The LDL receptor plays a major role in the regulation of plasma apolipoprotein (apo) B-containing lipoproteins by mediating approximately two thirds of the clearance of these particles. Results from in vitro and human kinetic studies suggest that hepatic oversecretion of apo B100-containing lipoproteins would contribute to the markely elevated plasma concentrations of LDL-cholesterol found in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). The aim of this study was to examine the kinetics of apo B100 labelled with a stable isotope (L-(5,5,5-D3) leucine) in five normolipidemic male controls and in a unique set of seven well characterized FH subjects which included six FH heterozygous males and one FH homozygous female carrying the same null LDL receptor gene mutation. All participants were apo E3 homozygotes. As compared with controls, the VLDL apo B100 production rate (PR) was increased by 50% in FH heterozygotes and by 109% in the FH homozygote. Furthermore, FH subjects had significantly higher LDL apo B100 pool size (PS) and lower LDL apo B100 fractional catabolic rate (FCR) than controls. We also observed that the FH homozygote had higher IDL apo B100 PS, as well as a higher IDL and LDL apo B100 PR than FH heterozygotes and controls. Taken together, these results suggest that the marked elevation of plasma LDL-cholesterol among FH subjects is attributable to both decreased clearance of LDL and increased hepatic production of apo B100-containing lipoproteins and support the concept that deficiency of LDL receptors could lead to an enhanced conversion of VLDL to LDL which also contributes to the increased LDL apo B 100 PS in FH.
