Metabolism of VLDL Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

VLDLs are produced in the liver. They are composed predominantly of triacylglycerol (approximately 60%), and their function is to carry this lipid from the liver to the peripheral tissues. There, the triacylglycerol is degraded by lipoprotein lipase, as discussed for chylomicrons. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Release of VLDL VLDL are secreted directly into the blood by the liver as nascent VLDL particles containing apo B-100. They must obtain apo C-II and apo E from circulating HDL . As with chylomicrons, apo C-II is required for activation of lipoprotein lipase Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Modification of circulating VLDL As VLDL pass through the circulation, triacylglycerol is degraded by lipoprotein lipase, causing the VLDL to decrease in size and become denser. Surface components, including the C and E apoproteins, are returned to HDL, but the particles retain apo B-100. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

This exchange is accomplished by cholesteryl ester transfer protein. Transfer of cholesteryl esters (CE) from HDL to VLDL in exchange for triacylglycerol (TAG) or phospholipids (PL). Some triacylglycerols are transferred from VLDL to HDL in an exchange reaction that concomitantly transfers some cholesteryl esters from HDL to VLDL. This exchange is accomplished by cholesteryl ester transfer protein. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Production of LDL from VLDL in the plasma With these modifications, the VLDL is converted in the plasma to LDL. Intermediate-sized particles, the intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL) or VLDL remnants, are observed during this transition. IDLs can also be taken up by cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis that uses apo E as the ligand. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Metabolism of LDL LDL particles contain much less triacylglycerol than their VLDL predecessors, and have a high concentration of cholesterol and cholesteryl esters. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

After binding, the LDL-receptor complex is internalized by endocytosis LDL receptors are negatively charged glycoproteins that are clustered in pits on cell membranes. The intracellular side of the pit is coated with the protein clathrin. After binding, the LDL-receptor complex is internalized by endocytosis Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

The vesicle containing the LDL rapidly loses its clathrin coat and fuses with other similar vesicles, forming larger vesicles called endosomes. The pH of the endosome falls (due to the proton-pumping activity of endosomal ATPase), which allows separation of the LDL from its receptor. The receptors then migrate to one side of the endosome, whereas the LDLs stay free within the lumen of the vesicle. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

The receptors can be recycled, whereas the lipoprotein remnants in the vesicle are transferred to lysosomes and degraded by lysosomal (hydrolytic) enzymes, releasing free cholesterol, amino acids, fatty acids, and phospholipids. These compounds can be reutilized by the cell. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Effect of endocytosed cholesterol on cellular cholesterol homeostasis The chylomicron remnant-, IDL-, and LDL-derived cholesterol affects cellular cholesterol content in several ways . First, HMG CoA reductase is inhibited by high cholesterol, as a result of which, de novo cholesterol synthesis decreases. Second, synthesis of new LDL receptor protein is reduced by decreasing the expression of the LDL receptor gene, thus limiting further entry of LDL cholesterol into cells. Third, if the cholesterol is not required immediately for some structural or synthetic purpose, it is esterified by acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT). Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Synthesis of intracellular cholesteryl ester by ACAT ACAT transfers a fatty acid from a fatty acyl CoA derivative to cholesterol, producing a cholesteryl ester that can be stored in the cell. The activity of ACAT is enhanced in the presence of increased intracellular cholesterol. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi

Uptake of chemically modified LDL by macrophage scavenger receptors In addition to the highly specific and regulated receptor-mediated pathway for LDL uptake, macrophages possess high levels of scavenger receptor activity. These receptors, known as scavenger receptor class A (SR-A), can bind a broad range of ligands, and mediate the endocytosis of chemically modified LDL in which the lipid components or apo B have been oxidized. Cholesteryl esters accumulate in macrophages and cause their transformation into “foam” cells, which participate in the formation of atherosclerotic plaque. Dr. Nikhat Siddiqi
