摘要：Incubation of low (LDL), intermediate (IDL), or very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) with palmitic acid and either high density lipoproteins (HDL), delipidated HDL, or purified apolipoprotein (apo) A-I resulted in the formation of lipoprotein particles with discoidal structure and mean particle diameters ranging from 146 to 254 A by electron microscopy. Discs produced from IDL or LDL averaged 26% protein, 42% phospholipid, 5% cholesteryl esters, 24% free cholesterol, and 3% triglycerides; preparations derived from VLDL contained up to 21% triglycerides. ApoA-I was the predominant protein present, with smaller amounts of apoA-II. Crosslinking studies of discs derived from LDL or IDL indicated the presence of four apoA-I molecules per particle, while those derived from large VLDL varied more in size and contained as many as six apoA-I molecules per particle. Incubation of discs derived from IDL or LDL with purified lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), albumin, and a source of free cholesterol produced core-containing particles with size and composition similar to HDL2b. VLDL-derived discs behaved similarly, although the HDL products were somewhat larger and more variable in size. When discs were incubated with plasma d greater than 1.21 g/ml fraction rather than LCAT, core-containing particles in the size range of normal HDL2a and HDL3a were also produced. A variety of other purified free fatty acids were shown to promote disc formation. In addition, some mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids facilitated the formation of smaller, spherical particles in the size range of HDL3c. Both discoidal and small spherical apoA-I-containing lipoproteins were generated when native VLDL was incubated with lipoprotein lipase in the presence of delipidated HDL. We conclude that lipolysis product-mediated dissociation of lipid-apoA-I complexes from VLDL, IDL, or LDL may be a mechanism for formation of HDL subclasses during lipolysis, and that the availability of different lipids may influence the type of HDL-precursors formed by this mechanism.
