Recent developments in lipid metabolism have shown the importance of ATP binding cassette transporters (ABCs) in controlling cellular and total body lipid homeostasis. ABCA1 mediates the transport of cholesterol and phospholipids from cells to lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), whereas ABCG1 and ABCG4 mediate the transport of cholesterol from cells to lipidated lipoproteins. ABCA1, ABCG1, and ABCG4 are all expressed in cholesterol-loaded macrophages, and macrophages from ABCA1 and ABCG1 knockout mice accumulate cholesteryl esters. Here, we show that the lipidated particles generated by incubating cells overexpressing ABCA1 with apoA-I are efficient acceptors for cholesterol released from cells overexpressing either ABCG1 or ABCG4. The cholesterol released to the particles was derived from a cholesterol oxidase-accessible plasma membrane pool in both ABCG1 and ABCG4 cells, which is the same pool of cholesterol shown previously to be removed by high density lipoproteins. ABCA1 cells incubated with apoA-I generated two major populations of cholesterol- and phospholipid-rich lipoprotein particles that were converted by ABCG1 or ABCG4 cells to one major particle population that was highly enriched in cholesterol. These results suggest that ABCG1 and ABCG4 act in concert with ABCA1 to maximize the removal of excess cholesterol from cells and to generate cholesterol-rich lipoprotein particles.  相似文献

It is well accepted that both apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and ABCA1 play crucial roles in HDL biogenesis and in the human atheroprotective system. However, the nature and specifics of apoA-I/ABCA1 interactions remain poorly understood. Here, we present evidence for a new cellular apoA-I binding site having a 9-fold higher capacity to bind apoA-I compared with the ABCA1 site in fibroblasts stimulated with 22-(R)-hydroxycholesterol/9-cis-retinoic acid. This new cellular apoA-I binding site was designated \"high-capacity binding site\" (HCBS). Glyburide drastically reduced (125)I-apoA-I binding to the HCBS, whereas (125)I-apoA-I showed no significant binding to the HCBS in ABCA1 mutant (Q597R) fibroblasts. Furthermore, reconstituted HDL exhibited reduced affinity for the HCBS. Deletion of the C-terminal region of apoA-I (Delta187-243) drastically reduced the binding of apoA-I to the HCBS. Interestingly, overexpressing various levels of ABCA1 in BHK cells promoted the formation of the HCBS. The majority of the HCBS was localized to the plasma membrane (PM) and was not associated with membrane raft domains. Importantly, treatment of cells with phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, but not sphingomyelinase, concomitantly reduced the binding of (125)I-apoA-I to the HCBS, apoA-I-mediated cholesterol efflux, and the formation of nascent apoA-I-containing particles. Together, these data suggest that a functional ABCA1 leads to the formation of a major lipid-containing site for the binding and the lipidation of apoA-I at the PM. Our results provide a biochemical basis for the HDL biogenesis pathway that involves both ABCA1 and the HCBS, supporting a two binding site model for ABCA1-mediated nascent HDL genesis.  相似文献

Patients homozygous for Tangier disease have a near absence of plasma HDL as a result of mutations in ABCA1 and hypercatabolize normal HDL particles. To determine the relationship between ABCA1 expression and HDL catabolism, we investigated intravascular remodeling, plasma clearance, and organ-specific uptake of HDL in mice expressing the human apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) transgene in the Abca1 knockout background. Small HDL particles (7.5 nm), radiolabeled with (125)I-tyramine cellobiose, were injected into recipient mice to quantify plasma turnover and the organ uptake of tracer. Small HDL tracer was remodeled to 8.2 nm diameter particles within 5 min in human apolipoprotein A-I transgenic (hA-I(Tg)) mice (control) and knockout mice. Decay of tracer from plasma was 1.6-fold more rapid in knockout mice (P < 0.05) and kidney uptake was twice that of controls, with no difference in liver uptake. We also observed 2-fold greater hepatic expression of ABCA1 protein in hA-I(Tg) mice compared with nontransgenic mice, suggesting that overexpression of human apoA-I stabilized hepatic ABCA1 protein in vivo. We conclude that ABCA1 is not required for in vivo remodeling of small HDLs to larger HDL subfractions and that the hypercatabolism of normal HDL particles in knockout mice is attributable to a selective catabolism of HDL apoA-I by the kidney.  相似文献

Cholesterol and phospholipids are essential to the body, but an excess of cholesterol or lipids is toxic and a risk factor for arteriosclerosis. ABCG1, one of the half-type ABC proteins, is thought to be involved in cholesterol homeostasis. To explore the role of ABCG1 in cholesterol homeostasis, we examined its subcellular localization and function. ABCG1 and ABCG1-K120M, a WalkerA lysine mutant, were localized to the plasma membrane in HEK293 cells stably expressing ABCG1 and formed a homodimer. A stable transformant expressing ABCG1 exhibited efflux of cholesterol and choline phospholipids in the presence of BSA, and the cholesterol efflux was enhanced by the presence of HDL, whereas cells expressing ABCG1-K120M did not, suggesting that ATP binding and/or hydrolysis is required for the efflux. Mass and TLC analyses revealed that ABCG1 and ABCA1 secrete several species of sphingomyelin (SM) and phosphatidylcholine (PC), and SMs were preferentially secreted by ABCG1, whereas PCs were preferentially secreted by ABCA1. These results suggest that ABCA1 and ABCG1 mediate the lipid efflux in different mechanisms, in which different species of phospholipids are secreted, and function coordinately in the removal of cholesterol and phospholipids from peripheral cells.  相似文献

Serum amyloid A (SAA) was markedly increased in the plasma and in the liver upon acute inflammation induced by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice, and SAA in the plasma was exclusively associated with HDL. In contrast, no HDL was present in the plasma and only a small amount of SAA was found in the VLDL/LDL fraction (d < 1.063 g/ml) after the induction of inflammation in ABCA1-knockout (KO) mice, although SAA increased in the liver. Primary hepatocytes isolated from LPS-treated wild-type (WT) and ABCA1-KO mice both secreted SAA into the medium. SAA secreted from WT hepatocytes was associated with HDL, whereas SAA from ABCA1-KO hepatocytes was recovered in the fraction that was >1.21 g/ml. The behavior of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) was the same as that of SAA in HDL biogenesis by WT and ABCA1-KO mouse hepatocytes. Lipid-free SAA and apoA-I both stabilized ABCA1 and caused cellular lipid release in WT mouse-derived fibroblasts, but not in ABCA1-KO mouse-derived fibroblasts, in vitro when added exogenously. We conclude that both SAA and apoA-I generate HDL largely in hepatocytes only in the presence of ABCA1, likely being secreted in a lipid-free form to interact with cellular ABCA1. In the absence of ABCA1, nonlipidated SAA is seemingly removed rapidly from the extracellular space.  相似文献

We previously reported that cholesterol-enriched macrophages excrete cholesterol into the extracellular matrix. A monoclonal antibody that detects cholesterol microdomains labels the deposited extracellular particles. Macro­phage deposition of extracellular cholesterol depends, in part, on ABCG1, and this cholesterol can be mobilized by HDL components of the reverse cholesterol transport process. The objective of the current study was to determine whether ABCA1 also contributes to macrophage deposition of extracellular cholesterol. ABCA1 functioned in extracellular cholesterol deposition. The liver X receptor agonist, TO901317 (TO9), an ABCA1-inducing factor, restored cholesterol deposition that was absent in cholesterol-enriched ABCG1−/− mouse macrophages. In addition, the ABCA1 inhibitor, probucol, blocked the increment in cholesterol deposited by TO9-treated wild-type macrophages, and completely inhibited deposition from TO9-treated ABCG1−/− macrophages. Lastly, ABCA1−/− macrophages deposited much less extracellular cholesterol than wild-type macrophages. These findings demonstrate a novel function of ABCA1 in contributing to macrophage export of cholesterol into the extracellular matrix.  相似文献

It is generally thought that the large heterogeneity of human HDL confers antiatherogenic properties; however, the mechanisms governing HDL biogenesis and speciation are complex and poorly understood. Here, we show that incubation of exogenous apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) with fibroblasts, CaCo-2, or CHO-overexpressing ABCA1 cells generates only alpha-nascent apolipoprotein A-I-containing particles (alpha-LpA-I) with diameters of 8-20 nm, whereas human umbilical vein endothelial cells and ABCA1 mutant (Q597R) cells were unable to form such particles. Interestingly, incubation of exogenous apoA-I with either HepG2 or macrophages generates both alpha-LpA-I and prebeta1-LpA-I. Furthermore, glyburide inhibits almost completely the formation of alpha-LpA-I but not prebeta1-LpA-I. Similarly, endogenously secreted HepG2 apoA-I was found to be associated with both prebeta1-LpA-I and alpha-LpA-I; by contrast, CaCo-2 cells secreted only alpha-LpA-I. To determine whether alpha-LpA-I generated by fibroblasts is a good substrate for LCAT, isolated alpha-LpA-I as well as reconstituted HDL [r(HDL)] was reacted with LCAT. Although both particles had similar V(max) (8.4 vs. 8.2 nmol cholesteryl ester/h/microg LCAT, respectively), the K(m) value was increased 2-fold for alpha-LpA-I compared with r(HDL) (1.2 vs. 0.7 microM apoA-I). These results demonstrate that 1) ABCA1 is required for the formation of alpha-LpA-I but not prebeta1-LpA-I; and 2) alpha-LpA-I interacts efficiently with LCAT. Thus, our study provides direct evidence for a new link between specific cell lines and the speciation of nascent HDL that occurs by both ABCA1-dependent and -independent pathways.  相似文献

HDL is the primary mediator of cholesterol mobilization from the periphery to the liver via reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). A critical first step in this process is the uptake of cholesterol from lipid-loaded macrophages by HDL, a function of HDL inversely associated with prevalent and incident cardiovascular disease. We hypothesized that the dynamic ability of HDL to undergo remodeling and exchange of apoA-I is an important and potentially rate-limiting aspect of RCT. In this study, we investigated the relationship between HDL-apoA-I exchange (HAE) and serum HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) efflux capacity. We compared HAE to the total and ABCA1-specific cholesterol efflux capacity of 77 subjects. We found that HAE was highly correlated with both total (r = 0.69, P < 0.0001) and ABCA1-specific (r = 0.47, P < 0.0001) efflux, and this relationship remained significant after adjustment for HDL-C or apoA-I. Multivariate models of sterol efflux capacity indicated that HAE accounted for approximately 25% of the model variance for both total and ABCA1-specific efflux. We conclude that the ability of HDL to exchange apoA-I and remodel, as measured by HAE, is a significant contributor to serum HDL efflux capacity, independent of HDL-C and apoA-I, indicating that HDL dynamics are an important factor in cholesterol efflux capacity and likely RCT.  相似文献

Cholesterol efflux from macrophages is a critical mechanism to prevent the development of atherosclerosis. Here, we sought to investigate the effects of arctigenin, a bioactive component of Arctium lappa, on the cholesterol efflux in oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL)-loaded THP-1 macrophages. Our data showed that arctigenin significantly accelerated apolipoprotein A-I- and high-density lipoprotein-induced cholesterol efflux in both dose- and time-dependent manners. Moreover, arctigenin treatment enhanced the expression of ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), ABCG1, and apoE, all of which are key molecules in the initial step of cholesterol efflux, at both mRNA and protein levels. Arctigenin also caused a concentration-dependent elevation in the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ) and liver X receptor-alpha (LXR-α). The arctigenin-mediated induction of ABCA1, ABCG1, and apoE was abolished by specific inhibition of PPAR-γ or LXR-α using small interfering RNA technology. Our results collectively indicate that arctigenin promotes cholesterol efflux in oxLDL-loaded THP-1 macrophages through upregulation of ABCA1, ABCG1 and apoE, which is dependent on the enhanced expression of PPAR-γ and LXR-α.  相似文献

It has been suggested that ABCA1 interacts preferentially with lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I). Here, we show that treatment of plasma with dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) multilamellar vesicles generates prebeta(1)-apoA-I-containing lipoproteins (LpA-I)-like particles similar to those of native plasma. Isolated prebeta(1)-LpA-I-like particles inhibited the binding of (125)I-apoA-I to ABCA1 more efficiently than HDL(3) (IC(50) = 2.20 +/- 0.35 vs. 37.60 +/- 4.78 microg/ml). We next investigated the ability of DMPC-treated plasma to promote phospholipid and unesterified (free) cholesterol efflux from J774 macrophages stimulated or not with cAMP. At 2 mg DMPC/ml plasma, both phospholipid and free cholesterol efflux were increased ( approximately 50% and 40%, respectively) in cAMP-stimulated cells compared with unstimulated cells. Similarly, both phospholipid and free cholesterol efflux to either isolated native prebeta(1)-LpA-I and prebeta(1)-LpA-I-like particles were increased significantly in stimulated cells. Furthermore, glyburide significantly inhibited phospholipid and free cholesterol efflux to DMPC-treated plasma. Removal of apoA-I-containing lipoproteins from normolipidemic plasma drastically reduced free cholesterol efflux mediated by DMPC-treated plasma. Finally, treatment of Tangier disease plasma with DMPC affected the amount of neither prebeta(1)-LpA-I nor free cholesterol efflux. These results indicate that DMPC enrichment of normal plasma resulted in the redistribution of apoA-I from alpha-HDL to prebeta-HDL, allowing for more efficient ABCA1-mediated cellular lipid release. Increasing the plasma prebeta(1)-LpA-I level by either pharmacological agents or direct infusions might prevent foam cell formation and reduce atherosclerotic vascular disease.  相似文献

To study the mechanisms of hepatic HDL formation, we investigated the roles of ABCA1, ABCG1, and SR-BI in nascent HDL formation in primary hepatocytes isolated from mice deficient in ABCA1, ABCG1, or SR-BI and from wild-type (WT) mice. Under basal conditions, in WT hepatocytes, cholesterol efflux to exogenous apoA-I was accompanied by conversion of apoA-I to HDL-sized particles. LXR activation by T0901317 markedly enhanced the formation of larger HDL-sized particles as well as cellular cholesterol efflux to apoA-I. Glyburide treatment completely abolished the formation of 7.4 nm diameter and greater particles but led to the formation of novel 7.2 nm-sized particles. However, cells lacking ABCA1 failed to form such particles. ABCG1-deficient cells showed similar capacity to efflux cholesterol to apoA-I and to form nascent HDL particles compared with WT cells. Cholesterol efflux to apoA-I and nascent HDL formation were slightly but significantly enhanced in SR-BI-deficient cells compared with WT cells under basal but not LXR activated conditions. As in WT but not in ABCA1-deficient hepatocytes, 7.2 nm-sized particles generated by glyburide treatment were also detected in ABCG1-deficient and SR-BI-deficient hepatocytes. Our data indicate that hepatic nascent HDL formation is highly dependent on ABCA1 but not on ABCG1 or SR-BI.  相似文献

Mutations in the ABCA1 gene are the cause of familial high density lipoprotein deficiency (FHD). Because these mutations are spread over the entire gene, their detection requires the sequencing of all 50 exons. The aim of this study was to validate denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) in mutation detection as an alternative to systematic sequencing. Exons of the ABCA1 gene were amplified using primers employed for sequencing. Temperatures for DHPLC were deducted from a software and empirically defined for each amplicon. To assess DHPLC reliability, we tested 30 sequence variants found in FHD patients and controls. Combined DHPLC and sequencing was applied to the genotyping of new FHD patients. Most of the amplicons required from two to five temperature conditions to obtain partially denatured DNA over the entire amplicon length. Twenty-nine of the variants found by sequencing were detected by DHPLC (97% sensitivity). The detection of the last variant (in exon 40) required different primers and amplification conditions. DHPLC and sequencing analysis of new FHD patients revealed that all amplicons showing a heteroduplex DHPLC profile contained sequence variants. No variants were detected in amplicons with a homoduplex profile. DHPLC is a sensitive and reliable method for the detection of ABCA1 gene mutations.  相似文献

It has been suggested that the signal transduction initiated by apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) activates key proteins involved in cholesterol efflux. ABCA1 serves as a binding partner for apoA-I, but its participation in apoA-I-induced signaling remains uncertain. We show that the exposure of human fibroblasts to ABCA1 ligands (apolipoproteins and amphipathic helical peptides) results in the generation of intracellular signals, including activation of the small G-protein Cdc42, protein kinases (PAK-1 and p54JNK), and actin polymerization. ApoA-I-induced signaling was abrogated by glyburide, an inhibitor of the ABC transporter family, and in fibroblasts from patients with Tangier disease, which do not express ABCA1. Conversely, induction of ABCA1 expression with the liver X receptor agonist, T0901317, and the retinoid X receptor agonist, R0264456, potentiated apoA-I-induced signaling. Similar effects were observed in HEK293 cells overexpressing ABCA1-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein, but not ABCA1-GFP (K939M), which fails to hydrolyze ATP, or a nonfunctional ABCA1-GFP with a truncated C terminus. We further found that Cdc42 coimmunoprecipitates with ABCA1 in ABCA1-GFP-expressing HEK293 cells exposed to apoA-I but not in cells expressing ABCA1 mutants. We conclude that ABCA1 transduces signals from apoA-I by complexing and activating Cdc42 and downstream kinases and, therefore, acts as a full apoA-I receptor.  相似文献

Endocytosis of LDL and modified LDL represents regulated and unregulated cholesterol delivery to macrophages. To elucidate the mechanisms of cellular cholesterol transport and egress under both conditions, various primary macrophages were labeled and loaded with cholesterol or cholesteryl ester from LDL or acetylated low density lipoprotein (AcLDL), and the cellular cholesterol traffic pathways were examined. Confocal microscopy using fluorescently labeled 3,3'-dioctyldecyloxacarbocyanine perchlorate-labeled LDL and 1,1'-dioctyldecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindodicarbocyanine perchlorate-labeled AcLDL demonstrated their discrete traffic pathways and accumulation in distinct endosomes. ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux to apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) was much greater for AcLDL-loaded macrophages compared with LDL. Treatment with the liver X receptor ligand 22-OH increased efflux to apoA-I in AcLDL-loaded but not LDL-loaded cells. In contrast, at a level equivalent to AcLDL, LDL-derived cholesterol was preferentially effluxed to HDL, in keeping with increased ABCG1. In vivo studies of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) from cholesterol-labeled macrophages injected intraperitoneally demonstrated that LDL-derived cholesterol was more efficiently transported to the liver and secreted into bile than AcLDL-derived cholesterol. This indicates a greater efficiency of HDL than lipid-poor apoA-I in interstitial fluid in controlling in vivo RCT. These assays, taken together, emphasize the importance of mediators of diffusional cholesterol efflux in RCT.  相似文献
