Association of a Novel Homozygous Variant in ABCA1 Gene with Tangier Disease

Tangier disease (TD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a variant in the ABCA1 gene, characterized by significantly reduced levels of plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apolipoprotein A-1 (ApoA-I). TD typically leads to accumulation of cholesterol in the peripheral...

TD typically leads to accumulation of cholesterol in the peripheral tissues and early coronary disease but with highly variable clinical expression. Herein, we describe a case study of a 59-year-old male patient with features typical of TD, in whom a likely pathogenic variant in the ABCA1 gene was identified by whole-exome sequencing (WES), identified for the first time as homozygous (NM_005502.4: c.4799A>G (p. His1600Arg)).
