An DB, Ann SJ, Seok S, Kang Y, Lee SH. Hepatic Cdkal1 deletion regulates HDL catabolism and promotes reverse cholesterol transport. Atherosclerosis 2023; 375:21-29. [PMID: 37245423 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.05.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Associations between CDKAL1 variants and cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) have been reported. This study aimed to investigate the effects of Cdkal1 deficiency on high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism, atherosclerosis, and related pathways. METHODS Lipid and glucose metabolic profiles, CEC, and in vivo reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) were compared in liver-specific Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl and Cdkal1fl/fl mice. Aortic atherosclerosis was compared in Apoe-/-Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl and Apoe-/- mice fed high-fat diets. HDL subclasses and mediators of HDL metabolism from Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice were examined. RESULTS HDL-cholesterol level tended to be higher in the Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice (p = 0.050). Glucose and other lipid profiles were similar in the two groups of mice, irrespective of diet. The mean CEC was 27% higher (p = 0.007) in the Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice, as were the radioactivities of bile acids (mean difference 17%; p = 0.035) and cholesterol (mean difference 42%; p = 0.036) from faeces. The radioactivity tendency was largely similar in mice fed a high-fat diet. Atherosclerotic lesion area tended to be smaller in the Apoe-/-Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice than in the Apoe-/- mice (p = 0.067). Cholesterol concentrations in large HDLs were higher in the Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice (p = 0.024), whereas in small HDLs, they were lower (p = 0.024). Endothelial lipase (mean difference 39%; p = 0.002) and hepatic lipase expression levels (mean difference 34%; p < 0.001) were reduced in the Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice, whereas SR-B1 expression was elevated (mean difference 35%; p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS The promotion of CEC and RCT in Alb-Cre:Cdkal1fl/fl mice verified the effect of CDKAL1 seen in human genetic data. These phenotypes were related to regulation of HDL catabolism. This study suggests that CDKAL1 and associated molecules could be targets for improving RCT and vascular pathology.

Vyletelová V, Nováková M, Pašková Ľ. Alterations of HDL's to piHDL's Proteome in Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Diseases, and HDL-Targeted Therapies. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:1278. [PMID: 36297390 PMCID: PMC9611871 DOI: 10.3390/ph15101278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2022] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, steatohepatitis, periodontitis, chronic kidney disease, and others are associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, which persists even after accounting for traditional cardiac risk factors. The common factor linking these diseases to accelerated atherosclerosis is chronic systemic low-grade inflammation triggering changes in lipoprotein structure and metabolism. HDL, an independent marker of cardiovascular risk, is a lipoprotein particle with numerous important anti-atherogenic properties. Besides the essential role in reverse cholesterol transport, HDL possesses antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antiapoptotic, and antithrombotic properties. Inflammation and inflammation-associated pathologies can cause modifications in HDL's proteome and lipidome, transforming HDL from atheroprotective into a pro-atherosclerotic lipoprotein. Therefore, a simple increase in HDL concentration in patients with inflammatory diseases has not led to the desired anti-atherogenic outcome. In this review, the functions of individual protein components of HDL, rendering them either anti-inflammatory or pro-inflammatory are described in detail. Alterations of HDL proteome (such as replacing atheroprotective proteins by pro-inflammatory proteins, or posttranslational modifications) in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases and their impact on cardiovascular health are discussed. Finally, molecular, and clinical aspects of HDL-targeted therapies, including those used in therapeutical practice, drugs in clinical trials, and experimental drugs are comprehensively summarised.

Plasma HDL pattern, cholesterol efflux and cholesterol loading capacity of serum in carriers of a novel missense variant (Gly176Trp) of endothelial lipase. J Clin Lipidol 2022; 16:694-703. [PMID: 36002365 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacl.2022.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2022] [Revised: 05/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Loss of function variants of LIPG gene encoding endothelial lipase (EL) are associated with primary hyperalphalipoproteinemia (HALP), a lipid disorder characterized by elevated plasma levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). OBJECTIVE Aim of the study was the phenotypic and genotypic characterization of a family with primary HALP. METHODS HDL subclasses distribution was determined by polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis. Serum content of preβ-HDL was assessed by (2D)-electrophoresis. Cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) of serum mediated by ABCA1, ABCG1 or SR-BI was assessed using cells expressing these proteins. Cholesterol loading capacity (CLC) of serum was assayed using cultured human macrophages. Next generation sequencing was used for DNA analysis. Plasma EL mass was determined by ELISA. RESULTS Three family members had elevated plasma HDL-C, apoA-I and total phospholipids, as well as a reduced content of preβ-HDL. These subjects were heterozygous carriers of a novel variant of LIPG gene [c.526 G>T, p.(Gly176Trp)] found to be deleterious in silico. Plasma EL mass in carriers was lower than in controls. CEC of sera mediated by ABCA1 and ABCG1 transporters was substantially reduced in the carriers. This effect was maintained after correction for serum HDL concentration. The sera of carriers were found to have a higher CLC in cultured human macrophages than control sera. CONCLUSION The novel p.(Gly176Trp) variant of endothelial lipase is associated with changes in HDL composition and subclass distribution as well as with functional changes affecting cholesterol efflux capacity of serum which suggest a defect in the early steps of revere cholesterol transport.

Abstract
The high density lipoprotein (HDL) fraction of human plasma consists of multiple subpopulations of spherical particles that are structurally uniform, but heterogeneous in terms of size, composition and function. Numerous epidemiological studies have established that an elevated high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level is associated with decreased cardiovascular risk. However, with several recent randomised clinical trials of HDL-C raising agents failing to reduce cardiovascular events, contemporary research is transitioning towards clinical development of the cardioprotective functions of HDLs and the identification of functions that can be exploited for treatment of other diseases. This review describes the origins of HDLs and the causes of their compositional and functional heterogeneity. It then summarises current knowledge of how cardioprotective and other functions of HDLs are regulated. The final section of the review summarises recent advances in the clinical development of HDL-targeted therapies.

Abstract
The 15th edition of the Workshop on Recent Issues in Bioanalysis (15th WRIB) was held on 27 September to 1 October 2021. Even with a last-minute move from in-person to virtual, an overwhelmingly high number of nearly 900 professionals representing pharma and biotech companies, contract research organizations (CROs), and multiple regulatory agencies still eagerly convened to actively discuss the most current topics of interest in bioanalysis. The 15th WRIB included 3 Main Workshops and 7 Specialized Workshops that together spanned 1 week in order to allow exhaustive and thorough coverage of all major issues in bioanalysis, biomarkers, immunogenicity, gene therapy, cell therapy and vaccines. Moreover, in-depth workshops on biomarker assay development and validation (BAV) (focused on clarifying the confusion created by the increased use of the term "Context of Use - COU"); mass spectrometry of proteins (therapeutic, biomarker and transgene); state-of-the-art cytometry innovation and validation; and, critical reagent and positive control generation were the special features of the 15th edition. This 2021 White Paper encompasses recommendations emerging from the extensive discussions held during the workshop, and is aimed to provide the bioanalytical community with key information and practical solutions on topics and issues addressed, in an effort to enable advances in scientific excellence, improved quality and better regulatory compliance. Due to its length, the 2021 edition of this comprehensive White Paper has been divided into three parts for editorial reasons. This publication (Part 1A) covers the recommendations on Endogenous Compounds, Small Molecules, Complex Methods, Regulated Mass Spec of Large Molecules, Small Molecule, PoC. Part 1B covers the Regulatory Agencies' Inputs on Bioanalysis, Biomarkers, Immunogenicity, Gene & Cell Therapy and Vaccine. Part 2 (ISR for Biomarkers, Liquid Biopsies, Spectral Cytometry, Inhalation/Oral & Multispecific Biotherapeutics, Accuracy/LLOQ for Flow Cytometry) and Part 3 (TAb/NAb, Viral Vector CDx, Shedding Assays; CRISPR/Cas9 & CAR-T Immunogenicity; PCR & Vaccine Assay Performance; ADA Assay Comparabil ity & Cut Point Appropriateness) are published in volume 14 of Bioanalysis, issues 10 and 11 (2022), respectively.

Development and validation of a ligand-binding assay for quantification of the F(ab') 2 antivenom of Daboia russelii siamensis in human serum and its application to a phase I clinical study. J Pharm Biomed Anal 2022; 212:114645. [PMID: 35149421 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpba.2022.114645] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2021] [Revised: 02/02/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Daboia russelii siamensis accounts for most of snakebite mortalities in China, yet, specific treatment against the venom toxins is absent in clinical practice. The F(ab')2 antivenom of Daboia russelii siamensis is manufactured and approved for the clinical trial in China. To satisfy the need for clinical pharmacokinetic research, this study aimed to develop a ligand binding assay (LBA) for the quantification of F(ab')2 antivenom of Daboia russelii siamensis in human serum. A diverse combination of conditions was optimized based on the fitness of the calibration curve and selectivity. The established LBA undergoes thorough method validation according to the guidelines of regulatory authorities. In the calibration range 1.0-64 μg/mL, the correlation coefficient r2 was from 0.9970 to 1.000, indicating good fitness. Accuracy and precision were within ± 20%. Dilution linearity was observed in the ultra-high quality-control (QC) samples (500 μg/mL). In addition, the assay was free from hook effect, the endogenous interferences and exogenous interferences. The QC samples were stable under different handling and storage conditions. The validated assay was successfully applied to a phase I clinical study of the F(ab')2 antivenom of Daboia russelii siamensis in Chinese healthy volunteers. The peak concentrations exhibited dose-proportionality. In conclusion, this study provides a novel and reliable LBA method for the clinical pharmacokinetic research of F(ab')2 antivenom of Daboia russelii siamensis. It will facilitate further clinical trials in treating the snakebite of Daboia russelii siamensis.
