL receptor protein give rise to one of the most common...
