Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE Here, we have used hepatocyte-like cells generated from homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (hoFH) iPSCs to identify drugs that can potentially be repurposed to lower serum LDL-C. We found that cardiac glycosides reduce the production of apolipoprotein B (apoB) from human hepatocytes in culture and the serum of avatar mice harboring humanized livers. 28388428 2017

Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Mutations in the genes for the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), apolipoprotein B, and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 have been reported to cause heterozygous and homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). 29396260 2019

0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Screening of LDLR and APOB gene mutations in Mexican patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. 29576406 2019
Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE A microsomal triglyceride transfer protein inhibitor and an antisense oligonucleotide against APOB have recently been approved for use in subjects with clinically diagnosed homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. 24632267 2014
Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A total of 97 subjects were identified as having HoFH-of whom, 47 were true homozygous (1 for APOB, 5 for LDLRAP1, and 41 for LDLR), 45 compound heterozygous for LDLR, 3 double heterozygous for LDLR and PSCK9, and 2 double heterozygous for LDLR and APOB. 27784735 2016
Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 Biomarker disease BEFREE This first study of apoB metabolism in homozygous FH using endogenous labeling with stable isotopes demonstrates that the LDL receptor contributes significantly to the clearance of LDL from plasma but plays a lesser role in the clearance of larger apoB-containing lipoproteins. 15637307 2005
Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE New therapies such as mipomersen, a second-generation antisense oligonucleotide, microsomal triglyceride transfer protein inhibitors that decrease the synthesis of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitors hold promise in reducing cholesterol levels in those patients in whom low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduction is required beyond the use of statins, especially in those with severe heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia or homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia. 24870549 2014
Familial hypercholesterolemia - homozygous
0.200 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Partial MTP inhibition using small molecule inhibitors, such as lomitapide, can effectively lower plasma low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels, but is associated with gastrointestinal side effects and hepatic steatosis, whose long-term sequelae remain unclear; lomitapide has accordingly only been approved as a treatment for homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. 25552696 2015
