Hypertriglyceridemia is the presence of high amounts of triglycerides in the blood.Triglycerides are the most abundant fatty molecule in most organisms. Hypertriglyceridemia occurs in various physiologic conditions and in various diseases, and high triglyceride levels are associated with atherosclerosis, even in the absence of hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol levels) and predispose to ...
Beta-ketothiolase deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive metabolic disorder in which the body cannot properly process the amino acid isoleucine or the products of lipid breakdown. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Along with SCOT deficiency , it belongs to a group of disorders called ketone utilisation disorders.
Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency is a disorder of lipoprotein metabolism. [1] The disease has two forms: [2] Familial LCAT deficiency, in which there is complete LCAT deficiency, and Fish-eye disease, in which there is a partial deficiency. [3] Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase catalyzes the formation of cholesterol esters in ...
