Abstract: | The presence of hypochlorite-modified lipoproteins in atherosclerotic lesions suggests that HOCl, a naturally occurring oxidant formed by the myeloperoxidase-catalyzed reaction of H2O2 and Cl-, is a candidate for generation of modified lipoproteins in vivo. We have previously demonstrated that Cu(2+)-oxidized LDL inhibits platelet plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA) in isolated membranes and causes an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ in resting whole platelets. However, Cu(2+)-oxidized LDL may not be identical in structure and function to the physiologically modified lipoprotein. Since platelet function may be affected by native and modified lipoproteins, the effect of HOCl-modified LDL and HDL3 on platelet PMCA and on the free intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) of whole platelets has been investigated. We demonstrate that in contrast to Cu(2+)-oxidized LDL, HOCl-modified LDL and HDL3 stimulate platelet PMCA activity in isolated membranes and that this effect results in a decrease of [Ca2+]i in vivo. Thus, HOCl-oxidation produces modified lipoproteins with the potential for altering platelet function and with properties different from those of the Cu(2+)-oxidized counterparts. |
