Tularik, Inc. (Two Corporate Dr., South San Francisco, CA 94080; Tel: 650/825-7000, Fax: 650/825-7303; Website: www.tularik.com) researchers, working in collaboration with scientists from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, have discovered two genes responsible for a rare human genetic disorder called sitosterolemia. Patients with sitosterolemia have excessive absorption and inadequate excretion into the bile, which results in dangerously high cholesterol levels. The discovery of the sitosterolemia genes was reported in the December 1 issue of Science. The newly discovered genes encode two previously unknown protein molecules that are members of the class of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter proteins. The proteins, ABCG5 and ABCG8, bind cholesterol in the liver and small intestine. In the intestines, the proteins block absorption of dietary cholesterol. In the liver, the proteins help excrete cholesterol into bile.

Advances on the Cholesterol Front
By Dustin Mark Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is caused by a mutation in the gene for the LDL receptor, which is instrumental in the removal of LDL particles from the blood. These individuals tend to have cholesterol levels around 300 mg/dL. The frequency of FH heterozygotes (who have half of their LDL receptors damaged) is roughly 1:500. Like all people with high cholesterol, these individuals are increasingly subject to atherosclerosis, often manifested in coronary heart disease. FH homozygotes, in whom LDL receptors are defective, have such severe hypercholesterolemia (around 650 mg/dL), that they often die from heart attacks in early childhood. The second most common disease in the group, familial ligand defective apoB-100, is less severe than FH and has an incidence around 1:1000 for heterozygotes. This disease results from a defect in the ligand for the LDL receptor, apoB-100 (found in LDL particles), which decreases the ability of LDL receptor to clear LDL particles from the blood, resulting in abnormally elevated LDL serum levels. The most recently discovered disease, autosomal recessive hyperchosterolemia (ARH), is described in the May 18 issue of Science. Briefly, this disease approaches the severity of homozygous FH, and is distinguishable primarily at the genetic level. Children and adolescents with ARH often suffer from premature coronary heart disease and usually have massive deposits of LDL-derived cholesterol in the skin. Unlike with FH, heterozygotes for ARH have completely normal cholesterol levels. The disease-causing mutations occur in a gene that codes for a previously undescribed cytosolic protein, aptly named ARH. This protein seems to function in either the internalization of the LDL receptor, an act that is necessary for the removal of LDL particles from the blood, or the recycling of the LDL receptor back to the surface of cells. Either way, the lack of functional ARH prevents cells from extracting LDL particles from the circulation.

CHN Newsletters process by which the body regulatescholesterol and other sterols from the diet. It also provides new insights into the way the body acquires and gets rid of cholesterol and other sterols. The disorder, sitosterolemia, is characterized by hyperabsorption of cholesterol and plant sterols. This leads to an excessive presence of cholesterol in the blood, which ultimately causes premature heart disease. "The main benefit of this study is that we identified a key protein in two very poorly understood pathwaysthe mechanisms by which cholesterol and other sterols are secreted into the bile," said Dr. Helen Hobbs, professor of internal medicine and molecular genetics and senior author of the study. "Now we have a handle on one of the key players in cholesterol absorption." she said. Until this discovery, which was published in Science , the key proteins involved in the regulation of cholesterol absorption and its secretion into the bile were not known, said Dr. Hobbs, director of the Eugene McDermott Center for Human Growth and Development.
