Back (Answer)

familial Hypercholesterolemia (Type 2a) - DEFECTIVE/ DEFECIENT LDL receptor (+) xanthalesma and planar (tendon) xanthomas

Back (Answer)

familial Dysbetalipoproteinemia / type 3 hyperlipoproteinemia • accumulation of plasma VLDL rich in cholesterol and chylomicron (VLDL!!!) • presence of apo E/E2 • involves both endogenous and exogenous pathway in lipoprotein metabolism

Back (Answer)

abetalipoproteinemia • autosomal recessive disorder • DEFECTIVE APO - B SYNTHESIS • defecient fat soluble vitamins

Back (Answer)

abetalipoproteinemia • autosomal recessive disorder • DEFECTIVE APO - B SYNTHESIS • deficient fat soluble vitamins • associated with deficiency of MICRODOMSL TAG TRANSFER PROTEIN (MTP) • characterized by CEREBELLAR ATAXIA, ACANTHOCYTOSIS , FAT MALABSORPTION

Front (Question)

it is an inherited disorder of lipid metabolism a. hypolipoproteinemia b. niemann pick disease c. tangler’s disease d. lipoprotein lipase deficiency

Back (Answer)

Niemann pick disease (Lipid storage disease) • inherited disorder of lipid metabolism • acccumulations of spingomyelin in the bone marrow ,spleen and lymph nodes • involves deficiency of enzyme responsible for REMOVING PHOSPHORYLCHOLINE FROM SPINGOMYELIN

Back (Answer)

TANGLER’S DISEASE • low blood Cholesterol • yellow or orange tonsils and pharynx • HDL is abnormal and significantly reduced due to increased HDL catabolism

Back (Answer)

Lecithin Cholesterol Acyl transferase (LCAT) Deficiency - clinical finidngs : Corneal opacities, normochromic anemia , and renal failure in young adults • FISH EYE DISEASE is milder form of LCAT deficiency
