Regulation of endoplasmic reticulum cholesterol by plasma membrane cholesterol.
The abundance of cell cholesterol is governed by multiple regulatory proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) which, in turn, are under the control of the cholesterol in that organelle. But how does ER cholesterol reflect cell (mostly plasma membrane) cholesterol? We have systematically quantitated this relationship for the first time. We found that ER cholesterol in resting human fibroblasts...
متن کاملCholesterol movement from plasma membrane to rough endoplasmic reticulum. Inhibition by progesterone.
The effect of progesterone on the movement of sterols from the cell surface to the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was examined in rat hepatoma cells. Plasma membranes were labeled exogenously with [3H]cholesterol or [3H]zymosterol. Translocation of the labeled sterols to the rough ER was inferred from their conversion to [3H]cholesteryl esters and [3H]cholesterol, respectively. Progesterone i...
متن کاملContinuous transport of a small fraction of plasma membrane cholesterol to endoplasmic reticulum regulates total cellular cholesterol
Cells employ regulated transport mechanisms to ensure that their plasma membranes (PMs) are optimally supplied with cholesterol derived from uptake of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and synthesis. To date, all inhibitors of cholesterol transport block steps in lysosomes, limiting our understanding of post-lysosomal transport steps. Here, we establish the cholesterol-binding domain 4 of anthroly...
متن کاملTransport of cholesterol from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane
We have studied the transport of newly synthesized cholesterol from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane in Chinese hamster ovary cells using a cell fractionation assay. We found that transport is dependent on metabolic energy, but that the maintenance of the high differential concentration of cholesterol in the plasma membrane is not an energy-requiring process. We have tested a va...
متن کاملApolipoproteins, membrane cholesterol domains, and the regulation of cholesterol efflux.
Published data related to both cell membrane biology and apolipoprotein structure are reviewed and used to formulate a new model describing the mechanisms of cholesterol efflux from cell plasma membrane to high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. The central premise of this model is the existence of heterogenous domains of cholesterol within plasma membranes. We propose that cholesterol efflux...
