Abstract

Abstract —We previously described a Sardinian family in which the probands had a severe form of hypercholesterolemia, suggestive of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). However, low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor activity in fibroblasts from these subjects and LDL binding ability were normal. The characteristics of the pedigree were consistent with an autosomal recessive trait. Sitosterolemia and pseudohomozygous hyperlipidemia were ruled out. A second Sardinian kindred with similar characteristics was identified. Probands showed severe hypercholesterolemia, whereas their parents and grandparents were normolipidemic. FH, familial defective apoprotein (apo) B, sitosterolemia, and cholesteryl ester storage disease were excluded by in vitro studies. We addressed the metabolic basis of this inherited disorder by studying the in vivo metabolism of LDL in 3 probands from these 2 families. 125 I-LDL turnover studies disclosed a marked reduction in the fractional catabolic rate (0.19±0.01 versus 0.36±0.03 pools per day, respectively; P <0.001) and a significant increase in the production rate [20.7±4.4 versus 14.0±2.4 mg · kg −1 · d −1 , respectively; P <0.01] of LDL apoB in the probands compared with normolipidemic controls. We then studied the in vivo biodistribution and tissue uptake of 99m technetium-labeled LDL in the probands and compared them with those in normal controls and 1 FH homozygote. The probands showed a significant reduction in hepatic LDL uptake, similar to that observed in the FH homozygote. A reduced uptake of LDL by the kidney and spleen was also observed in all patients. Our findings suggest that this recessive form of hypercholesterolemia is due to a marked reduction of in vivo LDL catabolism. This appears to be caused by a selective reduction in hepatic LDL uptake. We propose that in this new lipid disorder, a recessive defect causes a selective impairment of LDL receptor function in the liver.

  • Patients with ARH have normal LDLR but markedly reduced clearance of circulating LDL by the liver.

    “Patients with ARH have normal LDLR but markedly reduced clearance of circulating LDL by the liver (2,3).”
  • ARH is an adaptor protein required for efficient endocytosis of LDL receptors in selected tissues.

    “ARH is an adaptor protein required for efficient endocytosis of low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors (LDLRs) in selected tissues.”

    From The Modular Adaptor Protein ARH Is Required for Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Binding and Internalization but Not for LDL Receptor Clustering in Coated Pits (2004) · cites this paper as [3]

    The available indexed passages are repository metadata, not the article’s substantive text; the passage labeled Abstract lists keywords but contains no abstract. Searches for ARH as an adaptor protein and for LDL-receptor endocytosis found no passage addressing the claim, so this copy cannot verify it. (LLM, conf=0.73)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia is characterized by a cell type-specific defect in LDLR endocytosis.

    “Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia is characterized by a cell type-specific defect in low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) endocytosis.”

    From The Modular Adaptor Protein Autosomal Recessive Hypercholesterolemia (ARH) Promotes Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor Clustering into Clathrin-coated Pits (2005) · cites this paper as [5]

    The available indexed passages are repository metadata: the title identifies familial recessive hypercholesterolemia, and the passage labeled Abstract lists “LDL receptor” and “LDL turnover” only as keywords. Searches for cell-type specificity, LDLR endocytosis, and internalization found no passage addressing the claimed defect; the listed PDF's contents are not present in the passages. (LLM, conf=0.73)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia is caused by defective internalization of LDL receptors in the liver.

    “a disorder caused by defective internalization of low density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR) in the liver.”

    From ARH Is a Modular Adaptor Protein That Interacts with the LDL Receptor, Clathrin, and AP-2 (2002) · cites this paper as [3]

    The indexed copy shows the paper’s title and, in a repository entry labelled Abstract, keywords including “LDL receptor” and “LDL turnover.” It contains no passage about defective LDL-receptor internalization in the liver. Searches for that mechanism and for hepatic LDL uptake returned only repository metadata, so the claim cannot be verified from this copy. (LLM, conf=0.73)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • LDLR function is markedly impaired in hepatocytes of ARH patients.

    “This finding indicates that LDLR function is markedly impaired in the hepatocytes of ARH patients.”

    From ARH Is a Modular Adaptor Protein That Interacts with the LDL Receptor, Clathrin, and AP-2 (2002) · cites this paper as [3]

    The indexed passages contain a bibliographic record and keywords under an Abstract label, but no substantive passage about LDLR function in hepatocytes. Searches for hepatocyte LDLR impairment, hepatic receptor activity, and LDL turnover returned only that record, so our copy does not establish the attributed claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

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.
