MeSH Heading: Hypobetalipoproteinemias
Tree Number(s): C16.320.565.398.500.440; C18.452.584.500.875.440; C18.452.584.563.500.440; C18.452.648.398.500.440
Unique ID: D006995
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D006995
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.
Entry Term(s): Familial Hypobetalipoproteinemia; Hypo beta Lipoproteinemia; Hypobetalipoproteinemia
Previous Indexing: Blood Protein Disorders (1966-1977); Lipid Metabolism, Inborn Errors (1966-1977); Lipoproteins (1966-1977); Lipoproteins, LDL (1972-1977)
