Pseudohomozygous and Pseudoheterozygous Type II Hyperlipoproteinemia

open access: yesArchives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1976
A 4-year-old boy had typical features of homozygous type II hyperlipoproteinemia with planar xanthomas, a plasma cholesterol level greater than 600 mg/dl, and an estimated beta-lipoprotein cholesterol concentration greater than 500 mg/dl. Both he and his sister, who had the biochemical features of the heterozygous state, responded unusually well to a ...

Neomycin and plasma lipoproteins in type II hyperlipoproteinemia

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1984
Neomycin, a nonabsorbable aminoglycoside antibiotic, has been shown to exert a hypocholesterolemic effect in man. In a 9-mo, double-blind, randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled clinical trial, the effect of neomycin, 2 gm/day, on plasma lipoproteins, as well as its safety, was described in 20 subjects with type II hyperlipoproteinemia. A 15% (50 mg%

Controlled trial of acifran in type II hyperlipoproteinemia

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1985
The hypolipidemic effects of acifran were evaluated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 30 patients with type IIa hyperlipoproteinemia. Plasma lipid and lipoprotein values were determined at baseline (mean of three values), again after a 2-week single-blind period of acifran dosing, and at 2-week intervals during a 10-week period

Homozygous Type II Hyperlipoproteinemia Treatment

open access: yesJAMA, 1974
Dietary treatment was minimally effective in two children with homozygous type II hyperlipoproteinemia who had no evidence of atherosclerosis. Neither patient could tolerate cholestyramine resin in therapeutic doses. A partial ileal bypass operation was performed on each child, aged 10 and 8 years old.

Hypertrophy of liver peroxisomes in type II and type IV hyperlipoproteinemia

Atherosclerosis, 1986
A morphometric study on liver biopsies from patients with primary hyperlipoproteinemia (IIa n = 4, IIb n = 7, IV n = 7) and in controls (n = 7) was performed by light and electron microscopy. We found hypertrophy of peroxisomes in all subjects with hyperlipoproteinemia.

Mevinolin and Neomycin in the Treatment of Type II Hyperlipoproteinemia

open access: yes, 1987
The reduction of elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol concentrations in patients with type II hyperlipoproteinemia leads to improved cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Two agents that may be of value in treating hypercholesterolemia are mevinolin and neomycin.

Pseudohomozygous Type II Hyperlipoproteinemia

Dermatologica, 2009
Nodular xanthomas on both elbows and a streak-like xanthoma on the intergluteal area developed in a 4-year-old girl with type IIa hyperlipoproteinemia. She had no disease associated with secondary hypercholesterolemia and no family history of hypercholesterolemia. Her xanthomas regressed under fat restriction diet and cholestyramine therapy.

Pseudohomozygous type II hyperlipoproteinemia

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1974
Familial hypercholesterolemia (a form of familial type II hyperlipoproteinemia) is transmitted as a dominant trait with homozygotes presenting in childhood with marked elevation of LDL and planar xanthormas. We studied two patients who presented as children with marked elevation of LDL and planar xanthomas but who, after family studies and clinical ...
