Recently, two ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporters, ABCG5 and ABCG8, have been described as playing an important role in the absorption and excretion of sterols. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that genetic variation in ABCG5\/ABCG8 influences the levels of serum plant sterol (sitosterol) and cholesterol precursor (lathosterol) in Japanese primary hypercholesterolaemic patients (n=100). We identified a novel mutation [859T\/C (C287R)] and a novel polymorphism [1285A\/G (M429V)] at the ABCG5\/ABCG8 loci, as well as four polymorphisms reported previously [1810C\/G (Q604E), 161G\/A (C54Y), 1199C\/A (T400K) and 1895C\/T (A632V)]. In carriers of the novel M429V variant, the serum level of sitosterol and the sitosterol\/cholesterol ratio were significantly higher than those in non-carriers (3.64 compared with 2.56\u00a0\u03bcg\/ml, and 1.45\u00a0\u03bcg\/mg compared with 1.00\u00a0\u03bcg\/mg respectively; P&amp;lt;0.01 for both), and serum lathosterol tended to be lower (1.95\u00a0\u03bcg\/ml compared with 3.03\u00a0\u03bcg\/ml; P=0.08), whereas no significant difference was observed in other lipid profiles. These four polymorphisms (1810C\/G, 161G\/A, 1199C\/A and 1285A\/G) generated six haplotypes, and the C\/G\/C\/G haplotype was significantly associated with a higher sitosterol level and sitosterol\/cholesterol ratio compared with the other five haplotypes (P&amp;lt;0.05 for both). We conclude that, in 8% of patients with hypercholesterolaemia, the novel ABCG8 M429V variant was associated with higher cholesterol absorption efficiency. Future studies should investigate whether these findings have implications for the optimal cholesterol-lowering drug treatment in hypercholesterolaemic patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1042\/cs20050030","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,7,25]],"date-time":"2005-07-25T07:23:02Z","timestamp":1122276182000},"page":"183-188","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1042\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":47,"title":["ATP-binding cassette transporter G8 M429V polymorphism as a novel genetic marker of higher cholesterol absorption in hypercholesterolaemic Japanese subjects"],"prefix":"10.1042","volume":"109","author":[{"given":"Kenji","family":"Miwa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Akihiro","family":"Inazu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Sciences, School of Health Science, Faculty of Medicine, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Junji","family":"Kobayashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Lifestyle-related Disease, Kanazawa University Graduate School of Medical Science, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641 Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Toshinori","family":"Higashikata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Atsushi","family":"Nohara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Masaaki","family":"Kawashiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shoji","family":"Katsuda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mutsuko","family":"Takata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Junji","family":"Koizumi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of General Medicine, Kanazawa University Hospital, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hiroshi","family":"Mabuchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Molecular Genetics of Cardiovascular Disorders, Division of Cardiology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kanazawa University, Takara-machi 13-1, Kanazawa 920-8641, Japan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"288","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,7,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021120120421584100_B1","first-page":"300","article-title":"Detection of changes in human cholesterol metabolism","volume":"2","author":"Miettinen","year":"1970","journal-title":"Ann.
