André J. Tremblay, et al. - Dysbetalipoproteinemia (dysb) and familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) are two genetic disorders giving rise to severe disturbances of lipid homeostasis and premature atherosclerosis...These results indicate that the coexistence of dysbetalipoproteinemia and heterozygous FH results in a mixed lipoprotein phenotype that is intermediate between the two pure phenotypes and that fenofibrate treatment partially reverses lipoprotein abnormalities, mostly through changes in PR and FCR of apo B48- and B100-containing lipoproteins
