Key Words: HDL hepatic lipase insulin resistance hypertriglyceridemia
| Introduction |

|
|---|
Low HDL is a characteristic feature of insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia,4 which is mainly attributable to enhanced clearance but not decreased production of HDL particles.5 The precise mechanisms underlying enhanced HDL catabolism are not clear. Intravascular remodeling of HDL by lipid transfer factors, lipases, and non-HDL lipoproteins plays a critical role in HDL metabolism.6 In insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia, HDL particles are enriched with triglycerides (TGs) by enhanced lipid exchange with the increased number and size of TG-rich lipoproteins, a process mediated by cholesteryl ester transfer protein.7 Increased hepatic lipase (HL) activity accompanies TG enrichment of HDL particles in these states.8 HL hydrolysis of TG-rich HDL induces the formation of pre–β1-HDL, leaving a residual
-migrating HDL particle referred to as remnant HDL.9,10 Remnant HDL particles have compositional and conformational features that are distinct from TG-rich HDL, and many of these features may affect their affinity and binding to cell surface binding sites.11,12 Shedding and rapid renal filtration and degradation of lipid-poor or lipid-free apoA-I that results from the HDL lipolysis may contribute to low HDL-c. We have previously demonstrated that TG enrichment in combination with HL lipolysis of HDL enhances HDL catabolism in vivo.13–16 The liver, kidney, and steroidogenic tissues are major sites of HDL catabolism.17,18 The liver has been recognized as the major site for selective HDL lipid uptake mainly mediated through scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) in the process of reverse cholesterol transport.19,20 The kidney is the principal tissue for the uptake of apoA-I,21,22 possibly through filtration at the glomerulus and catabolism by the renal tubular cells via the cubilin/megalin receptor complex.23,24 For these reasons, we chose to study the binding of HDL to human liver and kidney cell lines in the present study.
Clearance of HDL may be through receptor-mediated or nonreceptor-mediated pathways. Cholesteryl ester may be transferred to circulating apoB-containing lipoproteins and then delivered to the liver25 or may be selectively removed from the particle by the liver or extrahepatic tissues without catabolism of the whole particle.19 Alternatively, HDL may be removed by endocytic uptake and degradation of the whole particle, a process referred to as holoparticle uptake.6 Holoparticle HDL and apoA-I uptake and degradation are known to occur in both liver and kidney.17,21 A number of receptors have been identified that participate in either selective cholesteryl ester uptake or holoparticle uptake by tissues.26 SR-BI exhibits high-affinity binding to HDL and plays a major role in HDL selective lipid uptake.19,20 Other plasma membrane proteins such as cubilin,27 LDL receptor–related protein,28 HDL-binding proteins 1 and 2,29 HDL binding protein,30 apoA-I binding protein,31 and ectopic β-chain of ATP synthase32 have also been proposed as physiologically relevant HDL receptors, although their roles in HDL catabolism in vivo have not been fully elucidated.
We hypothesized that the more rapid HDL clearance from the circulation in insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia is associated with enhanced cellular uptake of HDL particles that are modified by TG enrichment and increased HL lipolysis. We prepared 3 species of HDL, ie, unmodified HDL, HDL enriched with TG from very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) ex vivo and TG-enriched HDL hydrolyzed by HL, and we examined their binding, internalization, and degradation in human liver and kidney cell lines. We further examined the potential roles of several factors in mediating their binding properties. We elected to use whole HDL, rather than 1 specific HDL subfraction (such as HDL2), firstly to exactly mimic the conditions of our previous in vivo studies13,14 to relate the present in vitro findings to our previous in vivo observations and, secondly, to more closely mimic the real life situation in humans, in whom the HDL lipoprotein fraction is heterogeneous with respect to size, density, and composition.

Cells
HepG2 (human hepatoma) and HEK293 (human embryonic kidney) cells were from the American Tissue Culture Collection and cultured in
-minimal essential medium and DMEM, respectively, both supplemented with 10% FBS. CHO cells and ldlA7 cells were maintained in Hams/F12 supplemented with 5% FBS and 2 mmol/L L-glutamine. ldlA7 cells with stable transfection of human SR-BI (ldlA[hSR-BI]) were selected and maintained in medium containing 400 µg/mL Geneticin (Invitrogen, Burlington, Ontario, Canada). One day before binding assays, CHO, ldlA7, and ldlA[hSR-BI] cells were washed and refed with medium containing 3% newborn calf lipoprotein-deficient serum.
Preparation and Analysis of HDL
Human fasting plasma was incubated with VLDL (final TG
5 mmol/L) at 37°C for 6 hours to enrich HDL with TG.13,14 HDL (d=1.063 to 1.25) was isolated by sequential ultracentrifugation and dialyzed.13 HDL from fasting plasma and from the plasma after TG enrichment are referred to as native and TG-rich HDL, respectively. HL was purified from postheparin human plasma by heparin sepharose affinity chromatography.14 Half of the TG-rich HDL was incubated with HL at 34°C for 4 hours in the presence of 2.5% BSA and 60 U/mL heparin,13,14 followed by isolation and dialysis. The lipolytically modified HDL is referred to as remnant HDL. HDL preparations were each iodinated by a modification of the iodine monochloride method,33 reisolated, and dialyzed. Specific activities of the reisolated HDL ranged from 9 to 36 cpm/ng protein.
Lipid composition of HDL was assayed using commercial kits. Particle size was determined by 4% to 30% nondenaturing PAGE.16,34 A multiplex ELISA (Linco Research, St Charles, Mo) was used to quantify apolipoproteins. Lysophosphatidylcholine species were analyzed by electrospray tandem mass spectrometry using a Sciex API 4000 instrument.35 An immunoaffinity chromatography method was used to separate apoA-I only and apoA-I/A-II particles of labeled HDL.16,34 Labeled HDL were subjected to isoelectrofocusing,36 and bands corresponding to specific apolipoproteins were excised and counted for radioactivity.
Cell Binding Assays
Cell binding assays were performed at 4°C (HepG2 and HEK293 cells) or 37°C (CHO, ldlA7, and ldlA[hSR-BI] cells) for 150 minutes, and radioactivity in cell lysate was counted. Nonspecific binding was determined using 100x unlabeled HDL and was always <40% of total binding.
Competitive Inhibition Assays
Cells were incubated with 100 µg/mL labeled remnant HDL and increasing concentrations of unlabeled ligand for 150 minutes at 4°C, and radioactivity in cell lysate was counted.
Internalization Assay
After incubation with ligands at 37°C for 150 minutes, cells were washed and further incubated with excess cold ligands at 4°C for 150 minutes, and radioactivity in cell lysate was counted.11 Nonspecific internalization was determined by adding 100x unlabeled HDL and was always <40% of the total internalization.
Degradation Assay
Cellular degradation of HDL was assessed by measuring trichloracetic acid–nonprecipitable material present in the medium.37
Western Blot Analysis
HEK293 cell lysate was analyzed by 6% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and immunoblotted with a primary antibody against human cubilin (1:200) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology; sc-23644) and a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (1:4000) conjugated with horseradish peroxidase. Detection was by enhanced chemiluminescence. Rat kidney extract (Santa Cruz Biotechnology; sc-2394) was used as positive control. Western blotting of human SR-BI was as previously described.38
Statistics
Results are presented as means±SEM. Binding and competition assays were analyzed using Prism (v3.03, GraphPad, San Diego, Calif). F tests were performed in Prism to compare fitting of the binding data to 1 or 2 classes of binding sites. Time- or concentration-dependent data were analyzed by ANOVA with Tukeys post hoc test. Students unpaired t test was used to compare kinetic parameters or effects between different HDL preparations. A probability value of <0.05 was considered significant.

2-fold, with concomitant reduction in both cholesterol and phospholipids (Table), as was the case previously with HDL isolated from hypertriglyceridemic individuals39 and from subjects who received an IV infusion of Intralipid and heparin to enrich HDL with TG in vivo.16 HL hydrolysis of TG-rich HDL reduced the TG content without significantly altering the mass percentage of other components, consistent with ex vivo hydrolysis of rabbit HDL14 and HDL isolated from subjects following in vivo stimulation of lipolysis by IV heparin injection.40,41 TG enrichment after incubation with VLDL also yielded larger particles, whereas HL hydrolysis tended to decrease the particle size as compared to TG-rich HDL. ApoA-I and apoA-II accounted for the majority of protein and their relative contribution by mass to the total protein was not significantly affected by TG enrichment or HL hydrolysis. ApoCII and apoCIII were both reduced in TG-rich HDL, and their relative quantity in HDL was not further modified by HL. Remnant HDL had lower apoE compared to other HDL species. Among the lysophosphatidylcholine species, those with unsaturated fatty acids (18:2, 20:4, 22:5, and 22:6) were relatively increased in remnant HDL (Figure 1A). Lysophosphatidylcholines with 18:0 were also increased in both TG-rich and remnant HDL because of transfer of 18:0 and TG from VLDL during the TG enrichment (Figure 1B).

Binding of Native, TG-Rich, or Remnant HDL in HepG2 and HEK293 Cells
Binding of HDL in both cell lines exhibited concentration dependence with increased binding of remnant HDL compared to native and TG-rich HDL (Figure 2A and 2C). The maximal binding of remnant HDL was greater than that of either TG-rich or native HDL (P<0.001 in HepG2 cells and P<0.0001 in HEK293 cells). Binding affinity was similar for all ligands in HepG2 cells, whereas it was lower for remnant than for native or TG-rich HDL in HEK293 cells (P<0.05). Bmax and Kd were similar between native and TG-rich HDL in both cell types. F tests of the binding suggested no more than one binding site was needed to account for the binding kinetics. Scatchard analysis of the binding kinetics suggested a common binding site for all HDL ligands in both cell types (Figure 2B and 2D).

Competitive Inhibition of Remnant HDL Binding by Native, TG-Rich, or Remnant HDL in HepG2 and HEK293 Cells
Labeled remnant HDL binding was inhibited by unlabeled ligands in a concentration-dependent fashion (Figure 3A and 3B). Inhibition of labeled remnant HDL binding exhibited similar patterns by these 3 unlabeled ligands, ie, unlabeled native, TG-rich, or remnant HDL equally displaced labeled remnant bound to both cell types, demonstrating similar binding affinity and likely common binding site of all HDL species.
|
Cellular Internalization of Native, TG-Rich, or Remnant HDL in HepG2 and HEK293 Cells
In both HepG2 and HEK293 cells, total internalization was greater for remnant HDL than for native and TG-rich HDL (Figure 4A and 4B). For instance, at the highest concentrations measured, compared with native and TG-rich HDL, internalization of remnant HDL was 1.7- and 2.1-fold higher in HepG2 cells and 2.3- and 1.6-fold higher in HEK293 cells.
|
Cellular Degradation of Native, TG-Rich, or Remnant HDL in HepG2 and HEK293 Cells
HDL degradation was considerably higher in HEK293 cells than in HepG2 cells. At 180 µg/mL, degradation of native or TG-rich HDL was approximately double their degradation in HepG2 cells, and remnant HDL degradation was more than 3-fold higher than in HepG2 cells. In HepG2 cells, degradation of all three HDL species was similar. In contrast, remnant HDL degradation in HEK293 cells was greater than native or TG-rich HDL (P<0.01) (Figure 5A and 5B).
|
Cellular Binding of Native, TG-Rich, or Remnant HDL in CHO, ldlA7, and ldlA[hSR-BI] Cells
Expression of human SR-BI in ldlA[hSR-BI] cells was confirmed by immunofluorescence and Western blot (Figure 6A and 6B). Binding of HDL, regardless of modifications, to SR-BI expressing cells was greater than to control cells, indicating the role of SR-BI as an HDL receptor (Figure 6C). Binding of remnant as compared to native and TG-rich HDL was greater regardless of SR-BI expression, ie, in wild-type CHO, ldlA7, and ldlA[hSR-BI] cells, suggesting that SR-BI was not responsible for the selective increase in remnant HDL binding. Because both ldlA7 cells and ldlA[hSR-BI] lack the LDL receptor, the results also suggest that the different binding properties of the HDL species are not accounted for by mediation through the LDL receptor.

Effects of Heparin Treatment on Cellular Binding of Native, TG-Rich, or Remnant HDL in HepG2 Cells
At low concentration (100 µg/mL), heparin selectively blocks lipoprotein binding to heparin sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG),42 but not to the members of the LDL receptor family or other lipoprotein receptors.43 At high concentration (5 mg/mL), heparin blocks apoE receptor–mediated lipoprotein binding to cells.43 Treatment of cells with heparin did not abolish the enhanced binding of remnant HDL to HepG2 cells (Figure 6D). Disruption of HSPG using heparinase yielded similar results (not shown). These results suggest that enhanced binding of remnant HDL cannot be accounted for by a process mediated by cell surface HSPGs or apoE receptors.

The increased binding and internalization of remnant HDL was not attributable to a disproportionate enrichment of the particles with specific apolipoproteins after incubating with VLDL, because there was no difference between the HDL species used in our experiments with respect to their relative quantity of iodinated apolipoproteins (Figure I in the online data supplement). In addition, HL hydrolysis of the particle without prior TG enrichment and other compositional modifications that resulted from incubation with VLDL was insufficient to enhance binding and internalization, because hydrolysis of native HDL did not promote cell binding (supplemental Figure II). This latter experiment also demonstrates that any residual HL in the HDL fractions used in the binding experiments did not account for the enhanced binding of remnants through HL ligand binding activity. Thus, we have demonstrated in vitro, in accordance with our previous in vivo studies in rabbit,14,15 that both the prior exchange of lipids between HDL and VLDL and the subsequent lipolysis of HDL by HL are necessary to promote HDL cellular binding and clearance. Furthermore, all 3 HDL species used in our experiments contained a similar proportion of labeled lipoprotein AI/AII particles (66% in native, 62% in TG-rich, and 63% in remnant HDL), and the relative radioactivity of individual apolipoproteins did not differ between the three HDL species (supplemental Figure I). Remnant HDL had relatively greater long-chain fatty acids in lysophosphatidylcholine, particularly polyunsaturated fatty acids. It has been proposed that HDL that contain a greater proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids in lysophosphatidylcholine may have impaired capacity for reverse cholesterol transport.48
It would be informative if remnant HDL particles could be isolated directly from insulin resistant or hypertriglyceridemic subjects, to determine their precise composition and to test whether they behave in a pattern similar to that observed in our experimental system. Not only is it presently not technically possible to physically separate remnant HDL particles from nonremnant HDL species in human plasma but their more rapid clearance from the circulation in humans who have hypertriglyceridemia and higher HL activity would tend to relatively deplete the remnant HDL fraction, making them harder to isolate. In addition, endothelial lipase is also increased in these conditions45,49; thus, HDL from these subjects would likely result from more complex vascular remodeling.
Remnant HDL was degraded to a greater extent in HEK293 cells than native and TG-rich HDL, which is in agreement with the finding that the kidney is the major site of HDL apoAI catabolism.17,22 The greater degradation of remnant HDL provides a possible explanation of HDL lowering in vivo. In monkeys made hypertriglyceridemic through inhibition of lipoprotein lipase, the increased catabolic rate of apoA-I was associated with increased renal catabolism.50 HDL isolated from humans with low HDL-c, or from humans with high HDL-c but enriched with TG and lipolytically modified, exhibited higher apoA-I accumulation in perfused rabbit kidney.51 In our experiments, HDL was degraded to a much lesser extent in HepG2 cells than in HEK293 cells. This may reflect the mechanism of retroendocytosis, where HDL holoparticle uptake is followed by recycling of HDL particles back to the cell surface and resecretion of cholesteryl ester–poor HDL, leading to net uptake of lipids.52,53
We excluded several factors as playing a role in the enhanced binding of remnant HDL, including SR-BI, the LDL receptor, cell surface HSPGs, or apoE-mediated HDL binding. SR-BI plays a pivotal role in HDL cholesteryl ester selective uptake in the liver.19,20 Our results in ldlA7 and ldlA[hSR-BI] cells indicate that remnant HDL binding is not preferentially increased in SR-BI overexpressing versus low SR-BI–expressing cells, suggesting that SR-BI does not account for the greater binding of HDL remnants compared to native or TG-rich HDL particles. HDL particles can acquire apoE and are ligands for the LDL receptor and other apoE receptors.54 Because the increased binding of remnant versus native and TG-rich HDL was observed in LDL receptor deficient cells, with a similar pattern of binding as was seen in HepG2 and HEK293 cells, it is unlikely that the increased binding of remnant HDL is mediated by the LDL receptor. The enhanced remnant binding was also not abolished by blocking of apoE-mediated HDL binding or by disruption of cell surface HSPGs in HepG2 cells. Cubilin expression in HEK293 cells in the present culture conditions was not detected using Western blot (supplemental Figure III), and it is not expressed in HepG2 cells.55 Therefore, the enhanced binding of remnant HDL cannot be attributed to cubilin. We speculate that the enhanced binding of remnant HDL may not be attributable to a single factor; rather, it might be the amalgamated result of a series of events, such as modified lipid content and apolipoprotein composition, changes in particle size, surface charge, and HDL particle interaction with cell surface receptors. This is not surprising, considering the heterogeneous nature of the HDL particles and continuous remodeling of HDL particles in vivo. Precisely which receptor(s) plays a major role in binding and internalizing these lipolytically modified, TG-rich HDL particles will require further study.
In summary, the present studies have extended our previous in vivo observations to demonstrate that lipolytically modified TG-rich HDL have greater specific binding to and internalization in both liver cells and kidney cells and greater degradation in kidney cells, providing a biochemical mechanism for their more rapid clearance from the circulation. Further studies are needed to elucidate the nature of the HDL binding site and precisely which characteristics of the remnant HDL particles are responsible for the increased binding.
