Pathophysiology

Multiple mechanisms have been described in different diseases and clinical conditions that are found to be associated with hypolipidemia. In primary hypolipedemia, genetic mutations cause an underproduction or increased clearance of Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) and result in lipid levels low enough to cause significant consequences.

  • In anemia:

Mechanisms suggested that high-erythropoitic activity-associated hypocholesterolemia is due to increased cholesterol requirements by the proliferating erythoid cells.[1]

  • In hyperthyroidism:

Thyroid hormone dysfunction affect composition and transport of lipoproteins,[2] Moreover, the triiodothyronine (T3) enhances the gene expression of the LDL receptor and hence the receptor activity.[2]

  • In critical illness:

Downregulation of hepatic synthesis due to decreased production of cholesterol precursors particularly lanosterol and lathosterol.[3][4] Other different mechanisms include loss of apoproteins in burns, increased cholesterol catabolism, and Low cholesterol concentrations associated with high levels of cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 may be involved.[5][4][6]

  • In malignancy:

Elevated LDL receptor activity in malignant cells may be a contributing factor to hypocholesterolemia in some cancer patients.[7]
