Title: Idiopathic hyperlipoproteinemia in dogs. Author: Rogers WA, Donovan EF, Kociba GJ. Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1975 Jun 01; 166(11):1087-91. PubMed ID: 1133068. Abstract: Six dogs with hyperlipoproteinemia of undetermined cause had increased serum concentrations of lower density lipoprotein classes, as detected by lipid measurements and lipoprotein electrophoresis. Five of the dogs were Miniature Schnauzers and 1 was of mixed breeding. Signs of disease included abdominal distress (2 dogs), abdominal distress and seizures (2 dogs), and weizures (1 dog). One dog was clinically normal. Feeding of a low-fat diet resulted in alterations of lipoprotein distribution and serum lipid content. In 2 dogs, intravenous (IV) administration of heparin caused shifing of the lipoprotein electrophoretic pattern, indicating activated lipoprotein lipase. These clinical and laboratory findings suggested a syndrome caused by an inherited defect in lipid metabolism.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
