Caveolin-1 is a principal structural component of caveolae membranes. These membrane microdomains participate in the regulation of signaling, transcytosis, and cholesterol homeostasis at the plasma membrane. In the present study, we determined the effect of caveolin-1 expression on cellular cholesterol efflux mediated by high-density lipoprotein (HDL). We evaluated this effect in parental NIH/3T3 cells as well as in two transformed NIH/3T3 cell lines in which caveolin-1 protein levels are dramatically downregulated. Compared with parental NIH/3T3 cells, these two transformed cell lines effluxed cholesterol more rapidly to HDL. In addition, NIH/3T3 cells harboring caveolin-1 antisense also effluxed cholesterol more rapidly to HDL. However, this effect was not due to changes in total cellular cholesterol content. We further showed that chronic HDL exposure reduced caveolin-1 protein expression in NIH/3T3 cells. HDL exposure also inhibited caveolin-1 promoter activity, suggesting a direct negative effect of HDL on caveolin-1 gene transcription. Moreover, we showed that HDL-induced downregulation of caveolin-1 prevents the uptake of oxidized low-density lipoprotein in human endothelial cells. These data suggest a novel proatherogenic role for caveolin-1, i.e., regarding the uptake and/or transcytosis of modified lipoproteins.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008075 Lipoproteins, HDL A class of lipoproteins of small size (4-13 nm) and dense (greater than 1.063 g/ml) particles. HDL lipoproteins, synthesized in the liver without a lipid core, accumulate cholesterol esters from peripheral tissues and transport them to the liver for re-utilization or elimination from the body (the reverse cholesterol transport). Their major protein component is APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I. HDL also shuttle APOLIPOPROTEINS C and APOLIPOPROTEINS E to and from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during their catabolism. HDL plasma level has been inversely correlated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

D011905 Genes, ras Family of retrovirus-associated DNA sequences (ras) originally isolated from Harvey (H-ras, Ha-ras, rasH) and Kirsten (K-ras, Ki-ras, rasK) murine sarcoma viruses. Ras genes are widely conserved among animal species and sequences corresponding to both H-ras and K-ras genes have been detected in human, avian, murine, and non-vertebrate genomes. The closely related N-ras gene has been detected in human neuroblastoma and sarcoma cell lines. All genes of the family have a similar exon-intron structure and each encodes a p21 protein.
