“…Their hypothesis is supported by the demonstration that fat tissue transplanted to an atrophic site atrophies while dystrophic cells can reaccumulate fat if placed in a non-atrophic area [49]. On the other hand, there are at least two instances [26,50] where normal fat survived when transplanted to an atrophic area. The failure of the tissue to be re-enervated normally could possibly explain these latter results although this is, of course, speculative.…”

A familial syndrome of partial lipodystrophy inherited as a dominant trait is reported. Subcutaneous fat loss was confined to the extremities and trunk. Diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hepatomegaly and renal disease were very prevalent in this family. Metabolic studies were performed on 3 members. In vivo tests suggested that the remaining fat tissue responded normally to stimulators and inhibitors of lipolysis. In vitro incubation of the dystrophic fat tissue of one patient suggested that the intracellular pathways of lipid and glucose metabolism were normal. The pattern of subcutaneous loss of adipose tissue observed in this family may be due to sympathetic nervous system overactivity of certain non-contiguous dermatomes.
