27
Q

In a lipid panel, you see TG in chilld >2000, what do you suspect?

A

Type I hyperTG d/t LPL or apoC2/3 defect

28
Q

Common presentation of IIa Familial Hypercholesterimia

A

see CAD < age of 60

29
Q

In IIa familial hypercholesterolemia, what is the primary defect… what does this result in?

A

Defect of LDL-R–> end up with excess LDL

30
Q

What lipid panel would we see in someone with IIa?

A

TC>275 and LDL-C >190 d/t LDL-R defect

31
Q

Do we see TG abnormalities in IIa?

A

NOPE. just elevated LDL and TC

32
Q

What risk are you at with CAD if you have IIb familial combined hyperlipidemia or with Metabolic syndrome?

A

CAD is 2x normal risk despite borderline lipid numbers

33
Q

What lipoproteins are in excess in IIb familial combined hyperlipidemia or with metabolic syndrome

A

Excess LDL and VLDL

also more LDL-P

34
Q
lipid panel:
LDL 100
TG: 200-500
HDL <40
pt at 2x risk for CAD
A

This is IIb familial combined hyperlipidemia or with metabolic syndrome

35
Q

What is the primary defect in IIb?

A

overproduciton of apoB100

36
Q

What is the role of Hepatic lipase in IIb familial combined?

A

Pt has High TGS that drive CETP
CETP moves TG to LDL and HDL
When you have LDL with lots of TG, Hepatic lipase is all like, wow, too much and then makes sdHDL and sdLDL

37
Q

What is the funciton of CETP?

A

Takes VLDL to HDL or LDL

see increased VLDL in high central adiposity or insulin resistance

38
Q

Type III Dysbetalipoproteinemia causes premature CAD and is d/t :

A

overproduction of ApoE2/E2 + envirornment

39
Q

What is the role of ApoE2 in Type III Dybetalipoproteinimeia?

A

ApoE2/E2 is poorly recognized on IDL by the LDL-R so doesn’t get taken up

40
Q

What abnormal lipids do we expect to see in Type III Dybetalipoproteiniemia

A

TC and TG bonth 200 to 500

41
Q

pts comes in with TC andn TG both 200 to 500 and excess VLDL and IDL with nodules on knees and orange creases on hands. Dx

A

Type III

42
Q

What lipoproteins are in excess in pt with type III dybetaliporoteinmia

A

excess VLDL and IDL

43
Q

Type IV hypertriglyceridemia can lead to

A

pancreatitis (not diabetic releated)

44
Q

What lipoprotein is in excess in pt with Type IV hyperTG?

A

excess VLDL

45
Q

What is our primray defect in type IV hyperTG?

A

defect of LPL or ApoC3 (means VLDL will accumulate)

46
Q

What lpids are abnormal in pt with type IV hyperTG

A

TGS between 500-1000

47
Q

Pt comes in with TG between 500-1000 and and exces VLDL, what is the primary defect

A

Type IV hyperTG:

defect is ApoC2 or LPL thus can’t break down VLDL

48
Q

Pt comes to clinic with TC>275 and LDL-C >190 with an excess LDL level. What is the primary defect

A

LDL-R; patient has IIa familial hypercholesterolemia

49
Q

YOung pt comes in with TG over 2000, what lipoprotein would you expect to be in excess?

A

has Type I severe hypterTG

mutation in LPL or apoC2/C3 thus very high chylomicrons bc they can’t offload

50
Q

Pt comes in with excess LDL and VLDL.

His LDL is around 100 but had TG 200-500 with low HDL, what is the defect

A

Overproduction of apoB100:

Type IIB famililal hyperlipidemia or with metabolic syndrome

51
Q

Pt comes in with elevated TC and TG both between 200-500. Here VLDL and IDL are elevated. DX?

A

Type III Dysbetalipoproteinemia,

Dt ApoE2 overproduction

52
Q

Type V Familial hyperTG is dt defect where?

A

On the ApoC2 or C3 on BOTH VLDL and chylomicron

53
Q

What Lipoproteins are elevated in Type V familial hyperTG?

A

VLDL and chylomicron

54
Q

What does a lipid panel for pts with Type V familial hyperTG look like

A

TGs >1000

also have elevated chyomicrons and VLDL

55
Q

Pt comes in with TG>1000 and elevated chylomicrons and VLDL, what do you expect primary defect is?

A

ApoC2 or C3 on both chylomicron and VLDL isn’t fnx properly

56
Q

VLDL, chylomicrons and IDL are primary filled with:

A

TGs

57
Q

elevated LDL, smoking, high BP and Family Hx all CV risk factors that cause:

A

LDL infiltrate into intima

58
Q

90% of circulating cholesterol is

A

LDL

59
Q

What lipoproteins are risk factors for atherosclerosis

A

IDL (VLDL remnants) and LDL

IDL and VLDL remntants as well

60
Q

pt had apoA1 mutation means they cannot make

A

HDL = increased risk for disease

61
Q

most potentially lethal inherited disease in world; see heterozygotes 1/500 and is autosomal dominant most often

A

famililal hypercholesterolemia
–> 50% males have MI or die from MI by 55, females by 65
