LDLR and familial hyperaldosteronism: Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is caused by mutations in lipid metabolism genes, predominantly in low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), apolipoprotein B (APOB), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin-type 9 (PCSK9) and LDL receptor adaptor protein 1 (LDLRAP1).
