Descriptor hipobetalipoproteinemias
Entry term(s) hipobetalipoproteinemia
Scope note: Afecciones con concentraciones sanguíneas anormalmente bajas de BETALIPOPROTEÍNAS (lipoproteínas de baja densidad o LDL). La hipobetalipoproteinemia es definida por valores de LDL iguales o inferiores al percentil 5 de la población. La afección comprende la forma autosómica dominante producida por mutación del gen de las APOLIPOPROTEÍNAS B, la forma recesiva por mutación de la proteína microsómica de transferencia de triglicéridos. Todas las formas se caracterizan por concentraciones bajas de LDL y malabsorción de la grasa de la dieta.

Scope note: Conditions with abnormally low levels of BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low density lipoproteins or LDL) in the blood. It is defined as LDL values equal to or less than the 5th percentile for the population. They include the autosomal dominant form involving mutation of the APOLIPOPROTEINS B gene, and the autosomal recessive form involving mutation of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. All are characterized by low LDL and dietary fat malabsorption.
