Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a monogenic dominant inherited disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by elevated low-density lipoprotein levels, and is mainly attributable to mutations in low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), apolipoprotein B (APOB), and proportein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) genes.

While high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are positively associated with cardiovascular events, it is still unclear whether familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and Tangier's disease (TD), caused by mutations in LDLR and ABCA1, respectively, influence ischemic stroke (IS) in humans.

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is the most appropriate model for understanding the effects of excess LDL-C because affected individuals have inherently high levels of circulating LDL-C. To clarify the effects of hypercholesterolemia on cerebral small vessel disease (SVD), we investigated cerebrovascular damage in detail due to elevated LDL-C using high resolution brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with FH.
