Background- Combined hyperlipidemia is a common disorder characterized by a highly atherogenic lipoprotein profile and increased risk of coronary heart disease. The etiology of the lipid abnormalities (increased serum cholesterol and triglyceride or either lipid alone) is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: We assembled 2 large cohorts of families with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) and performed disease and quantitative trait linkage analyses to evaluate the inheritance of the lipid abnormalities. Chromosomal regions 6q16.1-q16.3, 8p23.3-p22, and 11p14.1-q12.1 produced evidence for linkage to FCHL. Chromosomes 6 and 8 are newly identified candidate loci that may respectively contribute to the triglyceride (logarithm of odds [LOD], 1.43; P=0.005) and cholesterol (LOD, 2.2; P=0.0007) components of this condition. The data for chromosome 11 readily fulfil the guidelines required for a confirmed linkage. The causative alleles may contribute to the inheritance of the cholesterol (LOD, 2.04 at 35.2 cM; P=0.0011) component of FCHL as well as the triglyceride trait (LOD, 2.7 at 48.7 cM; P=0.0002). CONCLUSIONS: Genetic analyses identify 2 potentially new loci for FCHL and provide important positional information for cloning the genes within the chromosome 11p14.1-q12.1 interval that contributes to the lipid abnormalities of this highly atherogenic disorder.
