Abstract
- Decrease in Apolipoprotein C-III (ApoC-III) yields a cardioprotective lipoprotein profile. Here, Valleix et al.reveal a novel ApoC-III variant conferring low plasma ApoC-III concentration and cardioprotection despite renal insufficiency, and, unexpectedly, causing dominant hereditary systemic amyloidosis due to its fibrillogenic nature.
