T
he metabolism of apolipoproteins B-48 and B-100 (apo B-48 and B-100) in large triglyceride-rich lipoproteins was studied in three adults with familial dysbetalipoproteinemia (F. dys.) and compared to that of normolipidemic subjects. One Caucasian F. dys. subject was apparently homozygous for the common form of apo E-2, (Arg158----Cys), whereas the two Black subjects were homozygous for a different apo E-2 mutant (Arg145----Cys), which displays much less defective binding to cells than apo E-2 (Arg158----Cys). The lipoproteins were labeled with 125I and injected intravenously into fasted recipients. The results indicate that the terminal catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins of intestinal and hepatic origin is markedly impaired in apo E2/2 homozygotes with alleles Arg158----Cys and Arg145----Cys; despite long residence times, apo B-48 of chylomicrons and apo B-100 of large very low density lipoproteins are not converted appreciably to intermediate or low density lipoproteins in apo E2/2 homozygotes.

Having trouble reading a PDF?
PDFs are designed to be printed out and read, but if you prefer to read them online, you may find it easier if you increase the view size to 125%.
Having trouble saving a PDF?
Many versions of the free Acrobat Reader do not
allow Save. You must instead save the PDF from the JCI Online page you downloaded it from. PC users:
Right-click on the Download link and choose the option that says something like "Save Link As...".
Mac users should hold the mouse button down on the link to get these same options.
Having trouble printing a PDF?
- Try printing one page at a time or to a newer printer.
- Try saving the file to disk before printing rather than opening it "on the fly." This requires that you
configure your browser to "Save" rather than "Launch Application" for the file type "application/pdf", and can
usually be done in the "Helper Applications" options.
- Make sure you are using the latest version of Adobe's Acrobat Reader.
