摘要：Tangier disease (TD), caused by mutations in the ATP-binding cassette 1 (ABC-1) gene, is a rare genetic disorder characterized by severe deficiency of high density lipoproteins (HDL) in the plasma, hypercatabolism of HDL, and defective apolipoprotein (apo)-mediated cellular cholesterol efflux. In the present study, we assessed plasma lipid concentrations, HDL particle size and subspecies, and cellular cholesterol efflux in 9 TD heterozygotes from a kindred in which the proband was homozygous for an A→C missense mutation at nucleotide 5338 of the ABC-1 transcript. Relative to age- and gender-matched controls from the Framingham Offspring Study (FOS), TD heterozygotes had significant reductions ( P P 3H]cholesterol, P —Brousseau, M. E., G. P. Eberhart, J. Dupuis, B. F. Asztalos, A. L. Goldkamp, E. J. Schaefer, and M. W. Freeman. Cellular cholesterol efflux in heterozygotes for Tangier disease is markedly reduced and correlates with high density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration and particle size. J.
