The severe depletion of cholesteryl ester (CE) in adrenocortical cells of apoA-I(-/-) mice suggests that apolipoprotein (apo) A-I plays an important role in the high density lipoprotein (HDL) CE selective uptake process mediated by scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) in vivo. A recent study showed that apoA-I(-/-) HDL binds to SR-BI with the same affinity as apoA-I(+/+) HDL, but apoA-I(-/-) HDL has a decreased V(max) for CE transfer from the HDL particle to adrenal cells. The present study was designed to determine the basis for the reduced selective uptake of CE from apoA-I(-/-) HDL. Variations in apoA-I(-/-) HDL particle diameter, free cholesterol or phospholipid content, or the apoE or apoA-II content of apoA-I(-/-) HDL had little effect on HDL CE selective uptake into Y1-BS1 adrenal cells. Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase treatment alone or addition of apoA-I to apoA-I(-/-) HDL alone also had little effect. However, addition of apoA-I to apoA-I(-/-) HDL in the presence of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase reorganized the large heterogeneous apoA-I(-/-) HDL to a more discrete particle with enhanced CE selective uptake activity. These results show a unique role for apoA-I in HDL CE selective uptake that is distinct from its role as a ligand for HDL binding to SR-BI. These data suggest that the conformation of apoA-I at the HDL surface is important for the efficient transfer of CE to the cell.

D007862 Phosphatidylcholine-Sterol O-Acyltransferase An enzyme secreted from the liver into the plasma of many mammalian species. It catalyzes the esterification of the hydroxyl group of lipoprotein cholesterol by the transfer of a fatty acid from the C-2 position of lecithin. In familial lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency disease, the absence of the enzyme results in an excess of unesterified cholesterol in plasma.

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.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001692 Biological Transport The movement of materials (including biochemical substances and drugs) through a biological system at the cellular level. The transport can be across cell membranes and epithelial layers. It also can occur within intracellular compartments and extracellular compartments.

D016632 Apolipoprotein A-I The most abundant protein component of HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS or HDL. This protein serves as an acceptor for CHOLESTEROL released from cells thus promoting efflux of cholesterol to HDL then to the LIVER for excretion from the body (reverse cholesterol transport). It also acts as a cofactor for LECITHIN CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE that forms CHOLESTEROL ESTERS on the HDL particles. Mutations of this gene APOA1 cause HDL deficiency, such as in FAMILIAL ALPHA LIPOPROTEIN DEFICIENCY DISEASE and in some patients with TANGIER DISEASE.
