Anatomical context of Xanthomatosis

  • Tendon xanthomas, multiple generation transmission, and the appearance of bimodality in the distributions of total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were found [22].
  • Comparisons were made with a number of measures of disease severity, including cholesterol-year score, calcium score on electron-beam CT (EBCT), and size of Achilles tendon xanthomas [23].
  • Even though only a proportion of an RE population is catalase-positive, the results accord with the majority of current opinion that most of the cells in atherosclerotic lesions are derived locally, whereas the phagocytes in lipid implants and xanthomas are of RE origin [24].
  • Analysis of monocytes from familial hypercholesterolemic (FH) subjects, who frequently develop xanthomatosis, revealed a significant number of subjects with elevated STAT1alpha and IP-10 expression [25].
  • The persistence of the xanthoma may be due to a lack of acceptors, such as high-density lipoproteins, that remove the cholesterol from the foam cells [26].
