Chylomicron retention disease is a disorder of fat absorption. [1] It is associated with SAR1B . [ 2 ] Mutations in SAR1B prevent the release of chylomicrons in the circulation which leads to nutritional and developmental problems. [ 3 ]
Chylomicron structure ApoA, ApoB, ApoC, ApoE (apolipoproteins); T (triacylglycerol); C (cholesterol); green (phospholipids). Chylomicrons transport lipids absorbed from the intestine to adipose, cardiac, and skeletal muscle tissue, where their triglyceride components are hydrolyzed by the activity of the lipoprotein lipase, allowing the released free fatty acids to be absorbed by the tissues.
Symptoms are caused by an increase in the level of chylomicron in the retinal circulation. [4] Though visual acuity is not affected, electroretinogram amplitude may be decreased. [2] Since acute increase in triglyceride may be asymptomatic at first, retinal signs of LR are an important clinical sign of hypertriglyceridemia. [5]
The signs and symptoms of abetalipoproteinemia appear in the first few months of life (because pancreatic lipase is not active in this period). They can include failure to gain weight and grow at the expected rate ( failure to thrive ); diarrhea; abnormal spiny red blood cells ( acanthocytosis ); and fatty, foul-smelling stools ( steatorrhea ...
Lipoprotein lipase deficiency is a genetic disorder in which a person has a defective gene for lipoprotein lipase, which leads to very high triglycerides, which in turn causes stomach pain and deposits of fat under the skin, and which can lead to problems with the pancreas and liver, which in turn can lead to diabetes.
Remnant cholesterol is the cholesterol content of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, which consist of very low-density lipoproteins and intermediate-density lipoproteins with chylomicron remnants. [ 2 ] [ 5 ] Remnant cholesterol is primarily chylomicron and VLDL, and each remnant particle contains about 40 times more cholesterol than LDL.
Apolipoprotein C-III also known as apo-CIII, and apolipoprotein C3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the APOC3 gene.Apo-CIII is secreted by the liver as well as the small intestine, and is found on triglyceride-rich lipoproteins such as chylomicrons, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), and remnant cholesterol.
