Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation between clinical phenotypes and pathogenic variants in two patients with familial hypercholesterolemia. METHODS: Both patients were subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES) with a focus on the analysis of genes associated with dyslipidemia. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing of the patients and their family members. RESULTS: WES revealed that the proband 1...
