Analysis of Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor Gene Mutations in A Family with Familial Hypercholesterolemia

2022-02-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common monogenic autosomal dominant hereditary disease, mainly caused by pathogenic mutations in the low-density lipoprotein receptor ( LDLR ) gene. It is characterized by severely elevated LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) levels, cutaneous xanthomatosis, and premature coronary heart disease. <h4>Materials: </h4> and Methods: Whole exome sequencing of the proban...
