- W2034454243 abstract "Patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) have elevated plasma concentrations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and develop premature atherosclerosis. There is increasing evidence that oxidative modification of LDL is important for the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, and the LDL-associated platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) seems to play a key role in LDL oxidation by hydrolysing the oxidized phospholipids of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and producing lysophosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC). We measured the total serum and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels of PAF-AH activity and studied the distribution of PAF-AH activity among three LDL subfractions isolated by gradient ultracentrifugation in 15 patients with heterozygous FH and 13 normolipidaemic control subjects. We also determined the lyso-PC production in each LDL subfraction during Cu2+-induced oxidation in vitro. The total serum PAF-AH activity in heterozygous FH patients was significantly higher than in control subjects, whereas the HDL-associated PAF-AH activity, expressed as a percentage of total serum PAF-AH activity, was significantly lower in the FH patients than in control subjects (13.9 ± 6.6% vs. 30.6 ± 4.4%, P < 0.001). Among the LDL subfractions, the PAF-AH activity in both normolipidaemic control subjects and FH patients, expressed as nmol mg−1 protein min−1, was significantly higher in the LDL3 subfraction (33.1 ± 4.8 and 53.4 ± 11.5 respectively) than in the LDL2 (18.6 ± 5.3 and 26.8 ± 10.4 respectively, P < 0.0001 for both comparisons) and LDL1 subfractions (5.1 ± 1.5 and 7.8 ± 2.6, respectively, P < 0.0001 for both comparisons). Additionally, the enzyme activity in each LDL subfraction of the heterozygous FH patients was significantly higher than in control subjects (P < 0.02 for LDL1, P < 0.03 for LDL2 and P < 0.0001 for LDL3). No difference was observed in the susceptibility to oxidation of each LDL subfraction among the heterozygous FH patients and the normolipidaemic control subjects. During oxidation, the PAF-AH activity decreased, whereas the lyso-PC levels significantly increased in all subfractions of both groups. The lyso-PC/sphingomyelin molar ratio in each LDL subfraction of the FH patients 3 h after the onset of the oxidation was significantly higher than in control subjects [0.38 ± 0.05 and 0.27 ± 0.04, respectively, for LDL1 (P < 0.006), 0.47 ± 0.08 and 0.39 ± 0.03, respectively, for LDL2 (P < 0.04), 0.55 ± 0.11 and 0.42 ± 0.06, respectively, for LDL3 (P < 0.02)]. Our results show that heterozygous FH patients exhibit higher PAF-AH activity than control subjects in all LDL subfractions, resulting in higher lyso-PC production during oxidation, which confers on these subfractions higher biological potency. This phenomenon, in combination with the diminished anti-atherogenic and antioxidant capability of HDL in these patients due to the relatively low HDL-cholesterol levels compared with LDL-cholesterol levels and, consequently, the relatively low HDL-associated PAF-AH activity, could contribute to the higher atherogenicity and incidence of coronary artery disease observed in FH patients." @default.
