Genetic deficiency of the plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) in mice unexpectedly causes a substantial impairment in liver secretion of apolipoprotein-B (apoB), the major protein of atherogenic lipoproteins. To explore the mechanism, we examined the three known pathways for hepatic apoB secretory control, namely endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/proteasome-associated degradation (ERAD), post-ER pre-secretory proteolysis (PERPP), and receptor-mediated degradation, also known as re-uptake. First, we found that ERAD and cell surface re-uptake were not active in PLTP-null hepatocytes. Moreover, ER-to-Golgi blockade by brefeldin A, which enhances ERAD, equalized total apoB recovery from PLTP-null and wild-type cells, indicating that the relevant process occurs post-ER. Second, because PERPP can be stimulated by intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), we examined hepatic redox status. Although we found previously that PLTP-null mice exhibit elevated plasma concentrations of vitamin E, a lipid anti-oxidant, we now discovered that their livers contain significantly less vitamin E and significantly more lipid peroxides than do livers of wild-type mice. Third, to establish a causal connection, the addition of vitamin E or treatment with an inhibitor of intracellular iron-dependent peroxidation, desferrioxamine, abolished the elevation in cellular ROS as well as the defect in apoB secretion from PLTP-null hepatocytes. Overall, we conclude that PLTP deficiency decreases liver vitamin E content, increases hepatic oxidant tone, and substantially enhances ROS-dependent destruction of newly synthesized apoB via a post-ER process. These findings are likely to be broadly relevant to hepatic apoB secretory control in vivo. 相似文献

Phospholipid transfer protein gene knock-out (Pltp KO) mice have defective transfer of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) phospholipids into high density lipoprotein (HDL) and markedly decreased HDL levels (Jiang et al. 1999. J. Clin. Invest. 103: 907-914). These animals also accumulated VLDL- and LDL-sized lipoproteins on a high saturated fat diet. The goals of this study were to further characterize the abnormal lipoproteins of Pltp KO mice and to determine the mechanisms responsible for low HDL levels. A lipoprotein fraction enriched in lamellar structures was isolated from the low density lipoprotein (LDL) region and was shown to be phospholipid- and free cholesterol-rich and to have apoA-IV (55%) and apoE (25%) as major apolipoproteins. The lamellar lipoproteins accumulating in these mice probably represent surface material derived from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL). The HDL was found to be protein-rich (primarily apoA-I) and specifically depleted in phosphatidylcholine (PC) (28% in wild-type mice (WT) vs. 15% in Pltp KO mice, P < 0.001). Unexpectedly, turnover studies using autologous HDL revealed a profound 4-fold increase in the catabolism of HDL protein and cholesteryl ester in Pltp KO mice compared to wild-type, with minor differences in synthesis rates. In contrast, injection of WT mouse HDL into Pltp KO mice showed only a 2-fold increase in fractional catabolism. Reminiscent of the defect in Tangier disease, the failure of transfer of PC from TRL into the HDL fraction results in dramatic hypercatabolism of HDL. These results suggest that defective phospholipid transfer from TRL into HDL, arising from decreased lipolysis or decreased PLTP activity, could lead to hypoalphalipoproteinemia characterized by hypercatabolism of HDL protein. lipoprotein levels, due to hypercatabolism, and accumulate apoA-IV-rich lamellar lipoproteins. 相似文献

Human microsomal triacylglycerol transfer protein (hMTP) is essential for apolipoprotein B (apoB)-lipoprotein assembly and secretion and is known to transfer triacylglycerols, cholesterol esters, and phospholipids. To understand the relative importance of each lipid transfer activity, we compared the ability of hMTP and its Drosophila ortholog (dMTP) to assemble apoB lipoproteins and to transfer various lipids. apoB48 secretion was induced when co-expressed with either hMTP or dMTP in COS cells, and oleic acid supplementation further augmented secretion without altering particle density. C-terminal epitope-tagged dMTP (dMTP-FLAG) facilitated the secretion of apoB polypeptides in the range of apoB48 to apoB72 but was approximately 50% as efficient as hMTP-FLAG. Comparison of lipid transfer activities revealed that although phospholipid transfer was similar in both orthologs, dMTP was unable to transfer neutral lipids. We conclude that the phospholipid transfer activity of MTP is sufficient for the assembly and secretion of primordial apoB lipoproteins and may represent its earliest function evolved for the mobilization of lipid in invertebrates. Identification of MTP inhibitors, which selectively affect transfer of a specific lipid class, may have therapeutic potential. 相似文献

The lipid free radical oxidation in low density lipoproteins was investigated on D-deficiency model in vivo. The processes of lipid free radical oxidative activation in low density lipoproteins at D-deficiency occurred. The chemiluminescence kinetic parameters: the maximum intensity of the first flash and inclination angle tangent of an ascending branch of the second flash grew at D-deficiency in comparison with control group (p < 0.02 and p < 0.05, respectively). At the same time, the vitamin D3 introduction to the experimental animals diet failed result statistically reliable inclination angle tangent of an ascending branch of the second flash was reduced (p < 0.02). Increase of the products reacting with thiobarbituric acid content in low density lipoproteins in D-deficiency conditions (p < 0.001) was found. Vitamin D3 introduction to the diet reduced quantity of products reacting with thiobarbituric acid in low density lipoproteins (p < 0.01). However, their level remained higher than for the control animals (p < 0.01) as established. 相似文献

Twelve clinically healthy subjects participated in a vitamin E supplementation study. Eight were given daily dosages of 150, 225, 800, or 1200 IU RRR-alpha-tocopherol for 21 days (two persons per dose) and four received placebo. Prior, during, and after the supplementation period, alpha-tocopherol, gamma-tocopherol, and carotenoids were determined in plasma and low density lipoprotein (LDL). The maximum levels of alpha-tocopherol were 1.7- to 2.5-times the baseline values in plasma and 1.7- to 3.1-times in LDL. A high correlation existed between alpha-tocopherol in plasma and LDL. gamma-Tocopherol significantly decreased in plasma and LDL during vitamin E supplementation. No significant influence on the lipoprotein and lipid status and carotenoid levels of the participants occurred throughout the supplementation. The resistance of LDL against copper-mediated oxidation was also measured. The oxidation resistance of LDL was significantly higher during vitamin E supplementation. However, the efficacy of vitamin E in protecting LDL varied from person to person. The statistical evaluation of all data gave a correlation of r2 = 0.51 between alpha-tocopherol in LDL and the oxidation resistance as measured by the length of the lag-phase preceding the oxidation of LDL. No association was seen between levels of carotenoids and vitamin E in plasma and LDL. The present study clearly shows that in humans the oxidation resistance of LDL can be increased by vitamin E supplementation. 相似文献

Cytochrome oxidase deficiency protects Escherichia coli from cell death but not from filamentation due to thymine deficiency or DNA polymerase inactivation 下载免费PDF全文
Temperature-sensitive DNA polymerase mutants (dnaE) are protected from cell death on incubation at nonpermissive temperature by mutation in the cydA gene controlling cytochrome bd oxidase. Protection is observed in complex (Luria-Bertani [LB]) medium but not on minimal medium. The cydA mutation protects a thymine-deficient strain from death in the absence of thymine on LB but not on minimal medium. Both dnaE and Deltathy mutants filament under nonpermissive conditions. Filamentation per se is not the cause of cell death, because the dnaE cydA double mutant forms long filaments after 24 h of incubation in LB medium at nonpermissive temperature. These filaments have multiply dispersed nucleoids and produce colonies on return to permissive conditions. The protective effect of a deficiency of cydA at high temperature is itself suppressed by overexpression of cytochrome bo3, indicating that the phenomenon is related to energy metabolism rather than to a specific effect of the cydA protein. We propose that filamentation and cell death resulting from thymine deprivation or slowing of DNA synthesis are not sequential events but occur in response to the same or a similar signal which is modulated in complex medium by cytochrome bd oxidase. The events which follow inhibition of replication fork progression due to either polymerase inactivation, thymine deprivation, or hydroxyurea inhibition differ in detail from those following actual DNA damage. 相似文献

The term vitamin E denotes a family of tocopherols and tocotrienols, plant lipids that are essential for vertebrate fertility and health. The principal form of vitamin E found in humans, RRR-alpha-tocopherol (TOH), is thought to protect cells by virtue of its ability to quench free radicals, and functions as the main lipid-soluble antioxidant. Regulation of vitamin E homeostasis occurs in the liver, where TOH is selectively retained while other forms of vitamin E are degraded. Through the action of tocopherol transfer protein (TTP), TOH is then secreted from the liver into circulating lipoproteins that deliver the vitamin to target tissues. Presently, very little is known regarding the intracellular transport of vitamin E. We utilized biochemical, pharmacological, and microscopic approaches to study this process in cultured hepatocytes. We observe that tocopherol-HDL complexes are efficiently internalized through scavenger receptor class B type I. Once internalized, tocopherol arrives within approximately 30 min at intracellular vesicular organelles, where it co-localizes with TTP, and with a marker of the lysosomal compartment (LAMP1), before being transported to the plasma membrane in a TTP-dependent manner. We further show that intracellular processing of tocopherol involves a functional interaction between TTP and an ABC-type transporter. 相似文献

A model system consisting of donor membrane (egg lecithin liposomes) and acceptor membrane (human erythrocyte ghosts or rat liver mitochondria) were used to investigate the alpha-tocopherol binding protein (alpha TBP) mediated transfer of alpha-tocopherol. Liposomes containing RRR-[alpha-3H]tocopherol ([alpha-3H]T) were incubated with acceptor membrane at 37 degrees C for 0-45 min in the presence or absence of rat liver cytosol or a dialyzed 30-60% saturated ammonium sulfate precipitated fraction of rat liver cytosol (Fraction B). Erythrocyte ghosts and liver mitochondria were compared and found to behave similarly in the presence of Fraction B. alpha-Tocopherol transfer activity (alpha TTA) typically varied 0- to 27-fold greater than buffer blanks, depending upon type and concentration of protein preparation. Gel filtration of Fraction B yielded one alpha TTA peak (liver mitochondria as acceptor) with an estimated Mr of 39,000. [alpha-3H]T recovered from erythrocyte ghosts pellets by HPLC suggest that the [alpha-3H]T was transferred intact. alpha TTA of Fraction B in the presence of varying concentrations of erythrocyte ghosts and liposomal [alpha-3H]T followed saturation kinetics. Optimal concentrations gave alpha TTA responses directly proportional to rat liver cytosol concentration. alpha TTA was inhibited only 5% in the presence of a 32-fold excess of cold liposomal alpha-tocopheryl acetate suggesting that the free hydroxyl group on the chromanol ring of alpha-tocopherol is needed for transfer. Coefficient of variation of repeated measures of alpha TTA in rat liver cytosol was 2.9%. Thus, the intermembrane transfer phenomenon of alpha-tocopherol can be studied quantitatively and can be used to compare liver protein preparations exhibiting transfer activity. 相似文献

Although numerous studies have investigated the relationship between cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) remodeling, the relationship between CETP and low density lipoproteins (LDL) is still not fully understood. In the present study, we examined the effect of the inhibition of CETP on both LDL oxidation and the uptake of the oxidized LDL, which were made from LDL under condition of CETP inhibition, by macrophages using a monoclonal antibody (mAb) to CETP in incubated plasma. The 6-h incubation of plasma derived from healthy, fasting human subjects led to the transfer of cholesteryl ester (CE) from HDL to VLDL and LDL, and of triglycerides (TG) from VLDL to HDL and LDL. These net mass transfers of neutral lipids among the lipoproteins were eliminated by the mAb. The incubation of plasma either with or without the mAb did not affect the phospholipid compositions in any lipoproteins. As a result, the LDL fractionated from the plasma incubated with the mAb contained significantly less CE and TG in comparison to the LDL fractionated from the plasma incubated without the mAb. The percentage of fatty acid composition of LDL did not differ among the unincubated plasma, the plasma incubated with the mAb, and that incubated without the mAb. When LDL were oxidized with CuSO4, the LDL fractionated from the plasma incubated with the mAb were significantly resistant to the oxidative modification determined by measuring the amount of TBARS and by continuously monitoring the formation of the conjugated dienes, in comparison to the LDL fractionated from the plasma incubated without the mAb. The accumulation of cholesteryl ester of oxidized LDL, which had been oxidized for 2 h with CuSO4, in J774.1 cells also decreased significantly in the LDL fractionated from the plasma incubated with mAb in comparison to the LDL fractionated from the plasma incubated without the mAb. These results indicate that CETP inhibition reduces the composition of CE and TG in LDL and makes the LDL resistant to oxidation. In addition, the uptake of the oxidized LDL, which was made from the LDL under condition of CETP inhibition, by macrophages also decreased. 相似文献

Vitamin E supplementation exhibits anti-inflammatory properties. In the lung, the beneficial effects of vitamin E supplementation on inflammation and infections are well documented, but potential consequences of alimentary vitamin E deficiency to the immunological status of lung cells are not known. It is unclear if temporary vitamin E deficiency exhibits deleterious consequences or can be compensated for by other cellular antioxidants. To address this question, the alimentary vitamin E supply to rats was modified. We then investigated the effects on major histocompatibility molecule (MHC) class II, cell adhesion molecules, interleukin (IL)10, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)alpha in various lung cells. The constitutive expression of MHC class II, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, L-selectin, alpha5-integrin, and CD 166, was demonstrated by flow cytometry on type II pneumocytes, alveolar macrophages, and on co-isolated lymphocytes. Vitamin E depletion increased ICAM-1 and CD166 on type II cells and macrophages, whereas the expression of L-selectin increased only on macrophages. Furthermore, the vitamin E depletion increased the cellular content and secretion of IL10 in type II cells, but decreased the content and secretion of TNFalpha. Vitamin E depletion decreased the cellular vitamin E content, but did not change the activity of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, superoxide dismutase) and the glutathion (GSH)/oxidized glutathion (GSSG) ratio in alveolar type II cells. The shift of protein kinase C (PKC) from the cytosol to membranes indicates that a PKC-dependent signaling pathway may be involved in the change of the immunological status of type II cells. All these effects were reversed by vitamin E repletion. In summary, these results are clearly compatible with the view that a temporary vitamin E deficiency induces a reversible immunological dysregulation in alveolar type II cells and lung macrophages. This deficiency might predispose the lung to develop acute or chronic inflammation. 相似文献

Addition of ascorbate or its generation from gulonolactone causes the oxidation of protein thiols and a simultaneous dehydroascorbate formation in rat liver microsomes. The participation of vitamin E in the phenomenon was studied. We measured ascorbate and protein thiol oxidation and lipid peroxidation in vitamin E deficient liver microsomes. Vitamin E deficiency partly uncoupled the two processes: ascorbate oxidation increased, while protein thiol oxidation decreased. These changes were accompanied with an accelerated lipid peroxidation in the vitamin E-deficient microsomes, which indicates the accumulation of reactive oxygen species. All these effects were reduced by the in vitro addition of vitamin E to the deficient microsomes, supporting its direct role in the process. The results demonstrate that vitamin E is a component of the protein thiol oxidizing machinery in the hepatic endoplasmic reticulum transferring electrons from the thiol groups towards oxygen. 相似文献
