The murine class B, type I scavenger receptor mSR-BI is a high and low density lipoprotein (HDL and LDL) receptor that mediates selective uptake of cholesteryl esters. Here we describe a reconstituted phospholipid/cholesterol liposome assay of the binding and selective uptake activities of SR-BI derived from detergent-solubilized cells. The assay, employing lysates from epitope-tagged receptor (mSR-BI-t1)-expressing mammalian and insect cells, recapitulated many features of SR-BI activity in intact cells, including high affinity and saturable (125)I-HDL binding, selective lipid uptake from [(3)H]cholesteryl ether-labeled HDL, and poor inhibition of HDL receptor activity by LDL. The novel properties of a mutated receptor (Q402R/Q418R, normal LDL binding but loss of most HDL binding) were reproduced in the assay, as was the ability of the SR-BI homologue CD36 to bind HDL but not mediate efficient lipid uptake. In this assay, essentially homogeneously pure mSR-BI-t1, prepared by single-step immunoaffinity chromatography, mediated high affinity HDL binding and efficient selective lipid uptake from HDL. Thus, SR-BI-mediated HDL binding and selective lipid uptake are intrinsic properties of the receptor that do not require the intervention of other proteins or specific cellular structures or compartments. 相似文献

Hypochlorous acid/hypochlorite (HOCl/OCl(-)), a potent oxidant generated in vivo by the myeloperoxidase-H(2)O(2)-chloride system of activated phagocytes, alters the physiological properties of high density lipoprotein (HDL) by generating a proatherogenic lipoprotein particle. On endothelial cells lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) and scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), act in concert by mediating the holoparticle of and selective cholesteryl ester uptake from HOCl-HDL. We therefore investigated the ligand specificity of HOCl-HDL to SR-BI-overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary cells. Binding of HOCl-HDL was saturable, and the degree of HOCl modification was the determining factor for increased binding affinity to SR-BI. Competition experiments further confirmed that HOCl-HDL binds with increased affinity to the same or overlapping domain(s) of SR-BI as does native HDL. Furthermore, SR-BI-mediated selective HDL-cholesteryl ester association as well as time- and concentration-dependent cholesterol efflux from SR-BI overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary cells were, depending on the degree of HOCl modification of HDL, markedly impaired. The most significant findings of this study were that the presence of very low concentrations of HOCl-HDL severely impaired SR-BI-mediated bidirectional cholesterol flux mediated by native HDL. The colocalization of immunoreactive HOCl-modified epitopes with apolipoprotein A-I along with deposits of lipids in serial sections of human atheroma shown here indicates that the myeloperoxidase-H(2)O(2)-halide system contributes to oxidative damage of HDL in vivo. 相似文献

We have mapped the domains of lipid-free apoA-I that promote cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent cholesterol and phospholipid efflux. The cAMP-dependent lipid efflux in J774 mouse macrophages was decreased by approximately 80-92% by apoA-I[delta(185-243)], only by 15% by apoA-I[delta(1-41)] or apoA-I[delta(1-59)], and was restored to 75-80% of the wild-type apoA-I control value by double deletion mutants apoA-I[delta(1-41)delta(185-243)] and apoA-I[delta(1-59)delta(185-243)]. Similar results were obtained in HEK293 cells transfected with an ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) expression plasmid. The double deletion mutant of apoA-I had reduced thermal and chemical stability compared with wild-type apoA-I. Sequential carboxyl-terminal deletions showed that cAMP-dependent cholesterol efflux was diminished in all the mutants tested, except the apoA-I[delta(232-243)] which had normal cholesterol efflux. In cAMP-untreated or in mock-transfected cells, cholesterol efflux was not affected by the amino-terminal deletions, but decreased by 30-40% and 50-65% by the carboxyl-terminal and double deletions, respectively. After adenovirus-mediated gene transfer in apoA-I-deficient mice, wild-type apoA-I and apoA-I[delta(1-41)] formed spherical high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles, whereas apoA-I[delta(1-41)delta(185-243)] formed discoidal HDL. The findings suggest that although the central helices of apoA-I alone can promote ABCA1-mediated lipid efflux, residues 220-231 are necessary to allow functional interactions between the full-length apoA-I and ABCA1 that are required for lipid efflux and HDL biogenesis. 相似文献

The binding of apoA-I-containing ligands to the HDL receptor scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) was characterized using two different assays. The first employed conventional binding or competition assays with (125)I-labeled ligands. The second is a new nonradioactive ligand binding assay, in which the receptor-associated ligand is detected by quantitative immunoblotting ("immunoreceptor assay"). Using both methods, we observed that the K(d) value for spherical HDL (density = 1.1-1.13 g/ml) was approximately 16 microgram of protein/ml, while the values for discoidal reconstituted HDL (rHDL) containing proapoA-I or plasma apoA-I were substantially lower (approximately 0.4-5 microgram of protein/ml). We also observed reduced affinity and/or competition for spherical (125)I-HDL cell association by higher relative to lower density HDL and very poor competition by lipid-free apoA-I and pre-beta-1 HDL. Deletion of either 58 carboxyl-terminal or 59 amino-terminal residues from apoA-I, relative to full-length control apoA-I, resulted in little or no change in the affinity of corresponding rHDL particles. However, rHDL particles containing a double mutant lacking both terminal domains competed poorly with spherical (125)I-HDL for binding to SR-BI. These findings suggest an important role for apoA-I and its conformation/organization within particles in mediating HDL binding to SR-BI and indicate that the NH(2) and COOH termini of apoA-I directly or indirectly contribute independently to binding to SR-BI. 相似文献

The class B, type I scavenger receptor promotes the selective uptake of high density lipoprotein cholesterol ethers into caveolae 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

The uptake of cholesterol esters from high density lipoproteins (HDLs) is characterized by the initial movement of cholesterol esters into a reversible plasma membrane pool. Cholesterol esters are subsequently internalized to a nonreversible pool. Unlike the uptake of cholesterol from low density lipoproteins, cholesterol ester uptake from HDL does not involve the internalization and degradation of the particle and is therefore termed selective. The class B, type I scavenger receptor (SR-BI) has been identified as an HDL receptor and shown to mediate selective cholesterol ester uptake. SR-BI is localized to cholesterol- and sphingomyelin-rich microdomains called caveolae. Caveolae are directly involved in cholesterol trafficking. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that caveolae are acceptors for HDL-derived cholesterol ether (CE). Our studies demonstrate that in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing SR-BI, >80% of the plasma membrane associated CE is present in caveolae after 7.5 min of selective cholesterol ether uptake. We also show that excess, unlabeled HDL can extract the radiolabeled CE from caveolae, demonstrating that caveolae constitute a reversible plasma membrane pool of CE. Furthermore, 50% of the caveolae-associated CE can be chased into a nonreversible pool. We conclude that caveolae are acceptors for HDL-derived cholesterol ethers, and that caveolae constitute a reversible, plasma membrane pool of cholesterol ethers. 相似文献

The selective uptake of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester (CE) by the scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is well documented. However, the effect of altered HDL composition, such as occurs in hyperlipidemia, on this important process is not known. This study investigated the impact of variable CE and triglyceride (TG) content on selective uptake. CE selective uptake by Y1 and HepG2 cells was strongly affected by modification of either the CE or TG content of HDL. Importantly, TG, like CE, was selectively taken up by a dose-dependent, saturable process in these cells. As shown by ACTH up-regulation and receptor overexpression experiments, SR-BI mediated the selective uptake of both CE and TG. With in vitro modified HDLs of varying CE and TG composition, the selective uptake of CE and TG was dependent on the abundance of each lipid within the HDL particle. Furthermore, total selective uptake (CE + TG) remained constant, indicating that these lipids competed for cellular uptake. These data support a novel mechanism whereby SR-BI binds HDL and mediates the incorporation of a nonspecific portion of the HDL lipid core. In this way, TG directly affects the ability of HDL to donate CE to cells. Processes that raise the TG/CE ratio of HDL will impair the delivery of CE to cells via this receptor and may compromise the efficiency of sterol balancing pathways such as reverse cholesterol transport. 相似文献

The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates the efflux of cellular unesterified cholesterol and phospholipid to lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I. Chymase, a protease secreted by mast cells, selectively cleaves pre-beta-migrating particles from high density lipoprotein (HDL)(3) and reduces the efflux of cholesterol from macrophages. To evaluate whether this effect is the result of reduction of ABCA1-dependent or -independent pathways of cholesterol efflux, in this study we examined the efflux of cholesterol to preparations of chymase-treated HDL(3) in two types of cell: 1) in J774 murine macrophages endogenously expressing low levels of scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), and high levels of ABCA1 upon treatment with cAMP; and 2) in Fu5AH rat hepatoma cells endogenously expressing high levels of the SR-BI and low levels of ABCA1. Treatment of HDL(3) with the human chymase resulted in rapid depletion of pre-beta-HDL and a concomitant decrease in the efflux of cholesterol and phospholipid (2-fold and 3-fold, respectively) from the ABCA1-expressing J774 cells. In contrast, efflux of free cholesterol from Fu5AH to chymase-treated and to untreated HDL(3) was similar. Incubation of HDL(3) with phospholipid transfer protein led to an increase in pre-beta-HDL contents as well as in ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux. A decreased cholesterol efflux to untreated HDL(3) but not to chymase-treated HDL(3) was observed in ABCA1-expressing J774 with probucol, an inhibitor of cholesterol efflux to lipid-poor apoA-I. Similar results were obtained using brefeldin and gliburide, two inhibitors of ABCA1-mediated efflux. These results indicate that chymase treatment of HDL(3) specifically impairs the ABCA1-dependent pathway without influencing either aqueous or SR-BI-facilitated diffusion and that this effect is caused by depletion of lipid-poor pre-beta-migrating particles in HDL(3). Our results are compatible with the view that HDL(3) promotes ABCA1-mediated lipid efflux entirely through its lipid-poor fraction with pre-beta mobility. 相似文献

Scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), a CD36 superfamily member, is an oligomeric high density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor that mediates negatively cooperative HDL binding and selective lipid uptake. We identified in the N-terminal transmembrane (N-TM) domain of SR-BI a conserved glycine dimerization motif, G(15)X(2)G(18)X(3)AX(2)G(25), of which the submotif G(18)X(3)AX(2)G(25) significantly contributes to homodimerization and lipid uptake activity. SR-BI variants were generated by mutations (single or multiple Gly → Leu substitutions) or by replacing the N-TM domain with those from other CD36 superfamily members containing (croquemort) or lacking (lysosomal integral membrane protein (LIMP) II) this glycine motif (chimeras). None of the SR-BI variants exhibited altered surface expression (based on antibody binding) or HDL binding. However, the G15L/G18L/G25L triple mutant exhibited reductions in cell surface homo-oligomerization (>10-fold) and the rate of selective lipid uptake (~ 2-fold). Gly(18) and Gly(25) were necessary for normal lipid uptake activity of SR-BI and the SR-BI/croquemort chimera. The lipid uptake activity of the glycine motif-deficient SR-BI/LIMP II chimera was low but could be increased by introducing glycines at positions 18 and 25. The rate of lipid uptake mediated by SR-BI/LIMP II chimeras was proportional to the extent of receptor oligomerization. Thus, the glycine dimerization motif G(18)X(3)AX(2)G(25) in the N-TM domain of SR-BI contributes substantially to the homo-oligomerization and lipid transport activity of SR-BI but does not influence the negative cooperativity of HDL binding. Oligomerization-independent binding cooperativity suggests that classic allostery is not involved and that the negative cooperativity is probably the consequence of a "lattice effect" (interligand steric interference accompanying binding to adjacent receptors). 相似文献

High density lipoprotein (HDL) represents a mixture of particles containing either apoA-I and apoA-II (LpA-I/A-II) or apoA-I without apoA-II (LpA-I). Differences in the function and metabolism of LpA-I and LpA-I/A-II have been reported, and studies in transgenic mice have suggested that apoA-II is pro-atherogenic in contrast to anti-atherogenic apoA-I. The molecular basis for these observations is unclear. The scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) is an HDL receptor that plays a key role in HDL metabolism. In this study we investigated the abilities of apoA-I and apoA-II to mediate SR-BI-specific binding and selective uptake of cholesterol ester using reconstituted HDLs (rHDLs) that were homogeneous in size and apolipoprotein content. Particles were labeled in the protein (with (125)I) and in the lipid (with [(3)H]cholesterol ether) components and SR-BI-specific events were analyzed in SR-BI-transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells. At 1 microg/ml apolipoprotein, SR-BI-mediated cell association of palmitoyloleoylphosphatidylcholine-containing AI-rHDL was significantly greater (3-fold) than that of AI/AII-rHDL, with a lower K(d) and a higher B(max) for AI-rHDL as compared with AI/AII-rHDL. Unexpectedly, selective cholesterol ester uptake from AI/AII-rHDL was not compromised compared with AI-rHDL, despite decreased binding. The efficiency of selective cholesterol ester uptake in terms of SR-BI-associated rHDL was 4-5-fold greater for AI/AII-rHDL than AI-rHDL. These results are consistent with a two-step mechanism in which SR-BI binds ligand and then mediates selective cholesterol ester uptake with an efficiency dependent on the composition of the ligand. ApoA-II decreases binding but increases selective uptake. These findings show that apoA-II can exert a significant influence on selective cholesterol ester uptake by SR-BI and may consequently influence the metabolism and function of HDL, as well as the pathway of reverse cholesterol transport. 相似文献

Serum amyloid A is a ligand for scavenger receptor class B type I and inhibits high density lipoprotein binding and selective lipid uptake 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Serum amyloid A is an acute phase protein that is carried in the plasma largely as an apolipoprotein of high density lipoprotein (HDL). In this study we investigated whether SAA is a ligand for the HDL receptor, scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), and how SAA may influence SR-BI-mediated HDL binding and selective cholesteryl ester uptake. Studies using Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing SR-BI showed that (125)I-labeled SAA, both in lipid-free form and in reconstituted HDL particles, functions as a high affinity ligand for SR-BI. SAA also bound with high affinity to the hepatocyte cell line, HepG2. Alexa-labeled SAA was shown by fluorescence confocal microscopy to be internalized by cells in a SR-BI-dependent manner. To assess how SAA association with HDL influences HDL interaction with SR-BI, SAA-containing HDL was isolated from mice overexpressing SAA through adenoviral gene transfer. SAA presence on HDL had little effect on HDL binding to SR-BI but decreased (30-50%) selective cholesteryl ester uptake. Lipid-free SAA, unlike lipid-free apoA-I, was an effective inhibitor of both SR-BI-dependent binding and selective cholesteryl ester uptake of HDL. We have concluded that SR-BI plays a key role in SAA metabolism through its ability to interact with and internalize SAA and, further, that SAA influences HDL cholesterol metabolism through its inhibitory effects on SR-BI-mediated selective lipid uptake. 相似文献

Separation of lipid transport functions by mutations in the extracellular domain of scavenger receptor class B,type I 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI) shows a variety of effects on cellular cholesterol metabolism, including increased selective uptake of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester, stimulation of free cholesterol (FC) efflux from cells to HDL and phospholipid vesicles, and changes in the distribution of plasma membrane FC as evidenced by increased susceptibility to exogenous cholesterol oxidase. Previous studies showed that these multiple effects require the extracellular domain of SR-BI, but not the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. To test whether 1) the extracellular domain of SR-BI mediates multiple activities by virtue of discrete functional subdomains, or 2) the multiple activities are, in fact, secondary to and driven by changes in cholesterol flux, the extracellular domain of SR-BI was subjected to insertional mutagenesis by strategically placing an epitope tag into nine sites. These experiments identified four classes of mutants with disruptions at different levels of function. Class 4 mutants showed a clear separation of function between HDL binding, HDL cholesteryl ester uptake, and HDL-dependent FC efflux on one hand and FC efflux to small unilamellar vesicles and an increased cholesterol oxidase-sensitive pool of membrane FC on the other. Selective disruption of the latter two functions provides evidence for multiple functional subdomains in the extracellular receptor domain. Furthermore, these findings uncover a difference in the SR-BI-mediated efflux pathways for FC transfer to HDL acceptors versus phospholipid vesicles. The loss of the cholesterol oxidase-sensitive FC pool and FC efflux to small unilamellar vesicle acceptors in Class 4 mutants suggests that these activities may be mechanistically related. 相似文献

Phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) is a liver-specific enzyme that converts phosphatidylethanolamine to phosphatidylcholine (PC). Mice that lack PEMT have reduced plasma levels of PC and cholesterol in high density lipoproteins (HDL). We have investigated the mechanism responsible for this reduction with experiments designed to distinguish between a decreased formation of HDL particles by hepatocytes or an increased hepatic uptake of HDL lipids. Therefore, we analyzed lipid efflux to apoA-I and HDL lipid uptake using primary cultured hepatocytes isolated from Pemt(+/+) and Pemt(-/-) mice. Hepatic levels of the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 are not significantly different between Pemt genotypes. Moreover, hepatocytes isolated from Pemt(-/-) mice released cholesterol and PC into the medium as efficiently as did hepatocytes from Pemt(+/+) mice. Immunoblotting of liver homogenates showed a 1.5-fold increase in the amount of the scavenger receptor, class B, type 1 (SR-BI) in Pemt(-/-) compared with Pemt(+/+) livers. In addition, there was a 1.5-fold increase in the SR-BI-interacting protein PDZK1. Lipid uptake experiments using radiolabeled HDL particles revealed a greater uptake of [(3)H]cholesteryl ethers and [(3)H]PC by hepatocytes derived from Pemt(-/-) compared with Pemt(+/+) mice. Furthermore, we observed an increased association of [(3)H]cholesteryl ethers in livers of Pemt(-/-) compared with Pemt(+/+) mice after tail vein injection of [(3)H]HDL. These results strongly suggest that PEMT is involved in the regulation of plasma HDL levels in mice, mainly via HDL lipid uptake by SR-BI. 相似文献

Recent studies have indicated that the scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) may play an important role in the uptake of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester in liver and steroidogenic tissues. To investigate the in vivo effects of liver-specific SR-BI overexpression on lipid metabolism, we created several lines of SR-BI transgenic mice with an SR-BI genomic construct where the SR-BI promoter region had been replaced by the apolipoprotein (apo)A-I promoter. The effect of constitutively increased SR-BI expression on plasma HDL and non-HDL lipoproteins and apolipoproteins was characterized. There was an inverse correlation between SR-BI expression and apoA-I and HDL cholesterol levels in transgenic mice fed either mouse chow or a diet high in fat and cholesterol. An unexpected finding in the SR-BI transgenic mice was the dramatic impact of the SR-BI transgene on non-HDL cholesterol and apoB whose levels were also inversely correlated with SR-BI expression. Consistent with the decrease in plasma HDL and non-HDL cholesterol was an accelerated clearance of HDL, non-HDL, and their major associated apolipoproteins in the transgenics compared with control animals. These in vivo studies of the effect of SR-BI overexpression on plasma lipoproteins support the previously proposed hypothesis that SR-BI accelerates the metabolism of HDL and also highlight the capacity of this receptor to participate in the metabolism of non-HDL lipoproteins. 相似文献

Hepatic scavenger receptor BI promotes rapid clearance of high density lipoprotein free cholesterol and its transport into bile 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The clearance of free cholesterol from plasma lipoproteins by tissues is of major quantitative importance, but it is not known whether this is passive or receptor-mediated. Based on our finding that scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) promotes free cholesterol (FC) exchange between high density lipoprotein (HDL) and cells, we tested whether SR-BI would effect FC movement in vivo using [(14)C]FC- and [(3)H]cholesteryl ester (CE)-labeled HDL in mice with increased (SR-BI transgenic (Tg)) or decreased (SR-BI attenuated (att)) hepatic SR-BI expression. The initial clearance of HDL FC was increased in SR-BI Tg mice by 72% and decreased in SR-BI att mice by 53%, but was unchanged in apoA-I knockout mice compared with wild-type mice. Transfer of FC to non-HDL and esterification of FC were minor and could not explain differences. The hepatic uptake of FC was increased in SR-BI Tg mice by 34% and decreased in SR-BI att mice by 22%. CE clearance and uptake gave similar results, but with much slower rates. The uptake of HDL FC and CE by SR-BI Tg primary hepatocytes was increased by 2.2- and 2.6-fold (1-h incubation), respectively, compared with control hepatocytes. In SR-BI Tg mice, the initial biliary secretion of [(14)C]FC was markedly increased, whereas increased [(3)H]FC appeared after a slight delay. Thus, in the mouse, a major portion of the clearance of HDL FC from plasma is mediated by SR-BI. 相似文献

High density lipoprotein (HDL) levels are inversely proportional to the risk of coronary heart disease. HDL mediates various anti-atherogenic pathways including reverse cholesterol transport from cells of the arterial wall to the liver and steroidogenic tissues. In addition HDL activates various intracellular signaling events that confer atheroprotection. The HDL receptor, scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) has been implicated directly and indirectly in HDL induced signaling. The aim of this review is to summarize the role of SR-BI in HDL induced signaling in the vasculature. 相似文献

Scavenger receptor (SR)-BI catalyzes the selective uptake of cholesteryl ester (CE) from high density lipoprotein (HDL) by a two-step process that involves the following: 1) binding of HDL to the receptor and 2) diffusion of the CE molecules into the cell plasma membrane. We examined the effects of the size of discoidal HDL particles containing wild-type (WT) apoA-I on selective uptake of CE and efflux of cellular free (unesterified) cholesterol (FC) from COS-7 cells expressing SR-BI to determine the following: 1) the influence of apoA-I conformation on the lipid transfer process, and 2) the contribution of receptor binding-dependent processes to the overall efflux of cellular FC. Large (10 nm diameter) reconstituted HDL bound to SR-BI better (B(max) approximately 420 versus 220 ng of apoA-I/mg cell protein), delivered more CE, and promoted more FC efflux than small ( approximately 8 nm) particles. When normalized to the number of reconstituted HDL particles bound to the receptor, the efficiencies of either CE uptake or FC efflux with these particles were the same indicating that altering the conformation of WT apoA-I modulates binding to the receptor (step 1) but does not change the efficiency of the subsequent lipid transfer (step 2); this implies that binding induces an optimal alignment of the WT apoA-I.SR-BI complex so that the efficiency of lipid transfer is always the same. FC efflux to HDL is affected both by binding of HDL to SR-BI and by the ability of the receptor to perturb the packing of FC molecules in the cell plasma membrane. 相似文献

The murine class B, type I scavenger receptor (mSR-BI) is a receptor for both high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) and mediates selective, rather than endocytic, uptake of lipoprotein lipid. We have developed a "retrovirus library-based activity dissection" method to generate mSR-BI mutants in which some, but not all, of the activities of this multifunctional protein have been disrupted. This method employs three techniques: 1) efficient in vitro cDNA mutagenesis (here error-prone PCR was used), 2) efficient retroviral delivery and high expression of single mutant cDNAs into individual cells, and 3) isolation of infected cells expressing the desired mutant phenotype using high sensitivity positive/negative screening by two-color fluorescence-activated cell sorting. A set of mutants, all having arginine substitutions at two common sites (positions 402 or 401 and position 418), were isolated and characterized. Mutation at either site alone did not generate as strong a mutant phenotype (loss of DiI uptake from DiI-HDL) as did the double mutations. "Activity-dissected" double mutants were as effective as wild-type mSR-BI in functioning as LDL receptors, mediating high affinity LDL binding and uptake of metabolically active cholesterol from LDL, but they lost most of their corresponding HDL receptor activity. Thus, these mutants provide support for the proposal that the interaction of SR-BI with HDL differs from that with LDL. Examination of the in vivo function of such mutants may provide insights into the differential roles of the LDL and HDL receptor activities of SR-BI in normal lipoprotein metabolism and in SR-BI's ability to protect against atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Cholesterol elimination from the body involves reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral tissues in which the elimination of high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol by the liver and subsequent biliary excretion as free cholesterol and bile acids are important. In situations of peripheral fat and cholesterol accumulation, such as obesity, these pathways may be overloaded, contributing to increased cholesterol deposition. Leptin has an important role in obesity, suppressing food intake and increasing energy expenditure. This hormone, which is absent in genetically obese ob/ob mice, is also thought to be involved in the coordination of lipid excretion pathways, although available data are somewhat inconsistent. We therefore studied the expression of the hepatic HDL receptor, scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), and the LDL receptor as well as the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid synthesis, cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (Cyp7a1), in leptin-deficient ob/ob mice and their wild-type controls. In ob/ob mice, protein levels of both LDL receptor and SR-BI were reduced, whereas LDL receptor mRNA levels were increased and those of SR-BI were reduced, regardless of challenge with a 2% cholesterol diet. In ob/ob mice, the enzymatic activity and mRNA for Cyp7a1 were reduced, and the increase in response to dietary cholesterol was blunted. Upon short-term (2 days) treatment with leptin, a dose-dependent increase was seen in the SR-BI protein and mRNA, whereas the Cyp7a1 protein and mRNA were reduced. Our findings indicate that leptin is an important regulator of hepatic SR-BI expression and, thus, HDL cholesterol levels, whereas it does not stimulate Cyp7a1 and bile acid synthesis. 相似文献
