It has been proposed that clearance of
cholesterol-enriched very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles
occurs through a multistep process beginning with their initial binding
to cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG), followed by their
uptake into cells by a receptor-mediated process that utilizes members of the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family, including the
low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP). We have further
explored the relationship between HSPG binding of VLDL and its
subsequent internalization by focusing on the LRP pathway using a cell
line deficient in LDLR. In this study, we show that LRP and HSPG are
part of a co-immunoprecipitable complex at the cell surface
demonstrating a novel association for these two cell surface receptors.
Cell surface binding assays show that this complex can be disrupted by
an LRP-specific ligand binding antagonist, which in turn leads to
increased VLDL binding and degradation. The increase in VLDL binding
results from an increase in the availability of HSPG sites as treatment
with heparinase or competitors of glycosaminoglycan chain addition
eliminated the augmented binding. From these results we propose a model
whereby LRP regulates the availability of VLDL binding sites at the
cell surface by complexing with HSPG. Once HSPG dissociates from LRP, it is then able to bind and internalize VLDL independent of LRP endocytic activity. We conclude that HSPG and LRP together participate in VLDL clearance by means of a synergistic relationship.
