Phenotype-genotype Correlation in CD36 Deficiency Types I and II

Abstract: SummaryCD36 deficiency was studied with attention to the phenotypegenotype relationship. The diagnosis of CD36 deficiency was made when CD36 was negative on platelets (type II) or on both platelets and monocytes (type I). Among 827 apparently healthy Japanese volunteers, the type I and II deficiencies were found in 8 (1.0%) and 48 (5.8%), respectively. The T for C substitution at nt478 for Pro90Ser and the insertion of A at nt1159 constituted the major causes of type I and II deficiencies. The dinucleotide del… Show more

“…The results also raise the possibility that the absence of CD36 in 5% of the Asian population offers protection against the platelet-activation component of amyloid-based diseases, a result that has important implications. 34 Recent publications described the presence of amyloid-␤ in platelet-derived microparticles in healthy subjects 35 and in patients with atherosclerotic disease 36 and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. 37 These particles are a source of tissue factor, which is the prime initiator of coagulation.…”

“…A lack of CD36 expression in platelets was first identified in a thrombocytopenic patient refractory to an HLA-matched platelet transfusion [9]. The incidence of types I and II CD36 deficiency among healthy Japanese volunteers were 1.0% and 5.8%, respectively [20]. From these two pieces of evidence, CD36-deficient individuals are thought to be apparently healthy without evidence of a hemostatic problem.…”

“…16 Genetic polymorphisms have been identified in Asian and African populations, which can lead to deficient or absent expression of CD36. 17,18 Monocyte-derived macrophages isolated from homozygous mutant patients bound 40% less OxLDL and accumulated 40% less cholesterol ester than cells derived from normal controls. 19 More recently, using macrophages derived from mice lacking both CD36 and the class A scavenger receptors, we demonstrated that the predominant receptor involved in recognition of pro-atherogenic LDL (either mildly oxidized by copper sulfate or oxidized by the myeloperoxide/hydrogen peroxide/nitrite system) was CD36; the combined effect of absence of both scavenger receptors was not significantly greater than absence of CD36 alone.…”
