Genetics Home Reference: Tangier disease is an inherited disorder characterized by significantly reduced levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the blood. HDL transports cholesterol and certain fats called phospholipids from the body's tissues to the liver, where they are removed from the blood. HDL is often referred to as "good cholesterol" because high levels of this substance reduce the chances of developing heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease. Because people with Tangier disease have very low levels of HDL, they have a moderately increased risk of cardiovascular disease.17
MalaCards: Tangier Disease, also known as familial high density lipoprotein deficiency disease, is related to fish-eye disease and apo a-i deficiency. An important gene associated with Tangier Disease is ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette, sub-family A (ABC1), member 1), and among its related pathways are Cholesterol and Sphingolipids transport / Transport from Golgi and ER to the apical membrane (normal and CF) and Fat digestion and absorption. The compounds fenofibric acid and 22r-hydroxycholesterol have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include heart, liver and b cells, and related mouse phenotypes are endocrine/exocrine gland and liver/biliary system. NIH Rare Diseases: Tangier disease is an inherited disorder characterized by significantly reduced levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) - the 'good cholesterol' - in the blood. Because people with Tangier disease have very low levels of HDL, they have a moderately increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Tangier disease is caused by mutations in the ABCA1 gene. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.30 Wikipedia: Tangier disease (also known as \"Familial alpha-lipoprotein deficiency\") or Hypoalphalipoproteinemia is...44 more... OMIM: 205400 |
