Abstract
This review summarizes results of biochemical and immunohistochemical studies indicating the existence of functional heterogeneity of hepatocytes depending on their localization in the hepatic acinus; this determines characteristic features of metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and xenobiotics. The physiological significance of hepatocyte heterogeneity is discussed. According to the proposed model of intercellular communication, the metabolic specialization of hepatocytes is determined by secretory activity of hepatic resident macrophages (Kupffer cells) localized mainly in the periportal zone of the liver acinus. Macrophages participate in secretion of a wide spectrum of intercellular mediators (cytokines, prostaglandins, growth factors) and also in metabolism of numerous blood metabolites and biologically active substances (hormones, lipoproteins, etc.). In the sinusoid and in the space of Disse (also known as perisinusoidal space) they form a concentration gradient of regulatory factors and metabolites inducing the phenotypic differences between hepatocytes.

Abstract
Tetrahydrocortisol stimulates DNA and protein biosynthesis in hepatocytes only when it enters the complex with apolipoprotein A-I. Tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I (THC-apoA-I) complex specifically interacts with eukaryotic DNA isolated from rat liver. In the process of interaction, rupture of hydrogen bonds between the pairs of nitrous bases occurs with the formation of single-stranded DNA structures. In such state DNA forms complexes with DNA-dependent RNA-polymerase. The most probable site of binding the tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I complex with DNA is the sequence of CC(GCC)(n) type entering the structure of many genes, among them the structure of human apolipoprotein A-I gene. Oligonucleotide of this type has been synthesized. Association constant (K(ass)) of it with tetrahydrocortisol-apolipoprotein A-I complex was shown to be 1.66 x 10(6)M(-1). Substitution of tetrahydrocortisol for cortisol in the complex results in a considerable decrease of K(ass). It was assumed that in the GC-pairs of the given sequence tetrahydrocortisol itself participates in the formation of hydrogen bonds with cytosine, favoring their rupture with complementary base-guanine.

Abstract
The inverse correlation between serum levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and the risk of coronary heart disease, the protection of susceptible animals from atherosclerosis by transgenic manipulation of HDL metabolism, and several potentially anti-atherogenic in vitro-properties have made HDL metabolism an interesting target for pharmacological intervention in atheroslcerosis. We have previously reviewed the concept of reverse cholesterol transport, which describes both the metabolism and the classic anti-atherogenic function of HDL (Arterioscler. Thromb. Vasc. Biol. 20 2001 13). We here summarize the current understanding of additional biological, potentially anti-atherogenic properties of HDL. HDL inhibits the chemotaxis of monocytes, the adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium, endothelial dysfunction and apoptosis, LDL oxidation, complement activation, platelet activation and factor X activation but also stimulates the proliferation of endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells, the synthesis of prostacyclin and natriuretic peptide C in endothelial cells, and the activation of proteins C and S. These anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-aggregatory, anti-coagulant, and pro-fibrinolytic activities are exerted by different components of HDL, namley apolipoproteins, enzymes, and even specific phospholipids. This complexity further emphasizes that changes in the functionality of HDL rather than changes of plasma HDL-cholesterol levels determine the anti-atherogenicity of therapeutic alterations of HDL metabolism.

Abstract
The influence of HDL3 on phospholipid breakdown was examined in human skin fibroblasts. HDL3 elicited phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) turnover and activated multiple phospholipases. In [14C]lyso-PC-labeled or [14C]choline (Cho)-labeled cells, a biphasic activation of PC-specific phospholipase D (PLD) with peak maxima 30 to 60 seconds and 5 to 7 minutes after stimulation with 20 micrograms/mL HDL3 was shown by (1) a 1.5- to 3-fold increase in Cho release, and (3) transphosphatidylation of PC to phosphatidylbutanol in the presence of 0.3% butanol. Activation of PC-specific PLD was paralleled by an activation of PC-specific phospholipase C (PLC). A significant increase in [14C]diacylglycerol (DG) was seen from 2 minutes after stimulation onward and remained for at least 2 hours. By means of butanol, the PA-phosphohydrolase (PPH) inhibitor propranolol, and the PC-PLC inhibitor D609, we demonstrated that the initial PC-derived DG formation occurred primarily by a coupled PLD/PPH pathway and that a major part of the sustained DG formation was derived directly from PC by PC-PLC. By down-regulating protein kinase C (PKC) we demonstrated that PKC activates PC-PLC and desensitizes PC-PLD at no longer incubation times. The sustained PC hydrolysis as well as HDL3-mediated PI turnover and PC resynthesis was observed on stimulation with 5 to 75 micrograms/mL HDL3, whereas the rapid activation of PC-PLD/PPH was detected only on stimulation with HDL3 at concentrations of between 10 and 75 micrograms/mL. Only the latter response could be mimicked by apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein A-II proteoliposomes, and only this response was inducible by cholesterol loading. The HDL3-mediated second-messenger responses were inhibited by modification of HDL3 by tetranitromethane and could not be mimicked by protein-free liposomes. These data suggest that HDL3-induced cell signaling in human skin fibroblasts is mediated by specific protein-receptor interaction and that more than one agonist activity may be involved.

Abstract
Previous studies from our laboratory demonstrated that high-density lipoproteins (subclass 3; HDL3) bind to sites specific for apolipoprotein AI on the human adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and that HDL3 binding promotes a mitogenic effect [Favre, Tazi, Le Gaillard, Bennis, Hachem and Soula (1993) J. Lipid Res. 34, 1093-1106]. In the present study, we have examined the cell proteins that showed modified phosphorylation after binding of HDL3 to specific sites, and the roles of Ca2+ and protein kinase C. Native HDL3 (but not tetranitromethane-modified HDL3) and Ca2+ ionophore A23187 strongly enhanced the phosphorylation of a 20 kDa protein (x 3.6) and, to a lower extent, the phosphorylation of 24 and 28 kDa proteins (x 2.2 and 2.6 respectively). The two effectors were equally able to stimulate cell growth. Down-regulation of protein kinase C by a 24 h incubation of cells with phorbol myristate acetate prevented the effects of HDL3 on the phosphorylation of 24 and 28 kDa proteins. However, the extent of phosphorylation of the 20 kDa protein was not affected. In contrast, activation of protein kinase C by a short incubation with phorbol myristate acetate resulted in inhibition of proliferation and an increase in 24 and 28 kDa (but not 20 kDa) protein phosphorylation. These results suggest that HDL3 putative receptors exert their proliferative effect on A549 cells through activation of a Ca(2+)-dependent protein kinase. This kinase activity is not modulated by phorbol ester and thus may be a calmodulin kinase or an isoenzyme of protein kinase C that is independent of phorbol ester. It allows a subsequent 20 kDa protein to be phosphorylated.

Abstract
It has been shown previously that a specific high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor exists on human lymphocytes that recognizes apoprotein (apo) A1 as its ligand, and may be responsible for utilization of HDL lipids to respond optimally to mitogenic stimulation when cultured in serum-free medium supplemented with HDL. To clarify further the relationship between various HDL lipids used by lymphocytes and HDL receptor activity, the lipid composition of the cells and the regulation of HDL and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors on freshly isolated lymphocytes and mitogen-activated T-blasts after treatment with lipoproteins, liposomes or fatty acids were investigated. Our data show that the linear increase in cell proliferation correlates with the presence of HDL in fatty-acid-free culture medium in the concentration range of HDL receptor saturation. Decreased binding/uptake of dioctadecylindocarbocyanine (DiI)-fluorescence-labelled HDL by freshly isolated lymphocytes was observed in the presence of unlabelled HDL in 4-day culture, whereas T-blast binding/uptake was down-regulated by preincubation not only with HDL but also with LDL. T-blasts pretreated with HDL showed increased cellular contents of phosphatidylcholine, oleic acid (C18:1,n-9) and linoleic acid (C18:2,n-6), which are essential for optimal proliferation of mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes. Furthermore, DiI-HDL binding on lymphocytes was down-regulated by up to 20% (resting T cells) and 50% (T-blasts) when cultured in the presence of apoA1-phosphatidylcholine liposomes (T-blasts only), oleic acid or linoleic acid, but not by stearic acid (C18:0). The results indicate that HDL provide lymphocytes with essential fatty acids, which in turn regulate HDL receptor activity.

Ethoxyquin-induced resistance to aflatoxin B1 in the rat is associated with the expression of a novel alpha-class glutathione S-transferase subunit, Yc2, which possesses high catalytic activity for aflatoxin B1-8,9-epoxide.

Abstract
A purification scheme has been devised for two ethoxyquin-inducible Alpha-class glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) which possess at least 25-fold greater activity towards aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-8,9-epoxide than that exhibited by the GSTs (i.e. F, L, B and AA) that have been described previously. These two enzymes are both heterodimers and both contain a subunit of Mr 25,800. This subunit has been isolated from both of the GST isoenzymes and, after cleavage with CNBr, it has been subjected to automated amino acid sequencing. The primary structure of the Mr 25,800 subunit revealed that it forms part of a subfamily of Alpha-class GSTs which possess closest identity (about 92%) with the Yc subunit of apparent Mr 27,500, which is encoded by the recombinant cDNA clone pGTB42 [Telakowski-Hopkins, Rodkey, Bennett, Lu & Pickett (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 5820-5825]. As these two GSTs possess less than 70% sequence identity with the Ya1 and Ya2 subunits, both of Mr 25,500, the constitutively expressed Yc subunit of Mr 27,500 has been renamed Yc1 and the ethoxyquin-inducible GST of Mr 25,800 has been designated Yc2. Using this nomenclature, the two GSTs with high activity for AFB1-8,9-epoxide are Ya1Yc2 and Yc1Yc2. Although evidence suggests that induction of Yc2 is responsible for the high detoxification capacity of livers from ethoxyquin-treated rats for AFB1-8,9-epoxide, resistance towards AFB1 may be multifactorial in this instance as dietary ethoxyquin also induces the Ya1, Ya2 and Yc1 subunits about 2.2-, 10.9- and 2.7-fold respectively. Besides the induction of GST by ethoxyquin, activity towards AFB1-8,9-epoxide is also elevated in the livers of neonatal rats and in livers that contain preneoplastic nodules. Western blotting experiments show that Yc2 is not present in hepatic cytosol from adult rats fed on normal diets but is expressed in neonatal rat livers and in the livers of adult rats that contain preneoplastic nodules that have arisen as a consequence of consuming diets contaminated with AFB1.

Abstract
Several intraerythrocytic growth cycles of Plasmodium falciparum could be achieved in vitro using a serum free medium supplemented only with a human high density lipoprotein (HDL) fraction (d = 1.063-1.210). The parasitemia obtained was similar to that in standard culture medium containing human serum. The parasite development was incomplete with the low density lipoprotein (LDL) fraction and did not occur with the VLDL fraction. The lipid traffic from HDL to the infected erythrocytes was demonstrated by pulse labeling experiments using HDL loaded with either fluorescent NBD-phosphatidylcholine (NBD-PC) or radioactive [3H]palmitoyl-PC. At 37 degrees C, the lipid probes rapidly accumulated in the infected cells. After incubation in HDL medium containing labeled PC, a subsequent incubation in medium with either an excess of native HDL or 20% human serum induced the disappearance of the label from the erythrocyte plasma membrane but not from the intraerythrocytic parasite. Internalization of lipids did not occur at 4 degrees C. The mechanism involved a unidirectional flux of lipids but no endocytosis. The absence of labeling of P. falciparum, with HDL previously [125I]iodinated on their apolipoproteins or with antibodies against the apolipoproteins AI and AII by immunofluorescence and immunoblotting, confirmed that no endocytosis of the HDL was involved. A possible pathway of lipid transport could be a membrane flux since fluorescence videomicroscopy showed numerous organelles labeled with NBD-PC moving between the erythrocyte and the parasitophorous membranes. TLC analysis showed that a partial conversion of the PC to phosphatidylethanolamine was observed in P. falciparum-infected red cells after pulse with [3H]palmitoyl-PC-HDL. The intensity of the lipid traffic was stage dependent with a maximum at the trophozoite and young schizont stages (38th h of the erythrocyte life cycle). We conclude that the HDL fraction appears to be a major lipid source for Plasmodium growth.
