Familial Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency
GeneReviews
Diagnosis/testing. The diagnosis of LPL deficiency is established in a proband by the identification of biallelic pathogenic variants in LPL on molecular genetic testing. ... Affected individuals have low or absent LPL enzyme activity in an assay system that contains either normal plasma or apolipoprotein C-II (apoC-II; a cofactor of LPL) and excludes hepatic lipase (HL). ... The absence of LPL enzyme activity in postheparin plasma is diagnostic of familial LPL deficiency. LPL enzyme activity may be assayed directly in biopsies of adipose tissue. ... Consanguinity is observed in some families with familial LPL deficiency caused by homozygous pathogenic LPL variants.

Lipase Deficiency, Combined
OMIM
Clinical Features Auwerx et al. (1990) described a large family with familial hepatic triglyceride lipase (HTGL; 151670) deficiency and a coexisting reduced lipoprotein lipase (LPL; 609708) similar to the heterozygous state of LPL deficiency. ... The mutation, however, affects neither the LPL nor the HTGL gene, but a transmembrane protein designated Lmf1 by Peterfy et al. (2007). ... The severe hypertriglyceridemia was found to be due to LPL deficiency, as determined by a 93% decrease in LPL activity in the plasma of the affected individual. ... In cld mice, Davis et al. (1990) found Lpl synthetic rates to be 70% of control rates; values for Lpl in cld post-heparin plasma were markedly reduced to only 7% of control values, suggesting that most of the Lpl was not secreted. Davis et al. (1990) concluded that a selective impairment of intracellular transport and secretion of Lpl and Hl underlies the disorder in the mouse.

Hyperlipoproteinemia, Type V
OMIM
Nagasaka et al. (2003) described 2 unrelated premature females with transient type V hyperlipidemia and low lipoprotein lipase (LPL; 238600) activity at 1 to 2 months of age without deficiencies of LPL or apoCII (608083) proteins or detectable inhibitors and without mutations in the LPL or APOC2 genes. The authors postulated the presence of an unidentified LPL inhibitor, perhaps a maternal factor such as estrogen. ... Additionally, they demonstrated that severe hypertriglyceridemia in Q139X mutation carriers resulted from an LPL defect leading to lipolysis impairment. ... Marcais et al. (2005) showed that severe hyperchylomicronemia in homozygote and heterozygote Q139X carriers was caused by profound LPL defect, and they provided what appeared to be the first clear evidence in humans of a functional interplay between APOA5 and LPL.

Hyperlipoproteinemia, Type Id
OMIM
Olivecrona et al. (2010) reported a family from northern Sweden in which 3 of 4 sibs had congenital chylomicronemia. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL; 609708) activity and mass in pre- and postheparin plasma were low, and LPL release into plasma after heparin injection was delayed. LPL activity and mass in adipose tissue biopsies appeared normal. ... He remained mostly hyperchylomicronemic with recurrent acute pancreatitis. His LPL activity was undetectable; his mother and daughter had normal lipid parameters. ... She had a low HDL of 11 mg/dL and reduced LPL activity. Plengpanich et al. (2014) reported 3 sibs with chylomicronemia. ... When this patient was given a 6-hour infusion of heparin, a significant amount of LPL appeared in the plasma, resulting in a fall in the plasma triglyceride levels from 1,780 to 120 mg/dL.

Familial Hypertriglyceridemia
Wikipedia
Individuals with the disorder are mostly heterozygous in an inactivating mutation of the gene encoding for lipoprotein lipase (LPL). This sole mutation can markedly elevate serum triglyceride levels. ... Individuals with insulin resistance can have even further elevated levels of hypertriglyceridemia due to the fact that insulin is a potent activator of LPL. Therefore, an individual who is resistant to the bioactivity of insulin will have decreased LPL activity and will therefore lead to further hypertriglyceridemia, helping push serum triglycerides to pathologic levels. ... The frequency of heterozygous carriers of certain pathologic mutations in the LPL gene can range from 0.06% to 20%. ... LPL plays a role in the metabolism of triglycerides within VLDL molecules. Inactivation mutations in LPL will create an environment with an increased concentration of VLDL molecules and therefore, triglycerides.

Coronary Heart Disease, Susceptibility To, 9
OMIM
Probands had at least 50% stenosis in at least 2 coronary arteries before the age of 62 or 66 years for men and women, respectively; patients with familial hypercholesterolemia or with family members known to be homozygous for mutations in the lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL; 609708) were excluded. Mapping Engert et al. (2008) performed a genomewide scan on 119 affected and 165 unaffected individuals from 42 French Canadian families with early-onset coronary heart disease and obtained a nonparametric linkage score of 3.14 (p = 0.001) at D8S1106 on chromosome 8p22. ... Engert et al. (2008) analyzed 10 candidate genes in the region, including the LPL gene, located 13 cM from the peak, but did not identify a disease-associated mutation.

Macroglobulinemia, Waldenstrom, Susceptibility To, 1
OMIM
Somatic Mutation in Bone Marrow Lymphoplasmacytic Lymphoma Cells Treon et al. (2012) performed whole-genome sequencing of bone marrow lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) cells in 30 patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia, with paired normal-tissue and tumor-tissue sequencing in 10 patients. Sanger sequencing was used to validate the findings from an expanded cohort of patients with LPL, those with other B-cell disorders that have some of the same features as LPL, and healthy donors. ... Sanger sequencing identified MYD88 L265P in tumor samples from 49 of 54 patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia and in 3 of 3 patients with non-IgM-secreting LPL (91% of all patients with LPL). MYD88 L265P was absent in paired normal-tissue samples from patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia or non-IgM LPL and in B cells from healthy donors and was absent or rarely expressed in samples from patients with multiple myeloma, marginal-zone lymphoma, or IgM monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance. ... Treon et al. (2012) concluded that MYD88 L265P is a commonly recurring mutation in patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia that can be useful in differentiating Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia and non-IgM LPL from B-cell disorders that have phenotypic overlap.MYD88, IL6, BTK, PAX5, CXCR4, BCL2, IGH, KRT20, CD19, MS4A1, MIR155, TP53, CXCL12, IRAK1, STOML2, IL4, IRF4, UCHL5, CD40LG, CD27, HAS1, MYOM2, USP14, SDC1, CDR3, SYK, TP73, ZAP70, IL10, ANPEP, MALT1, NAMPT, TNFSF13B, LPL, TNFSF13, MYC, PIK3CD, SMUG1, AKT1, BACH2, MTOR, AICDA, FCGR3A, FCER2, BCR, TCL1A, RAPH1, ARHGAP24, SLC28A1, EGLN3, TNFSF10, TNFRSF13C, TNFSF11, ARID1A, PRIMA1, IGHV3OR16-7, AIMP2, GRAP2, SLC35B2, LAPTM5, MIR206, MIR23B, XPO1, XBP1, VWF, VEGFA, MIR363, LOC102723407, CLEC12A, HDAC9, TCL1B, ANP32B, POLDIP2, IBTK, RNF19A, IGHV4-34, MAPK8IP2, TNFAIP3, ACSBG1, IGHV3-69-1, IGHV3-23, CD274, BLNK, ZHX2, ADAMTS13, IRAK4, LEF1, TLR7, AHSA1, COLEC10, CXCL13, EGLN1, EXOC2, TNFRSF13B, PXN, TNF, CD70, HCK, HAS2, GLI2, FGFR3, EFNB2, CTRL, CTNNB1, MAPK14, CRP, CRK, CD52, CDKN2A, CD79B, CD79A, CD40, HMMR, CD38, TNFRSF8, CD22, CD6, CCND3, CBL, SERPING1, BSG, BRAF, BLM, BCL9, BCL6, CCND1, ANXA5, HCLS1, IL1B, AURKA, PLCG2, STAT5B, STAT5A, SPIB, SPI1, SOAT1, CCL3, RAF1, PTPRC, MAPK3, MAPK1, PRKCD, POU2F2, POU2F1, POU2AF1, PIK3CG, IL2RA, PIK3CB, PIK3CA, NOTCH2, NOS2, NOS1, NCAM1, CD200, MMP8, MCL1, KIT, ITGAM, ITGA4, ISG20, IL4R, LOC102724971

Hyperlipidemia, Familial Combined, 3
OMIM
A number sign (#) is used with this entry because susceptibility to familial combined hyperlipidemia-3 (FCHL3) can be conferred by mutation in the LPL gene (609708) on chromosome 8p21. ... Molecular Genetics Individuals heterozygous for lipoprotein lipase deficiency (238600) also show an FCHL phenotype. Indeed, a defect in the LPL gene may occur in up to a fifth of FCHL families (Babirak et al., 1989). One of 20 FCHL patients studied by Yang et al. (1995) was found to be compound heterozygous for mutations in the promoter region of the lipoprotein lipase gene (LPL; 609708.0032 and 609708.0038), and most heterozygous parents of patients who are homozygous for the recessive disorder LPL deficiency (238600) have a lipid phenotype resembling that of mild FCHL. ...

Hypertriglyceridemia, Familial
OMIM
In a 59-year-old man with severe hypertriglyceridemia, Breckenridge et al. (1978) found deficiency of apolipoprotein C-II (APOC2; 207750), which is an activator for lipoprotein lipase (LPL; 609708). After transfusion of 1 unit of plasma the patient's triglycerides fell, within 1 day, from 1000 to 250 mg per deciliter and remained below preinfusion concentration for 6 days. ... Other Associations In a study of a total of 555 individuals with hypertriglyceridemia, diagnosed with Fredrickson hyperlipoproteinemia phenotypes 2B (144250), 3 (107741), 4 (144600), or 5 (144650), and 1,319 controls, Johansen et al. (2010) first performed a genomewide association study and identified common variants in the APOA5, GCKR (600842), LPL, and APOB (107730) genes that were associated with hypertriglyceridemia. ... Evidence has connected MI risk with coding-sequence mutations at 2 genes functionally related to APOA5, namely lipoprotein lipase (LPL; 609708) and apolipoprotein C-III (APOC3; 107720).

Microvascular Complications Of Diabetes, Susceptibility To, 1
OMIM
Associations Pending Confirmation Association with Variation in APOC3, APOE, and LPL In a case-control study of 374 Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy and 392 Chinese diabetics without nephropathy, Ng et al. (2006) examined the association of the APOC3 -455T-C SNP (107720), APOE E2 (107741.0001), E3 (107741.0015), and E4 alleles (107741.0016), and the LPL S447X SNP (609708.0014) with diabetic nephropathy. LPL 447X-containing genotypes were significantly decreased in diabetic nephropathy patients, as were APOE 3/3 genotypes. In addition, certain combinations of genotypes (APOE 3/3 and LPL 447X, APOC3 C/C and LPL 447X, and APOE 3/3 and APOC3 C/C) were protective for diabetic nephropathy compared with the most common combination of the respective polymorphisms.

Obesity
OMIM
Three genes in this network, lipoprotein lipase (LPL; 609708), lactamase beta (LACTB; 608440), and protein phosphatase 1-like (PPM1L; 611931), were validated as previously unknown obesity genes, strengthening the association between this network and metabolic disease traits. Given the prediction that LPL and LACTB have a causal relationship with obesity, Chen et al. (2008) recorded weight, fat mass, and lean mass for Lpl heterozygous null mice, Lactb transgenic mice, and wildtype littermate controls every 2 weeks starting at 11 weeks of age using quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). As predicted, the growth curves for the Lpl heterozygous null and Lactb transgenic animals were significantly different from those of controls, with the fat mass/lean mass ratio difference generally increasing over time. At the final quantitative NMR measurement the fat mass/lean mass ratios in the Lpl heterozygous null mouse and the Lactb transgenic mice were increased by 22% and 20%, respectively, over the wildtype controls (p = 1.09 x 10(-5) and p = 4.48 x 10(-5)), respectively. LPL is the principal enzyme responsible for the hydrolysis of circulating triglycerides and is active in differentiated macrophages, consistent with its presence in the MEMN.

Dysbetalipoproteinemia
Orphanet
Dietary, metabolic, hormonal factors may aggravate the disease, as well as chronic inflammation, xenobiotics (e.g. immune suppressants, retinoids, antidepressants) or other genetic cofactors (e.g. APOA5 , APOC3 , LIPC , LPL variants). Diagnostic methods Diagnosis is based on the evidence of an abnormal lipoprotein profile with increased fasting serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides and Apolipoprotein B, and lowered plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (<40 mg/dL).

Lipoprotein Glomerulopathy
OMIM
Apolipoprotein E may accumulate in glomerular capillaries because the mutation diminishes the capacity of apolipoprotein E to bind to the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and also decreases its uptake by endothelial cells. Impaired LPL binding was also seen with APOE Sendai (Ishigaki et al., 2000).

Phospholipid Transfer Protein
OMIM
Molecular Genetics In an evaluation of the hypothesis that multiple high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels reflect the cumulative contributions of multiple common DNA sequence variants, each of which has a small effect, Spirin et al. (2007) identified a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the PLTP gene (172425.0001) that acts in concert with other SNPs in the CETP (118470.0005) and LPL (118470.0042) genes to affect plasma levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol.
