Abstract | Context: Objectives: Design and Setting: We determined the concentrations of sterol markers of cholesterol synthesis, absorption, and catabolism by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry and evaluated serum lipoprotein profiles. Subjects: Twenty citrin-deficient children aged 5 to 13 years and 37 age-matched healthy children. Intervention: None. Main Outcome Measures: Results: Conclusions: HDL-C and sterol marker concentrations are elevated in citrin-deficient children post- NICCD. Moreover, cholesterol synthesis and elimination are markedly enhanced in the liver and brain of citrin-deficient children.
