BACKGROUND: Familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) is an extremely rare lipoprotein disorder caused by mutations in at least 5 genes of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) complex. OBJECTIVE: This work shows the molecular analysis of patients diagnosed with FCS, who attended the Spanish Arteriosclerosis Society lipid units and were included in the National Dyslipidemia Registry. METHODS: Among the 238 patients registered with severe hypertriglyceridemia (fasting triglycerides \textgreater1000 mg/dL), 26 were diagnosed with FCS as they had confirmed postheparin plasma LPL activity deficiency and/or homozygosity for loss-of-function mutations in LPL, GPIHBP1, APOC2, LMF1, or Apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5). RESULTS: Among the 26 FCS cases, 23 had mutations in the homozygous state: 19 in LPL and 4 in the GPIHBP1 gene. The molecular analysis revealed 3 novel mutations: 2 in LPL, in 2 unrelated patients (c.312delA; p.Asp105Thrfs*66 and c.629A\textgreaterG; p.His210Arg), and 1 in GPHIBP1 in a third patient (c.502delC; p.Leu168Serfs*83). These 3 patients had confirmed lack of LPL activity. Three additional patients with confirmed LPL activity deficiency were heterozygous carriers of mutations in the genes analyzed. Among these, we found 2 novel mutations in APOA5 (c.50-1G\textgreaterA and c.326_327insC; p.Tyr110Leufs*158). CONCLUSION: We have identified 5 novel pathogenic mutations: 2 in LPL, 1 in GPIHBP1, and 2 in the APOA5 gene. The genetic defaults accounting for the LPL activity deficiency of 23 of them have been clearly identified and 3 patients, who harbored mutations in heterozygosity, were diagnosed based on LPL activity deficiency, which raises the question of the involvement of new genes in the manifestation of FCS.
