[Low density lipoprotein receptor gene mutations in patients with clinical diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia.].

Kardiologiia

Russian Cardiology Research Complex; ul. Tretiya Cherepkovskaya, 15a, 121552 Moscow, Russia.

Published: April 2016

Unlabelled: Low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene mutations cause familial hypercholesterolemia which is associated with elevated risk of ischemic heart disease.

Aim: To define LDLR gene mutations in unrelated patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia in Russia.

Methods: PCR- single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis, automated DNA sequencing, and test for the presence of the apolipoprotein (apo) B-3500 mutation known to induce hereditary defect in apo-B-100.

Results: We found 6 novel mutations of LDLR gene designated E8X, 230insG, 671_679dupGACAAATCT, W422R, D461Y, and V698L. We also identified three missense mutations - C139G, E207K and R395W, which were previously described in FH patients from western populations. None of the studied persons had apo-B-3500 mutation.

Conclusion: These findings broaden knowledge on mutations responsible for development of familial hypercholesterolemia and confirm molecular heterogeneity of this disease in Russia.
