Formation of high density lipoprotein2-like particles during lipolysis of very low density lipoproteins in vitro.

چکیده
The effects of lipolysis of human plasma very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) on the structure and composition of high density lipoproteins (HDL) have been investigated. Lipolysis was performed in a controlled system in vitro containing VLDL (d less than 1.006 g/ml) and HDL3 (d = 1.125-1.210 g/ml) from human plasma and lipoprotein lipase (EC 3.1.1.34) purified from bovine milk. Lipolysis of VLDL caused profound changes in HDL3. Protein, phospholipid, and cholesterol liberated from VLDL during its lipolysis were transferred to the HDL3 particles. As a consequence of this in vitro transfer, the chemical composition and biophysical properties of HDL3 were substantially altered. The newly formed particles exhibited a flotation rate (F01.20) of 6.7 and a hydrated density of 1.110 g/ml. The chemical composition closely resembled that of native HDL2, and their size was slightly larger than that of the precursor HDL3. When HDL3 and postlipolysis HDL2 were subjected to ultracentrifugation under flotation velocity and equilibrium conditions, both proved to be stable particles. These results, when extrapolated to in vivo conditions, suggest an important metabolic relationship between the levels of circulating VLDL and HDL2 in plasma. This relationship now permits a reasonable explanation for numerous in vivo observations in which the levels of VLDL and HDL2 change reciprocally.

Interactions of high density lipoproteins with very low and low density lipoproteins during lipolysis.
Interactions of high density lipoproteins (HDL) with very low (VLDL) and low (LDL) density lipoproteins were investigated during in vitro lipolysis in the presence of limited free fatty acid acceptor. Previous studies had shown that lipid products accumulating on lipoproteins under these conditions promote the formation of physical complexes between apolipoprotein B-containing particles (Biochi...
متن کاملThe role of different albumin preparations on production of human plasma lipoprotein-like particles in vitro.
Because we found apoprotein contamination of some high-grade commercial albumins, we studied this effect on formation of lipoprotein-like particles during lipolysis of human very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) in vitro. After a 1-hr incubation with purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase, over 98% VLDL triglyceride was hydrolyzed in the presence of either albumin B (apoprotein-rich) or albumin ...
متن کاملThe formation of LDL: mechanisms and regulation.
Low density lipoproteins (LDL) in blood plasma and their immediate precursors are generally thought to be the major atherogenic lipoproteins. The initial indications that LDL are formed from very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were obtained more than 25 years ago (1, 2), yet even today the precise mechanism of LDL formation from VLDL is unknown. During the last 15 years the processes of interc...

متن کاملVery low density lipoprotein. Removal of Apolipoproteins C-II and C-III-1 during lipolysis in vitro.
In this study we have investigated the effects of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) lipolysis on the removal of radiolabeled apolipoprotein C-II and apolipoprotein C-III-1 from in vitro lipolyzed lipoproteins. Lipolysis was carried out in vitro using lipoprotein lipase purified from bovine milk, and mixtures with or without plasma. Lipoproteins were isolated by ultracentrifugation and by gel ...
