Fibroblasts from 12 normotriglyceridemic subjects and 30 hypertriglyceridemic patients and family members were used to investigate triglyceride synthesis and the influence of triiodothyronine on it. The monolayers were incubated for 72 hours with and without the thyroid hormone, followed by incorporation studies of radiolabeled acetic acid or palmitic acid into the cellular triglyceride fraction. Triiodothyronine had no influence on triglyceride synthesis of normal cell lines and of cells derived from patients with secondary hypertriglyceridemia, whereas fibroblasts from endogenous type IV patients showed higher rates of triglyceride synthesis under identical conditions. Values for type IV were in the range of 134% to 466% of the hormone-free control incubations. In cultures derived from patients with familial combined hyperlipidemia, no stimulation by triiodothyronine was observed: values were in the range of 64% to 144% of the hormone-free controls. Three out of four lines with type V gave "normal" values and are supposed to represent secondary hypertriglyceridemia, whereas one line may express endogenous type IV. The evidence obtained in vitro with cultured cells indicates different metabolic defects in endogenous type IV and familial combined hyperlipidemia; it also shows the biochemically heterogenous nature of the disease "hypertriglyceridemia."
