• homozygotes die within 36-48 hours after birth
|
• homozygotes exhibit poor weight gain
|
• although overtly normal at birth, homozygotes exhibit decreasing mobility
|
• homozygotes show a dramatic increase in plasma cholesterol levels during the first 2 days of life, with values rising from ~60 mg/dl in utero to >450 mg/dl after P2
|
• homozygotes show a progressive rise in plasma triglyceride levels during the first 2 days of life, with values often reaching >20,000 mg/dl by P2 (that is, 100 times higher than that in wild-type littermates)
• however, no hypertriglyceridemia is detected in utero
|
• homozygotes develop extreme hyperchylomicronemia within 2 days after birth as a consequence of dietary fat obtained with nursing
• chylomicron accumulation probably leads to coalescence of particles and obstruction of capillary fields in vital organs
|
• in affected homozygotes, the lipolytic activity of postheparin plasma and (liver and heart) tissue homogenates is only 5% to 20% of control activity for hepatic lipase (HL)
|
• in affected homozygotes, the lipolytic activity of postheparin plasma and (liver and heart) tissue homogenates is only 5% to 20% of control activity for lipoprotein lipase (LPL)
|
• homozygotes display small hemorrhages in the heart, lungs and liver
