Cholesterol-Overloaded HDL Particles Are Independently Associated With Progression of Carotid Atherosclerosis in a Cardiovascular Disease-Free Population

Abstract: Our findings suggest that cholesterol-overloaded HDL particles are independently associated with the progression of carotid atherosclerosis. This may explain why in recent trials raising HDL cholesterol was not beneficial. This study strongly suggests that the combination of cholesterol content and particle number determines the antiatherogenic function of HDLs, rather than either parameter alone.

“…This original observation will prompt new survey studies in larger all-gender prospective cohorts in order to evaluate the value added by IF1 over existing predictors and to assess its usefulness in routine clinical practice. As compared to other emerging HDL-related biomarkers that have been also proven to be better than HDL-C level, such as HDL-P and subclasses measured by NMR [40, 41] or cholesterol efflux capacity measured by cellular assays [42], measurement of IF1 by immunoassay is technically more feasible in terms of analytical requirements, accessibility, turnaround time, and traceability. In the future, IF1 measurement could be clinically useful for better prognosis in populations at high risk or in the setting of pharmacotherapy.…”

“…Currently, it is not clear whether the action of HDL in mediating reverse cholesterol transport is best represented by HDL cholesterol concentration, particle number, size, or some estimate of both (49). Recently, Qi et al (50) suggested that the ratio of HDL cholesterol to HDL particle number is a better predictor of HDL function than either index alone. In a human cohort FIGURE 4 Serum lipoprotein response in pups from dams supplemented with CH or CH/PS during gestation/lactation.…”

“…This suggests that cholesterol-overloaded HDL particles may have impaired atheroprotective properties and therefore that HDL subclasses differing in size or density may have differential associations with clinical outcomes. 7,11 …”
