Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (hoFH) is either diagnosed on the identification of pathogenic genetic variants in LDLR, APOB, or PCSK9 or by phenotypic parameters of which an extremely elevated LDL-C level >13 mmol/L (>500 mg/dL) is the most prominent hallmark.

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.

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.

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.
