ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA

Alternate names

ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA Is also known as hypobetalipoproteinemia, normotriglyceridemic, fhbl, hypobetalipoproteinemia, familial, acanthocytosis with hypobetalipoproteinemia, homozygous familial hypobetalipoproteinemia, bassen-kornzweig disease

Description

Abetalipoproteinemia/ homozygous familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (ABL/HoFHBL) is a severe form of familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (see this term) characterized by permanently low levels (below the 5th percentile) of apolipoprotein B and LDL cholesterol, and by growth delay, malabsorption, hepatomegaly, and neurological and neuromuscular manifestations.

Most common symptoms of ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA

  • Global developmental delay
  • Ataxia
  • Muscular hypotonia
  • Anemia
  • Visual impairment

ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA; ABL

Alternate names

ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA; ABL Is also known as microsomal triglyceride transfer protein deficiency, acanthocytosis, bassen-kornzweig syndrome, mtp deficiency

Description

Abetalipoproteinemia and familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FBHL ) are rare diseases characterized by hypocholesterolemia and malabsorption of lipid-soluble vitamins leading to retinal degeneration, neuropathy, and coagulopathy. Hepatic steatosis is also common. The root cause of both disorders is improper packaging and secretion of apolipoprotein B-containing particles. Obligate heterozygous parents of ABL patients usually have normal lipids consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance, whereas obligate heterozygous parents of FBHL patients typically have half normal levels of apoB-containing lipoproteins consistent with autosomal codominant inheritance (summary by Lee and Hegele, 2014).

Most common symptoms of ABETALIPOPROTEINEMIA; ABL

  • Ataxia
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Rod-cone dystrophy
  • Abnormality of the liver
  • Retinopathy
