Differential Interaction of the Human Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein with Plasma High Density Lipoproteins (HDLs) from Humans, Control Mice, and Transgenic Mice to Human HDL Apolipoproteins

Plasma high density lipoproteins (HDLs) from humans, from transgenic mice to human apolipoprotein A-I (HuAITg mice), from transgenic mice to human apolipoprotein A-II (HuAIITg mice), from transgenic mice to human apolipoproteins A-I and A-II (HuAIAIITg mice), and from C57BL/6 control mice were isolated, and their ability to interact with the human cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) was studied. Whereas cholesteryl ester transfer rates were gradually enhanced by the addition of moderate amounts of HDL from the different sources, striking differences appeared when HDL levels kept increasing beyond a maximal transfer value. Indeed, while a plateau value corresponding to maximal CETP activity was maintained when raising the concentration of HuAITg HDL and HuAIAIITg HDL, inhibitions could be observed with the highest levels of human, control mouse, and HuAIITg mouse HDL. The concentration-dependent inhibition of CETP activity could be reproduced by the addition of delipidated HDL apolipoproteins from control mice, but it was abolished by a 1-h preheating treatment at 56 °C. In contrast, no significant inhibition of CETP activity was observed with the delipidated protein moiety of HuAITg HDL, and cholesteryl ester transfer rates remained unchanged before and after a 1-h, 56 °C preheating step. Finally, the CETP-mediated transfer of radiolabeled cholesteryl esters from human low density lipoprotein to human HDL was significantly higher in the presence of lipoprotein-deficient plasma from HuAITg mice than in the presence of lipoprotein-deficient plasma from control mice. Interestingly, cholesteryl ester transfer rates measured with both control and HuAITg lipoprotein-deficient plasmas became remarkably similar following a 1-h, 56 °C preheating treatment.

It is concluded that human, control mouse, and HuAIITg mouse HDL contain a heat-labile lipid transfer inhibitory activity that is absent from HDL of HuAITg and HuAIAIITg mice. Alterations in CETP-lipoprotein binding did not account for differential lipid transfer inhibitory activities.
