Familial Hypoalphalipoproteinemia (sequence of entire gene)

Metabolism 01.011

Familial Hypoalphalipoproteinemia (sequence of entire gene)

FHA
Signs/symptoms: Decreased high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. There are usually no observable signs or symptoms that a person produces too little HDL-cholesterol.
Complications: Atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease
Early diagnosis/treatment: Yes
Familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia includes a variety of conditions, ranging from mild to severe, in which concentrations of alpha-lipoproteins or high-density lipoprotein (HDL) are reduced. The etiology of HDL deficiencies is due to mutations in the apo A1 gene which maps to 11q23.3.

Material required:
