Abstract

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the hydrolysis of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. Numerous LPL gene mutations have been described as a cause of familial chylomicronemia in various populations. In general, allelic heterogeneity is observed in LPL deficiency in different populations. However, a founder effect has been reported in certain populations, such as French Canadians. Although familial chylomicronemia is observed in Morocco, the molecular basis for the disease remains unknown. Here, we report two unrelated Moroccan families of Berber ancestry, ascertained independently in Holland and France. In both probands, familial chylomicronemia manifested in infancy and was complicated with acute pancreatitis at age 2 years. Both probands were homozygous for a Ser259Arg mutation, which results in the absence of LPL catalytic activity both in vivo and in vitro. In heterozygous relatives, a partial decrease in plasma LPL activity was observed, sometimes associated with combined hyperlipidemia. This mutation previously unreported in other populations segregated on an identical haplotype, rarely observed in Caucasians, in both families. Therefore, LPL deficiency is a cause of familial chylomicronemia in Morocco and may result from a founder effect in patients of Berber ancestry

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
