Reduced Apolipoprotein Glycosylation in Patients with the Metabolic Syndrome

Abstract: ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to compare the apolipoprotein composition of the three major lipoprotein classes in patients with metabolic syndrome to healthy controls.MethodsVery low density (VLDL), intermediate/low density (IDL/LDL, hereafter LDL), and high density lipoproteins (HDL) fractions were isolated from plasma of 56 metabolic syndrome subjects and from 14 age-sex matched healthy volunteers. The apolipoprotein content of fractions was analyzed by one-dimensional (1D) gel electrophoresis with … Show more

“…In previous work, we reported an association of apoC-III 0 and apoC-III 1 , but not apoC-III 2 with fasting plasma triglyceride (TG) levels in a group of obese youth with high TG levels (15), and in the setting of type 2 diabetes(18). Decreased apoC-III 2 to apoC-III 1 ratio was also observed in adults with metabolic syndrome (19). The apoC-III 2 to apoC-III 1 ratio was reduced following weight loss by caloric restriction (20), or bariatric surgery (21).…”

“…Another group has reported a similar finding. In HDL from patients with MetS both the amount of ApoC-III and SAA, and the glycosylation of ApoC-III, were altered compared to healthy controls23. Thus, it is becoming increasingly apparent that there is differential expression of the HDL glycoproteome in health and disease; however, little is known about how glycan alterations affect HDL function.…”

“…Known risk factors for VTE, ie, factor V Leiden and prothrombin nt G20210A, were not associated with SAA4 levels. Since SAA4 is carried by lipoproteins, [17][18][19] the association of SAA4 levels with lipoprotein particle levels, that is, with factors that may reflect metabolism of lipoproteins (hormone use and obesity) was analyzed (Table 3). Among them, HDL particles levels were correlated with SAA4.…”

“…Constitutive SAA4, where “constitutive” denotes its level is not subject to remarkable alterations, is linked to a certain group of HDL particles (HDL 3 ) . More recent studies have identified a minor portion of SAA4 that is in the LDL and VLDL subfractions . SAA4 comprises >90% of the total serum SAA proteins in the absence of inflammatory pathologies with a serum concentration of 42 to 86 µg/mL, which is high in comparison with basal acute‐phase SAA (SAA1 plus SAA2) levels (average, 1‐2 µg/mL) .…”
