Definitions |
A form of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency (LCAT) characterised clinically by corneal opacities, haemolytic anaemia and renal failure and biochemically by severely decreased HDL cholesterol and complete deficiency of the LCAT enzyme. Age of onset and severity of clinical manifestations are variable. Caused by mutations in the LCAT gene (16q22.1) encoding the LCAT enzyme which catalyses the formation of cholesterol esters in lipoproteins, leading to progressive lipid deposition in body tissues. There is no clear genotype-phenotype correlation since family members with the same mutation have been found to have different clinical and biochemical pictures. Environmental factors or other minor genes may therefore also be involved in the disorder.
