Extractions: (Hypoproteinemia) Low lipoprotein levels in the plasma seen as rare familial disorders or secondary to hyperthyroidism, malabsorption, and malnutrition. Low levels of low density ( -) lipoproteins (LDL) can be seen in AIDS; hematologic malignancies, such as acute myelocytic leukemia and chronic myelocytic leukemia; and disorders with splenomegaly, such as Gaucher's disease. HYPOALPHALIPOPROTEINEMIA (Low HDL Levels) In many epidemiologic studies, low levels of high density ( -) lipoproteins (HDL) have been associated with increased coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. Low HDL levels often are due to genetic factors. Additionally, HDL levels are reduced by obesity, sedentary lifestyle, cigarette use, diabetes mellitus, uremia and nephrotic syndrome, and several drugs (thiazide diuretics, retinoids, -blockers, androgenic steroids, most progestational drugs, and probucol).

Extractions: Abetaliproteinemia is an autosomal recessive inherited inborn error of lipoprotein metabolism caused by mutation in a subunit of the microsomal trygliceride transfer protein (MTP), whose gene maps to chromosome 4q22-q24. This disease is very rare. Clinical features are malabsorption syndrome, pigmentary degeneration of the retina and progressive ataxic neuropathy. Red cells show a peculiar ``thorny'' deformation called acanthocytosis. The neurological symptoms are directly related to a deficiency of liposoluble vitamin E. Total cholesterol is low ( Clinical signs Update : 01/06/2004 Orphanet database access
