Familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD), Dunnigan variety, is an autosomal dominant disorder caused due to missense mutations in the lamin A/C (LMNA) gene encoding nuclear lamina proteins. Patients with FPLD are predisposed to metabolic complications of insulin resistance such as diabetes. We sought to evaluate and compare body fat distribution with dual-emission X-ray absorptiometry in women with and without FPLD and identify densitometric, clinical and metabolic features.
家族性部分脂肪营养不良(FPLD),邓尼根型,是一种常染色体显性疾病,由编码核纤层蛋白的核纤层蛋白A/C(LMNA)基因中的错义突变引起。FPLD患者易患胰岛素抵抗的代谢并发症,如糖尿病。我们试图评估和比较患有和未患有FPLD的女性的身体脂肪分布,并通过双能X线吸收法确定密度测定、临床和代谢特征。
