Mutations in the apolipoprotein (apo) B, E (LDL) receptor gene and in the apolipoprotein B-100 gene are the cause of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and of familial defective apo B-100 (FDB), respectively. Whether these abnormalities lead to altered production or uptake of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) or intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL) has not been established previously. Therefore VLDL and IDL apo B-100 kinetics were measured in seven subjects with FH, in six subjects with FDB, and in five normocholesterolemic controls using primed-constant infusions of [1-13C]leucine. Absolute production rates (APR) of VLDL apoB were higher in FH than in controls (27.1 ± 1.9 vs. 17.9 ± 2.1 mg/kg/day P < 0.03). VLDL APR in FDB were between those of FH and controls (24.3 ± 4.8 mg/kg/day), and demonstrated a relatively large inter-individual variability. The increase in VLDL APR in FH resulted in higher fasting serum triglyceride concentrations than in controls (P < 0.05), whereas in FDB triglycerides were between those observed in FH and in controls. A significant correlation was observed between VLDL apoB APR and serum triglycerides in FH and in FDB; the correlation coefficient for all subjects was r = 0.84 (P < 0.0001), indicating that the major determinant of serum triglyceride concentrations was VLDL apoB APR. IDL apoB APR was lower in FH and in FDB compared to controls (P < 0.03 P < 0.02, respectively): and its fractional catabolic rate (FCR) was slightly lower in FH and in FDB, resulting in similar plasma IDL apoB concentrations in all three groups of subjects. IDL apoB APR in FH were negatively correlated with LDL cholesterol concentrations (r = –0.89; P < 0.001); LDL cholesterol concentrations correlated positively with the part of VLDL that did not appear in IDL (r = 0.82 P < 0.02), bypassing therefore the delipidation cascade. In conclusion the data demonstrate increased VLDL apoB production rates in FH. VLDL and IDL kinetics differ when LDL concentrations are elevated either due to a LDL receptor defect or due to defective apolipoprotein B-100.—Zulewski H., R. Ninnis, A. R. Miserez, M. W.
