Kinetics of transfer of alpha-tocopherol between model and native plasma lipoproteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The rate of spontaneous transfer of alpha-tocopherol, cholesterol and beta-carotene between model and native lipoproteins was measured to determine the mechanism and kinetics of equilibration of these lipids in plasma. Cholesterol and alpha-tocopherol transfer from apolipoprotein A-I/1-palmityl-2- oleoylphosphatidylcholine ( POPC ) recombinants to bovine brain ganglioside/ POPC single bilage vesicles with half-times of approximately 20 min and 70 min, respectively. Under identical conditions, there is no significant transfer of beta-carotene even after an 18-h incubation period. alpha-Tocopherol transfers from apolipoprotein A-II/dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine recombinants with a half-time of 40 min and an activation energy of 17.2 kcal/mol. Incubation of high-density lipoproteins containing alpha-[3H]tocopherol with low-density lipoproteins or very-low-density lipoproteins results in the equilibration of the labelled lipid between the lipoprotein classes in 1 h. A comparison of the rates of transfer indicates that alpha-tocopherol equilibrates 2-3-times more slowly than cholesterol but on a time scale much shorter than the lifetime of lipoproteins in the circulation. Thus, the distribution of alpha-tocopherol is not kinetically controlled but determined thermodynamically by the partitioning between the total amount of lipid in each compartment. The spontaneous transfer of beta-carotene is too slow for this equilibration to occur. 相似文献

The purpose of this report is to develop a correlation between the hydrophobicity of a phospholipid as measured by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography and its rate of spontaneous transfer and to use this correlation to predict the rate of transfer of any homologous lipid from any lipoprotein. We have studied the mechanism of transfer of a series of fluorescent or radiolabeled phospholipids among natural and reassembled serum lipoproteins. Fluorescent phosphatidylcholines included those with 9-(1-pyrenyl)nonanoic acid in the sn-2 position and lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic, oleic or linoleic acid at sn-1. The radioactive phosphatidylcholines contained [3H]oleic acid in the sn-2 position and lauric, myristic, or palmitic acid at sn-1. The kinetics of transfer of the pyrene-labeled lipid were followed by changes in the excimer fluorescence, and that of the radioactive lipids by separation of the donor (lipid-apolipoprotein recombinant) from the acceptor (single bilayer vesicles) on a column of Sephacryl S-200. The retention time of each lipid was measured by high-performance hydrophobic chromatography through a Waters radially compressed C18 column eluted with 75% isopropanol and 25% triethylammonium phosphate (0.15 M). A linear relationship was observed between the rate-constant of transfer and the retention time which suggest that the rate of desorption of phosphatidylcholines from lipoproteins and vesicles is controlled predominately by the hydrophobic effect. For a homologous series of lipids, the rate of transfer can be predicted from retention times obtained from hydrophobic chromatography. The kinetics of transfer of 1-lauroyl-2-[9-(1-pyrenyl)nonanoyl] phosphatidylcholine between isolated human serum lipoproteins exhibits a linear correlation between the transfer half-time and the size of the donor lipoproteins. As a consequence, transfer from very-low-density lipoprotein is 10-times slower than that observed from high-density lipoproteins. The observed correlations between phospholipid transfer rates and both the Stokes radius of the donor and the retention time of the phospholipid on a hydrophobic column permit one to calculate the rate of transfer of homologous molecules between lipid-protein complexes. The results predict that the spontaneous transfer of phospholipids between plasma lipoproteins would be too slow to be a physiologically important phenomena. 相似文献

Prostaglandin (PG) E1 was shown to stimulate the transfer of phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol esters from human high density lipoproteins to low density lipoproteins. The enhancement of the interlipoprotein lipid transfer by PGE1 was observed both at low prostaglandin concentrations under conditions of spontaneous exchange as well as in the presence of the lipoprotein-depleted plasma and the partly purified lipid transfer plasma protein. At the same time PGE2 showed no significant influence on the interlipoprotein lipid transfer. It is supposed that the effect of PGE1 is due to the PGE1-induced reorganization of the high density lipoprotein surface and that the PG-lipoprotein interaction is a factor which regulates cholesterol homeostasis. 相似文献

Action of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase on low-density lipoproteins in native pig plasma 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The action of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT, EC 2.3.1.43) on the different pig lipoprotein classes was investigated with emphasis on low-density lipoproteins (LDL). It was demonstrated previously that LDL can serve as substrate for LCAT, probably because they contain sufficient amounts of apoA-I and other non-apoB proteins, known as LCAT activators. Upon a 24-h incubation of pig plasma in vitro in the presence of active LCAT, both pig LDL subclasses, LDL-1 and LDL-2, fused together, forming one fraction, as revealed by analytical ultracentrifugation. This fusion was time dependent, becoming visible after 3 h and complete after 18 h of incubation. Concomitantly, free cholesterol and phospholipids decreased and cholesteryl esters increased. When isolated LDL-1 and LDL-2 were incubated with purified pig LCAT for 24 h, LDL-1 floated toward higher densities and LDL-2 toward lower densities, although this effect was not as pronounced as in incubations of whole serum. In further experiments, pig serum was incubated for various periods of time in the presence and absence of the LCAT inhibitor sodium iodoacetate. The individual lipoproteins then were separated by density gradient ultracentrifugation or by specific immunoprecipitation and chemically analyzed. Both methods revealed that in the absence of active LCAT there was a transfer of free cholesterol from LDL to high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and a small transfer of cholesteryl esters in the opposite direction. In the presence of LCAT the loss of free cholesterol started immediately in all three lipoprotein classes, was most prominent in LDL, and was proportional to the newly synthesized cholesteryl esters incorporated in each fraction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The specifics of nascent HDL remodeling within the plasma compartment remain poorly understood. We developed an in vitro assay to monitor the lipid transfer between model nascent HDL (LpA-I) and plasma lipoproteins. Incubation of α-125I-LpA-I with plasma resulted in association of LpA-I with existing plasma HDL, whereas incubation with TD plasma or LDL resulted in conversion of α-125I-LpA-I to preβ-HDL. To further investigate the dynamics of lipid transfer, nascent LpA-I were labeled with cell-derived [3 H]cholesterol (UC) or [3H]phosphatidylcholine (PC) and incubated with plasma at 37°C. The majority of UC and PC were rapidly transferred to apolipoprotein B (apoB). Subsequently, UC was redistributed to HDL for esterification before being returned to apoB. The presence of a phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) stimulator or purified PLTP promoted PC transfer to apoB. Conversely, PC transfer was abolished in plasma from PLTP−/− mice. Injection of 125I-LpA-I into rabbits resulted in a rapid size redistribution of 125I-LpA-I. The majority of [3H]UC from labeled r(HDL) was esterified in vivo within HDL, whereas a minority was found in LDL. These data suggest that apoB plays a major role in nascent HDL remodeling by accepting their lipids and donating UC to the LCAT reaction. The finding that nascent particles were depleted of their lipids and remodeled in the presence of plasma lipoproteins raises questions about their stability and subsequent interaction with LCAT. 相似文献

Lipid transfer protein-catalyzed exchange of cholesteryl ester between high density lipoproteins and apoB-containing lipoproteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Low density lipoproteins (LDL), lipoprotein (a)(Lp(a)), and lipoprotein(a) after removal of the a-protein (Lp(a-)) were compared with respect to their ability to accept cholesteryl ester from high density lipoproteins (HDL). The incubations were performed at constant concentrations of HDL and various concentrations of either LDL, Lp(a), or Lp(a-). Lp(a) exchanged cholesteryl ester with HDL, but at a rate that was only 48.5 +/- 3.8% of the exchange rate found in the presence of autologous LDL. Cleavage of the apo(a) from Lp(a) resulted in Lp(a-), an LDL-like particle, with characteristics of cholesteryl ester exchange very similar to LDL. 相似文献

Human cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates the net transfer of cholesteryl ester mass from atheroprotective high-density lipoproteins to atherogenic low-density lipoproteins by an unknown mechanism. Delineating this mechanism would be an important step toward the rational design of new CETP inhibitors for treating cardiovascular diseases. Using EM, single-particle image processing and molecular dynamics simulation, we discovered that CETP bridges a ternary complex with its N-terminal β-barrel domain penetrating into high-density lipoproteins and its C-terminal domain interacting with low-density lipoprotein or very-low-density lipoprotein. In our mechanistic model, the CETP lipoprotein-interacting regions, which are highly mobile, form pores that connect to a hydrophobic central cavity, thereby forming a tunnel for transfer of neutral lipids from donor to acceptor lipoproteins. These new insights into CETP transfer provide a molecular basis for analyzing mechanisms for CETP inhibition. 相似文献

The interactions between radiolabeled, human plasma lipoproteins and elastin derived from bovine ligamentum nuchae were investigated using a washout technique. The interaction was characterised by Ki, a coefficient of irreversible binding, and Kr, the reversible partition coefficient. For both low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and high-density lipoproteins (HDL) the Ki values decreased as total lipoprotein concentration increased, suggesting that the binding is saturable, and were similar in magnitude to those measured by other workers using elastin derived from the human aorta. For both LDL and HDL the Kr values were independent of lipoprotein concentration in the range 0.1 microgram/ml-1.5 micrograms/ml. At a total protein concentration of 1.5 mg/ml in the incubation medium, the reversible interactions were comparable in magnitude to the irreversible. 相似文献

The transfer kinetics of the neutral glycosphingolipid gangliotetraosylceramide (asialo-GM1) were investigated by monitoring tritiated asialo-GM1 movement from donor to acceptor vesicles. Two different methods were employed to separate donor and acceptor vesicles at desired time intervals. In one method, a negative charge was imparted to dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine donor vesicles by including 10 mol% dipalmitoylphosphatidic acid. Donors were separated from neutral dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine acceptor vesicles by ion-exchange chromatography. In the other method, small, unilamellar donor vesicles (20-nm diameter) and large, unilamellar acceptor vesicles (70-nm diameter) were coincubated at 45 degrees C and then separated at desired time intervals by molecular sieve chromatography. The majority of asialo-GM1 transfer to acceptor vesicles occurred as a slow first-order process with a half-time of about 24 days assuming that the relative concentration of asialo-GM1 in the phospholipid matrix was identical in each half of the donor bilayer and that no glycolipid flip-flop occurred. Asialo-GM1 net transfer was calculated relative to that of [14C]cholesteryl oleate, which served as a nontransferable marker in the donor vesicles. A nearly identical transfer half-time was obtained when the phospholipid matrix was changed from dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine to palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine. Varying the acceptor vesicle concentration did not significantly alter the asialo-GM1 transfer half-time. This result is consistent with a transfer mechanism involving diffusion of glycolipid through the aqueous phase rather than movement of glycolipid following formation of collisional complexes between donor and acceptor vesicles. When viewed within the context of other recent studies involving neutral glycosphingolipids, these findings provide additional evidence for the existence of microscopic, glycosphingolipid-enriched domains within the phospholipid bilayer. 相似文献

In order to determine the effects of a plasma phospholipid transfer protein on the transfer of phospholipids from very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) to high density lipoproteins (HDL) during lipolysis, biosynthetically labeled rat 32P-labeled VLDL was incubated with human HDL3 and bovine milk lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in the presence of the plasma d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction or a partially purified human plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PTP). The addition of either the PTP or the d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction resulted in a 2- to 3-fold stimulation of the transfer of phospholipid radioactivity from VLDL into HDL during lipolysis. In the absence of LPL, the PTP caused a less marked stimulation of transfer of phospholipid radioactivity. Both the d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction and the PTP enhanced the transfer of VLDL phospholipid mass into HDL, but the percentage transfer of phospholipid radioactivity was greater than that of phospholipid mass, suggesting stimulation of both transfer and exchange processes. Stimulation of phospholipid exchange was confirmed in experiments where PTP was found to augment transfer of [14C]phosphatidylcholine radioactivity from HDL to VLDL during lipolysis. In experiments performed with human VLDL and human HDL3, both the d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction and the PTP were found to stimulate phospholipid mass transfer from VLDL into HDL during lipolysis. Analysis of HDL by non-denaturing polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis showed that enhanced lipid transfer was associated with only a slight increase in particle size, suggesting incorporation of lipid by formation of new HDL particles. In conclusion, the plasma d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction and a plasma PTP enhance the net transfer of VLDL phospholipids into HDL and also exchange of the phospholipids of VLDL and HDL. Both the transfer and exchange activities of PTP are stimulated by lipolysis. 相似文献

Rates of exchange of labelled cholesterol between human erythrocytes and three plasma lipoprotein species, LDL, HDL2 and HDL3, were measured over a range of lipoprotein concentrations and temperatures. The exchange rates reached limiting, concentration-independent values, which were the same for the three lipoproteins. The temperature dependencies correspond to activation energies of 12 kcal in the limiting rate region, and at lower lipoprotein concentrations to activation energies of 11 to 22 kcal. Calculations based on simple collision theory indicate that energetic barriers to the exchange are far smaller than indicated by these activation energies and that no particular orientation of lipoprotein molecules is required for the exchange. The occurrence of a limiting rate may be a result of the adsorption of lipoprotein molecules onto a limited number of sites on the cell surface, or of a slow process occurring in the membrane, possibly the diffusion of cholesterol. Present data do not permit a choice between these models. 相似文献

Ultracentrifugally isolated human serum high density lipoproteins of d 1.063-1.21 (HDL) were incubated with egg yolk lipoproteins of d < 1.006 for up to 24 hr at various concentrations. Transfer of HDL cholesterol esters to egg yolk lipoproteins occurred simultaneously with transfer of glycerides from egg yolk lipoproteins to HDL. These observations show that exchange of lipids can take place between lipoproteins in the absence of other serum proteins and enzymes. The mole ratios of HDL cholesterol esters to glycerides approached an integral value of 1 : 1 during the course of the incubation. These results suggest that lipid components form complexes within the HDL structure. 相似文献

A simple protocol employing lipid transfer proteins was developed to label human low density lipoprotein (LDL) in a controlled manner with parinaroyl and pyrenyl phosphatidylcholines. In order to study the lipid fluidity in the surface lipid layer of LDL, the temperature-dependence of both polarization (parinaroyl probes) and excimer to monomer (E/M) intensity ratio (pyrenyl probes) were analyzed. A series of pyrenyl phosphatidylcholines containing a pyrenyl fatty acid varying from 6 to 14 carbons in length at the sn-2 position were inserted into LDL to investigate the lateral distribution of different phosphatidylcholines in the lipoprotein surface at 37 degrees C. Both polarization and E/M vs. temperature plots displayed discontinuities in the region of 22-32 degrees C, which coincides with the melting of the neutral lipid core, indicating that the latter induces an ordered to more disordered phase transition in the surface lipid layer. Determination of the E/M intensity ratio as a function of pyrene lipid concentration in LDL showed a linear relationship for the pyrenyl hexanoate and octanoate species, whereas a slope discontinuity was observed for the lipids containing a longer pyrenyl chain. These data suggest that two lipid domains with distinct properties exist in the surface layer and secondly, pyrenyl lipids partition between these domains in a chainlength-dependent manner. This is consistent with measurement of the tryptophan to pyrene energy transfer efficiency vs. pyrenyl lipid concentration, which showed a biphasic relationship for the long-chain pyrenyl lipids. These measurements further indicate that two surface lipid domains correspond to the protein-lipid boundary and the bulk lipid phase, respectively. The fact that relatively small changes in chainlength have a marked influence on the partitioning of pyrenyl lipids between the boundary and the bulk phase suggests also that native phospholipid species may not be randomly distributed in the surface lipid layer of LDL. 相似文献

Interfacial properties of model membranes and plasma lipoproteins containing ether lipids 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The interfacial properties of synthetic ester and ether phosphatidylcholines (PCs) were investigated by using the polarity-sensitive fluorescent probes 6-propionyl-2-(dimethylamino)naphthalene (Prodan) and pyrene. The physical state of the phospholipid matrix was determined by fluorescence polarization of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). Single-bilayer phospholipid vesicles formed by sonication and model high-density lipoproteins were studied. On the basis of a number of spectroscopic and thermodynamic criteria, the interfacial regions of PCs and their ether analogues are similar. The fluorescence properties of Prodan in model lipoproteins or single-bilayer vesicles were independent of the phospholipid fatty acyl chain length and polar head group, as well as the substitution of ether linkage for ester bonds in the phospholipid. The spectral shifts correlated mainly with the physical state of the phospholipid. The emission spectrum of Prodan appeared at shorter wavelengths upon transfer from water to liquid-crystalline phospholipid and blue shifted further when the lipid was cooled to its gel phase. The effect of cholesterol in model high-density lipoproteins on the emission spectrum of Prodan was dose dependent and, at 18 mol % cholesterol, the spectrum was similar to that observed in a pure gel-phase lipid and was independent of temperature. The quantum yield of Prodan fluorescence in an ether-PC matrix was similar to that observed in water, whereas in an ester-PC matrix it was enhanced by a factor of about 5. Phospholipid-water partition coefficients of Prodan were independent of the physical state of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or 1,2-tetradecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The kinetics of spontaneous transfer of various glucosyl- and galactosylceramides between 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine vesicles have been examined at 45 degrees C. Bovine brain galactosylceramides, kerasin and phrenosin, were found to transfer with biexponential kinetics. The kerasin fast pool is approximately 17% with a half-time of 29 h and the slow pool approximately 83% with a half-time of 2700 h. In contrast, semisynthetic N-palmitoylgalactosylceramide at the same temperature transfers with single-exponential kinetics with a half-time of 32 h. The half-time for N-lignoceroylgalactosylceramide under the same conditions proved to be greater than 3500 h. No concentration dependence for these half-times was found in the concentration range studied (0-10 mol%). Similar results were obtained for semisynthetic glucosylceramides. The biexponential kinetics observed for the two bovine brain ceramides, both of which are mixtures of short and long acyl chain molecules, are most probably a reflection of the strong dependence of transfer rate on acyl chain length. The very slow transfer rates of the long acyl chain hexosylceramides ensure that these molecules are lost very slowly, if at all, by spontaneous transfer from the external surface of plasma membranes; a result that is consistent with the putative biological role of glycosphingolipids. 相似文献

Interactions between model triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins and high-density lipoproteins in rat, rabbit and man 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
There are inverse relationships between HDL cholesterol and plasma triacylglycerol concentrations in normal and in hypertriglyceridemic individuals. To investigate the interactions between triacylglycerol-rich lipid particles and HDL, a lipid emulsion model of the triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins was prepared. When emulsion particles were incubated with rat high-density lipoproteins (HDL) in the presence of lipid transfer activity (d greater than 1.21 g/ml fractions) from rabbit or human plasma there was a rapid bi-directional exchange of cholesteryl oleate (CO) and phospholipid (PL) labels between lighter and heavier fractions of HDL and emulsion particles. The transfers of CO and PL labels between both light and heavy fractions of HDL and the emulsion particles were increased with increasing amounts of emulsion added to the incubations. Incubation with the d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction from rat plasma resulted in only a small exchange of CO whereas PL exchange was similar to rabbit and human plasma. Retinyl palmitate label was not transferred from emulsion particles to the HDL fractions even in the presence of lipid transfer activity from rabbit or human plasma. The present study shows that the transfer protein-mediated exchanges of surface and core lipids between HDL and the triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins are affected by the quantity of triacylglycerol-rich particles in the system. This mechanism may contribute to the inverse relationships between plasma triacylglycerol concentrations and HDL concentrations in normal and hypertriglyceridemic individuals. 相似文献

The role of purified plasma lipid transfer protein complexes in determining the particle size distribution of human plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL) was examined in vitro. Incubation of HDL2 or HDL3, isolated from normolipemic subjects with very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) or VLDL-remnants and lipid transfer protein complex had little or no effect on HDL particle size. In contrast, HDL isolated from patients with hypertriglyceridemia, designated HDL3D, showed speciation of particle size distribution when incubated with VLDL-remnants and the transfer protein. Incubation of HDL3D with VLDL-remnants and lipid transfer complex resulted in the production of two particles of radius 4.3 and 3.7 nm; incubation with VLDL or in the absence of the transfer protein did not result in a redistribution of particle size. We suggest that the action of lipid transfer protein complex on triacylglycerol-rich lipoprotein remnants and HDL accounts for the low levels of HDL-cholesterol observed in subjects with severe hypertriglyceridemia. 相似文献
