APOE and familial hypercholesterolemia.

Current opinion in lipidology - 1 Aug 2024

Civeira Fernando, Martín César, Cenarro Ana

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia is a common cause of cardiovascular disease. In addition to the classic genes that cause hypercholesterolemia, LDLR, APOB and PCSK9 , a new locus has emerged as a candidate to be the cause of this hyperlipidemia, the p.(Leu167del) mutation in the APOE gene. RECENT FINDINGS: Various studies have demonstrated the involvement of the p.(Leu167del) mutation in...
