MeSH Heading: Hyperlipoproteinemia Type III
Tree Number(s): C16.320.565.398.483; C18.452.584.500.500.644.485; C18.452.584.563.483; C18.452.648.398.483
Unique ID: D006952
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D006952
Scope Note: An autosomal recessively inherited disorder characterized by the accumulation of intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL or broad-beta-lipoprotein). IDL has a CHOLESTEROL to TRIGLYCERIDES ratio greater than that of VERY-LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS. This disorder is due to mutation of APOLIPOPROTEINS E, a receptor-binding component of VLDL and CHYLOMICRONS, resulting in their reduced clearance and high plasma levels of both cholesterol and triglycerides.
Entry Term(s): Autosomal Recessive Hypercholesterolemia; Broad Beta Disease; Dysbetalipoproteinemia; Dysbetalipoproteinemia, Familial; Familial Dysbetalipoproteinemia; Familial Hypercholesterolemia with Hyperlipemia; Hypercholesterolemia, Autosomal Recessive; Hyperlipoproteinemia, Broad-beta; Hyperlipoproteinemia, Type III
