Metabolism of high density lipoprotein subfractions

Abstract: Over the past few years, new experimental approaches have reinforced the awareness among investigators that the heterogeneity of HDL particles indicates significant differences in production and catabolism of HDL particles. Recent kinetic studies have suggested that small HDL, containing two apolipoprotein A-I molecules per particle, are converted in a unidirectional manner to medium HDL or large HDL, containing three or four apolipoprotein A-I molecules per particle, respectively. Conversion appears to occur … Show more

“…The remodeling of pre␤ LpA-I to medium HDLs does not require LCAT or ABCA1 but may be enhanced by these proteins. Finally, in hA-I Tg mice as well as in previous studies of nonhuman primates (25,26,47), there was no evi- Fig. 7.…”

“…Given the propensity for SR-BI-generated HDL remnants to rapidly remodel to form larger particles, it seems unlikely that small remnants ever accumulate to detectable levels in normal HDL metabolism. In kinetic studies in nonhuman primates using HDL particles isolated by immunoaffinity and gel filtration, Colvin and Parks noted that apoA-I on large HDL particles cleared from the plasma without appearing on smaller HDL subfractions (29,30). Although this suggests that apoA-I on large HDL particles is not recycled through small HDL intermediates, our data shows that apoA-I can indeed rapidly cycle between particles of different sizes.…”

“…In general, lipoprotein A-I is considered to be more protective against CHD than lipoprotein A-I:A-II. 33 Therefore, apoA-I levels may be a better marker for functional reverse cholesterol transport than HDL-C.…”
