Sign InDescription
Hyperlipoproteinemia type III, also called dysbetalipoproteinemia, is characterized by hyperlipidemia due to accumulation of remnants of the triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins (TGRL), very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), and chylomicrons (CM), in response to dysfunctional genetic variants of apolipoprotein E or absence of apoE (summary by Blum, 2016).
