Preferred Label : abetalipoproteinemia;

MeSH definition : An autosomal recessive disorder of lipid metabolism. It is caused by mutation of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein that catalyzes the transport of lipids (TRIGLYCERIDES; CHOLESTEROL ESTERS; PHOSPHOLIPIDS) and is required in the secretion of BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low density lipoproteins or LDL). Features include defective intestinal lipid absorption, very low serum cholesterol level, and near absent LDL.;

MeSH synonym : betalipoprotein deficiency disease; microsomal triglyceride transfer protein deficiency disease; bassen kornzweig syndrome; bassen-kornzweig syndrome; bassen-kornzweig disease; bassen kornzweig disease; microsomal triglyceride transfer protein deficiency; betalipoprotein deficiency diseases; deficiency disease, betalipoprotein; deficiency diseases, betalipoprotein; disease, betalipoprotein deficiency; diseases, betalipoprotein deficiency; acanthocytosis; acanthocytoses;
