Abstract:
In order to study the factors responsible for the formation of high-density lipoprotein subfraction-2 (HDL-2), very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and HDL-3 were mixed and incubated with purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase, human serum lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, cholesteryl ester transfer protein and mixtures thereof. The results can be summarized as follows: Incubation of HDL-3 and VLDL for 24 h at 37 degrees C without enzymes did not cause any significant change in the protein:lipid ratio or in the flotation constant of the HDL. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein treatment caused only an exchange of part of the HDL cholesteryl esters with VLDL triacylglycerols. Lipoprotein lipase caused a slight shift of HDL-hydrated density to lower values; HDL-2b, however, was not formed. Incubation of HDL-3 and VLDL with lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase or mixtures of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase and lipoprotein lipase reduced the HDL-protein:lipid ratio and increased the HDL-flotation rate. The newly formed HDL resembled that of native HDL-2a. The incubation of HDL-3 and VLDL with lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase and cholesteryl ester transfer protein caused a shift of the HDL-3 into an HDL-2b-like fraction. Particles resembling HDL-2b in the analytical ultracentrifuge were also formed if VLDL + HDL-3 were incubated with lipoprotein lipase or lipoprotein lipase + cholesteryl ester transfer protein in a medium containing low amounts of albumin, insufficient for binding all liberated fatty acids during hydrolysis. The incubation of mixtures of HDL-3 and chylomicrons enriched with apoAI in the presence of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase and cholesteryl ester transfer protein caused the formation of HDL-2-like particles which resembled those of native HDL-2 also with respect to the apoAI/AII ratio.
