Oxidized low‐density lipoprotein is chemotactic for arterial smooth muscle cells in culture

Abstract: The effects of human native and Cuz+-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were tested on the migration of cultured bovine aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in blind-well chambers. LDL oxidation was controlled by measuring the formation of conjugated dienes and lipid hydroperoxides, and by agarose gel electrophoresis. Oxidized LDL stimulated SMC migration, and the effect was dose-dependent up to 200 ,ug/ml. The stimulation was chemotactic in nature. Native LDL was without significant activity. The results sug… Show more

“…This order of activity is consistent with that seen for chemoattraction of human monocytes (46). It is noteworthy that the same lipids that stimulate movement of monocytes, T-lymphocytes, and smooth muscle cells (23), inhibit movement of EC. In contrast, Kume et al (40) have shown that the induction of EC adhesion molecules by lysoPE (and lysoPC) is significantly higher than by lysoPI (and lysoPS).…”

“…Metal ion-oxidized LDL is characterized by altered chemical and physical properties including elevated levels of cholesterol, a diverse array of oxidized sterols and fatty acids, lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC), degradation fragments of apo B-100, and increased flotation density and electrophoretic mobility (19). In addition to inducing foam cell formation in cultured macrophages (20), oxidized LDL has multiple properties that may contribute to the atherogenic process, e.g., it is chemotactic for blood monocytes (21), T-lymphocytes (22), and smooth muscle cells (23), and is cytotoxic to cultured cells including SMC (24) (see references 25 and 26 for reviews). Furthermore, recent biochemical and immunological studies indicate that oxidized LDL is present in atherosclerotic lesions (25), and may in fact be present in plasma (27).…”

“…Ox-LDL has been shown to be chemotactic for arterial smooth muscle cells in culture, whereas N-LDL is without significant activity. 10 It has been demonstrated that peroxidation of LDL is dependent on low concentrations of copper or iron and, in consequence, is inhibited by EDTA or antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene and vitamin E. 11 -13 To date, the mechanisms for the increased atherogenic potential induced by oxidation are unclear.…”
