Abstract
Coronary heart disease, also known as ischemic heart disease, is induced by atherosclerosis, which is initiated by subendothelial retention of lipoproteins. Plasma lipoproteins, including high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein (LDL), very low density lipoprotein, and chylomicron, are composed of a surface monolayer containing phospholipids and cholesterol and a hydrophobic core containing triglycerides and cholesteryl esters. Phospholipids play a crucial role in the binding of apolipoproteins and enzymes to lipoprotein surfaces, thereby regulating lipoprotein metabolism. High LDL-cholesterol is a well-known risk factor for coronary heart disease, and statins reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by lowering LDL-cholesterol levels. In contrast, the relationships of phospholipids in plasma lipoproteins with coronary heart disease have not yet been established. To further clarify the physiological and pathological roles of phospholipids, we have developed the simple high-throughput assays for quantifying all major phospholipid classes, namely phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol + cardiolipin, and sphingomyelin, using combinations of specific enzymes and a fluorogenic probe. These enzymatic fluorometric assays will be helpful in elucidating the associations between phospholipid classes in plasma lipoproteins and coronary heart disease and in identifying phospholipid biomarkers. This review describes recent progress in the identification of phospholipid biomarkers of coronary heart disease.

Abstract
Dysregulated lipid metabolism contributes to neurodegenerative pathologies and neurological decline in lysosomal storage disorders as well as more common neurodegenerative diseases. Niemann-Pick type A (NPA) is a fatal neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disease characterized by abnormal sphingomyelin accumulation in the endolysosomal lumen. The ability to monitor abnormalities in lipid homeostasis intracranially could improve basic investigations and the development of effective treatment strategies. We investigated the carbon nanotube-based detection of intracranial lipid content. We found that the near-infrared emission of a carbon nanotube-based lipid sensor responds to lipid accumulation in neuronal and in vivo models of NPA. The nanosensor detected lipid accumulation intracranially in an acid sphingomyelinase knockout mouse via noninvasive near-infrared spectroscopy. This work indicates a tool to improve drug development processes in NPA, other lysosomal storage diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Lipoprotein, especially high-density lipoprotein (HDL), particles are composed of multiple heterogeneous subgroups containing various proteins and lipids. The molecular distribution among these subgroups is closely related to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Here, we established high-resolution proteomics and lipidomics (HiPL) methods to depict the molecular profiles across lipoprotein (Lipo-HiPL) and HDL (HDL-HiPL) subgroups by optimizing the resolution of anion-exchange chromatography and comprehensive quantification of proteins and lipids on the omics level. Furthermore, based on the Pearson correlation coefficient analysis of molecular profiles across high-resolution subgroups, we achieved the relationship of proteome‒lipidome connectivity (PLC) for lipoprotein and HDL particles. By application of these methods to high-fat, high-cholesterol diet-fed rabbits and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients, we uncovered the delicate dynamics of the molecular profile and reconstruction of lipoprotein and HDL particles. Of note, the PLC features revealed by the HDL-HiPL method discriminated ACS from healthy individuals better than direct proteome and lipidome quantification or PLC features revealed by the Lipo-HiPL method, suggesting their potential in ACS diagnosis. Together, we established HiPL methods to trace the dynamics of the molecular profile and PLC of lipoprotein and even HDL during the development of CVD.

Mol Genet Metab 2020; 131:245-252. [PMID: 32620536 DOI: 10.1016/j.ymgme.2020.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2020] [Revised: 05/19/2020] [Accepted: 06/22/2020] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
The liver is a major site of lipoprotein synthesis and metabolism. Liver manifestations of chronic visceral ASMD include hepatomegaly, fibrosis, elevated liver enzymes and a pro-atherogenic lipid profile. Measurements of sphingomyelin (SM) levels in liver biopsies and lyso-SM in plasma were used as pharmacodynamic biomarkers. Five adult patients with chronic visceral ASMD were enrolled in a 26-week phase 1b trial of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with olipudase alfa (NCT01722526) followed by an ongoing long-term extension study (NCT02004704). We compare the changes in hepatic SM levels, plasma lyso-SM, and lipoprotein profiles after 42 months of treatment. Progressive clearance of histologic SM storage was observed throughout the trial, along with similar reductions in plasma lyso-SM. Improvements in liver enzymes were observed at 6 months and remained stable at 42 months. Progressive reductions from baseline in pro-atherogenic lipid profiles (total cholesterol, LDL-C, VLDL-C, triglycerides) were observed at month 6 and 42. Conversely, there were progressive increases in anti-atherogenic markers, HDL-C and apolipoprotein A-I, with HDL-C increases up to 200% over baseline levels after 42 months of treatment. These data demonstrate that hepatic clearance of SM during olipudase alfa treatment over 42 months is associated with overall improvements in the lipid profiles of ASMD patients. The clinical relevance of these findings needs to be determined in the future, but we speculate that these improvements may reduce the risk for liver cirrhosis and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with a Fontan circulation have altered cholesterol and lipoprotein values. We analysed small organic molecules in extended phopsholipid and acylcarnitine metabolic pathways ('metabolomes') in adult Fontan patients with a dominant left ventricle, seeking differences between profiles in baseline and Fontan circulations. METHODS In an observational matched cross-sectional study, we compared phosphatidylcholine (PC), sphingomyelin (SM), and acylcarnitine metabolomes (105 analytes; AbsoluteIDQ® p180 kit (Biocrates Life Sciences AG, Innsbruck, Austria) in 20 adult Fontan patients having a dominant left ventricle with those in 20 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. RESULTS Serum levels of total PC (q-value 0.01), total SM (q-value 0.0002) were significantly lower, and total acylcarnitines (q-value 0.02) were significantly higher in patients than in controls. After normalisation of data, serum levels of 12 PC and 1 SM Fontan patients were significantly lower (q-values <0.05), and concentrations of 3 acylcarnitines were significantly higher than those in controls (q-values <0.05). CONCLUSION Metabolomic profiling can use small specimens to identify biomarker patterns that track derangement in multiple metabolic pathways. The striking alterations in the phospholipid and acylcarnitine metabolome that we found in Fontan patients may reflect altered cell signalling and metabolism as found in heart failure in biventricular patients, chronic low-level inflammation, and alteration of functional or structural properties of lymphatic or blood vessels.

Abstract
Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD; Niemann-Pick disease type A and B) is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by abnormal intracellular sphingomyelin (SM) accumulation. Prominent liver involvement results in hepatomegaly, fibrosis/cirrhosis, abnormal liver chemistries, and a proatherogenic lipid profile. Olipudase alfa (recombinant human ASM) is in clinical development as an investigational enzyme replacement therapy for the non-neurological manifestations of ASMD. In a phase 1b study conducted to evaluate the safety and tolerability of within-patient dose escalation with olipudase alfa, measurement of SM levels in liver biopsies was used as a pharmacodynamic biomarker of substrate burden. Five adult patients with non neuronopathic ASMD received escalating doses of olipudase alfa every 2 weeks for 26 weeks. Liver biopsies obtained at baseline and 26 weeks after treatment were evaluated for SM storage by histomorphometric analysis, biochemistry, and electron microscopy. Biopsies were also assessed for inflammation and fibrosis, and for the association of SM levels with liver volume, liver function tests, and lipid profiles. At baseline, SM storage present in Kupffer cells and hepatocytes ranged from 9.8% to 53.8% of the microscopic field. After 26 weeks of treatment, statistically significant reductions in SM (P<0.0001) measured by morphometry were seen in 4 patients with evaluable liver biopsies. The 26-week biopsy of the fifth patient was insufficient for morphometric quantitation. Posttreatment SM levels ranged from 1.2% to 9.5% of the microscopic field, corresponding to an 84% to 92% relative reduction from baseline. Improvements in liver volume, liver function tests, and lipid profiles were also observed. This study illustrates the utility of SM assessment by liver biopsy as a pharmacodynamic biomarker of disease burden in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sphingomyelin (SM) is a key component of extracellular membranes and lipoproteins, and plays roles in cell signaling and as a component of lipoproteins. SM species differ in terms of fatty acid (FA) composition. However, no simple, rapid, quantitative assay for identifying different SM species has yet been reported. In this study, lipid hydrolase treatment and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) were used to identify serum SM species. METHODS Sera were collected from healthy young individuals. To identify SM species, sera were treated with phospholipase A2 and lipoprotein lipase, and lipids were extracted using the standard chloroform/methanol (2/1 v/v) method. RESULTS We detected 15 peaks from serum using MALDI-TOF MS, which were assigned to SM species bound with FA components ranging from C15:0 to C24:2. The most prominent serum SM species was SM [C16:0], which accounted for approximately 26% of serum SM. Some SM species contained an odd-carbon FA (C15, C21, and C23), and these accounted for approximately 4% of serum SM. The reproducibility of major SM species within and between application positions on MS-sample plate was CV=3.0%-7.9% and CV=3.1%-6.8%, respectively. The concentration and dilution ratio were linearly related. The SM species composition of 10 healthy young subjects showed a similar profile. CONCLUSIONS We developed a rapid, and quantitative method for identifying serum SM species using lipid hydrolase treatment and MALDI-TOF MS. This method will be suitable for clinical laboratory studies to examine the associations between SM species and disease states.

Abstract
Plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) comprises a heterogeneous family of lipoprotein species, differing in surface charge, size and lipid and protein compositions. While HDL cholesterol (C) mass is a strong, graded and coherent biomarker of cardiovascular risk, genetic and clinical trial data suggest that the simple measurement of HDL-C may not be causal in preventing atherosclerosis nor reflect HDL functionality. Indeed, the measurement of HDL-C may be a biomarker of cardiovascular health. To assess the issue of HDL function as a potential therapeutic target, robust and simple analytical methods are required. The complex pleiotropic effects of HDL make the development of a single measurement challenging. Development of laboratory assays that accurately HDL function must be developed validated and brought to high-throughput for clinical purposes. This review discusses the limitations of current laboratory technologies for methods that separate and quantify HDL and potential application to predict CVD, with an emphasis on emergent approaches as potential biomarkers in clinical practice.

Abstract
The search for model bioassay systems indicating activation of different toxicological signaling pathways is one of the paramount goals of modern toxicology. Especially coexposure scenarios need to be investigated with respect to synergistic and interdependent effects for the activation of toxicological signaling pathways. The present study introduces an experimental in vitro model system for nontoxic and low-dose coexposures of human mammary carcinoma MCF-7 cells against polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) such as benzo[a]pyrene (BP) and heavy metals such as cadmium. For the first time, a multivariate model that identifies 18 metabolic biomarkers has been shown to be sufficient to separate BP-treated cells from coexposed or control cells. A "toxicological pathway color code model" is introduced to visualize the results. Different biomarker subsets can be associated with specific HER2 signaling steps. A tiered cascade biomarker approach is proposed that could be used to identify profiles associated with tumorigenic potency of environmental toxicants in coexposure scenarios, including possible synergistic or additive effects.

Abstract
The low abundance of angiotensin peptides in biological tissues such as the kidney cortex, adipose tissue, urine and plasma makes their detection and quantification a challenge. A few available methods used to quantify these peptides involve lengthy processes of sample preparation and are hardly quantitative. Here, we report a mass spectrometry approach for quantifying angiotensin peptides [Ang II, Ang-(1-7)] in the kidney cortex, epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT), urine and plasma of male mice. Tissue homogenates, urine and plasma samples were solid-phase extracted with C18 Sep-Pak cartridges and eluted off proteinaceous compounds. These extracted peptide samples were separated on C18 column with a linear acetonitrile gradient and detected by Q-ToF mass analyzer in ESI+-MS ion mode based on their retention time, accurate mass measurement of peptides, the isotope pattern of doubly charged molecular ion, and quantitation of peak area (or ion count) when referencing to the angiotensin peptide standards. The lower limit of quantitation for each angiotensin peptide was 10 pgmg-1 with the percent recovery at 100.6%. The intra-batch precision for Ang-(1-7) and Ang II were 24.0 and 12.7%, accuracy 84.0-123.0% and 100.2-116.0% respectively. Using this method, we determined the levels of Ang II and Ang-(1-7) in the kidney cortex, eWAT, urine and plasma. Quantification of angiotensin peptides could help target subtle therapeutics changes against pathophysiological conditions such as obesity, kidney disease and hypertension.

Validation of homogeneous assays for HDL-cholesterol using fresh samples from healthy and diseased subjects. Atherosclerosis 2014; 233:253-9. [PMID: 24529153 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2013.12.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2013] [Revised: 12/09/2013] [Accepted: 12/13/2013] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) is a negative risk factor for cardiovascular events. Although several homogeneous HDL-C assays are available, their accuracy has not been validated, particularly in subjects with disease. We aimed to clarify whether HDL-C concentrations measured by homogeneous assays [HDL-C (H)] agree with those determined by the reference measurement procedures [HDL-C (RMP)] using ultracentrifugation and precipitation with heparin-manganese reagent in fresh clinical samples. METHODS HDL-C concentrations in samples from 48 healthy subjects and 119 subjects with disease were determined using 12 homogeneous assays and RMPs. RESULTS All reagents showed excellent intra- and inter-assay CVs (<2.23%) for two pooled sera. Furthermore, the mean bias was within ± 1.0% in nine reagents using samples from healthy subjects and in eight reagents using samples from subjects with disease. In a single HDL-C (H) determination, the total error requirement of the National Cholesterol Education Program (95% of results < 13%) was fulfilled in nine reagents using samples from healthy subjects and six reagents in those from subjects with disease. Error component analysis revealed that only one reagent exceeded ± 10% total error in samples from healthy subjects, whereas four reagents exceeded this error in samples from subjects with disease. Correlations between HDL-C (H) and HDL-C (RMP) revealed that the slopes were within 1.00 ± 0.06 in six reagents in healthy subjects, and eight reagents in subjects with disease. CONCLUSIONS Except for three reagents, HDL-C (H) agrees well with HDL-C (RMP) in subjects with common disease, but not in those with extremely low HDL-C or abnormal HDL composition.

Abstract
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels are an inverse risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, and sphingomyelin (SM) is the second most abundant phospholipid component and the major sphingolipid in HDL. Considering the marked presence of SM, the present review has focused on the current knowledge about this phospholipid by addressing its variable distribution among HDL lipoparticles, how they acquire this phospholipid, and the important role that SM plays in regulating their fluidity and cholesterol efflux from different cells. In addition, plasma enzymes involved in HDL metabolism such as lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase or phospholipid transfer protein are inhibited by HDL SM content. Likewise, HDL SM levels are influenced by dietary maneuvers (source of protein or fat), drugs (statins or diuretics) and modified in diseases such as diabetes, renal failure or Niemann-Pick disease. Furthermore, increased levels of HDL SM have been shown to be an inverse risk factor for coronary heart disease. The complexity of SM species, described using new lipidomic methodologies, and their distribution in different HDL particles under many experimental conditions are promising avenues for further research in the future.

Abstract
This report details the lipid composition of nascent HDL (nHDL) particles formed by the action of the ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) on apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I). nHDL particles of different size (average diameters of ∼ 12, 10, 7.5, and <6 nm) and composition were purified by size-exclusion chromatography. Electron microscopy suggested that the nHDL were mostly spheroidal. The proportions of the principal nHDL lipids, free cholesterol, glycerophosphocholine, and sphingomyelin were similar to that of lipid rafts, suggesting that the lipid originated from a raft-like region of the cell. Smaller amounts of glucosylceramides, cholesteryl esters, and other glycerophospholipid classes were also present. The largest particles, ∼ 12 nm and 10 nm diameter, contained ∼ 43% free cholesterol, 2-3% cholesteryl ester, and three apoA-I molecules. Using chemical cross-linking chemistry combined with mass spectrometry, we found that three molecules of apoA-I in the ∼ 9-14 nm nHDL adopted a belt-like conformation. The smaller (7.5 nm diameter) spheroidal nHDL particles carried 30% free cholesterol and two molecules of apoA-I in a twisted, antiparallel, double-belt conformation. Overall, these new data offer fresh insights into the biogenesis and structural constraints involved in forming nascent HDL from ABCA1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impairment of acid sphingomyelinase (SMase) results in accumulation of sphingomyelin (SM) and cholesterol in late endosomes, the hallmarks of a lysosomal storage disease. OBJECTIVE We describe cellular lipid metabolism in fibroblasts from two patients with novel compound heterozygote mutations in the sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 1 (SMPD1) gene manifesting as Niemann-Pick disease type B (NPB) and demonstrate mechanisms to overcome the storage defect. METHODS Using biochemical assays and confocal microscopy, we provide evidence that accumulated lysosomal SM and cholesterol can be released by different treatments. RESULTS Defective SMase activity in these fibroblasts results in a 2.5-fold increased cellular mass of SM and cholesterol, increased de novo endogenous cholesterol synthesis, and decreased cholesterol esterification, demonstrating impaired intracellular cholesterol homeostasis. Depletion of exogenous addition of cholesterol for 24 hours or addition of the cholesterol acceptor apolipoprotein A-I are sufficient to restore normal homeostatic responses. In an effort to correct the lysosomal storage phenotype of NPB, we infected the fibroblasts with a lentivirus expressing the phosphotyrosine binding domain of the adapter protein GULP (PTB-GULP). We have previously shown that expression of PTB-GULP in Chinese hamster ovary cells promotes intracellular cholesterol trafficking and ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux. We find that expression of PTB-GULP in NPB fibroblasts results in increased ABCA1 expression, increased cellular cholesterol efflux and lysosomal cholesterol redistribution, independent of the impaired SMase and cholesterol presence. CONCLUSION We provide extensive functional characterization of a novel compound heterozygote mutation and provide a novel functional mechanism to overcome lysosomal storage disease defects.

Abstract
Lipoproteins are of fundamental importance for the lipid transport and cardiovascular disease. The function and metabolism of lipoproteins is intimately linked to the biophysical properties of their surface lipids. Although a number of disease associations were found for lipid species in plasma, only a few studies reported lipid profiles of lipoproteins. Here, we provide an overview of techniques for lipoprotein separation, methods for lipid species analysis based on electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) as well as data from recent lipidomic studies on lipoprotein fractions. We also discuss the different analytical strategies and how lipid profiling can expand our understanding of the biology and structures of lipoproteins.

Identification and quantification of phosphatidylcholines containing very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid in bovine and human retina using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. J Chromatogr A 2010; 1217:7738-48. [PMID: 21035124 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2010.10.039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 66] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2010] [Revised: 09/09/2010] [Accepted: 10/07/2010] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
The retina is one of the vertebrate tissues with the highest content in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). A large proportion of retinal phospholipids, especially those found in photoreceptor membranes, are dipolyunsaturated molecular species. Among them, dipolyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) molecular species are known to contain very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLC-PUFA) from the n-3 and n-6 series having 24-36 carbon atoms (C24-C36) and four to six double bonds. Recent interest in the role played by VLC-PUFA arose from the findings that a protein called elongation of very-long-chain fatty acids 4 (ELOVL4) is involved in their biosynthesis and that mutations in the ELOVL4 gene are associated with Stargardt-like macular dystrophy (STD3), a dominantly inherited juvenile macular degeneration leading to vision loss. The aim of the present study was to develop an HPLC-ESI-MS/MS method for the structural characterisation and the quantification of dipolyunsaturated PC molecular species containing VLC-PUFA and validate this methodology on retinas from bovines and human donors. Successful separation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylserine (PS), PC, lyso-phosphatidylcholine (LPC) and sphingomyelin (SM) was achieved using a silica gel column and a gradient of hexane/isopropanol/water containing ammonium formate as a mobile phase. A complete structural characterisation of intact phosphatidylcholine species was obtained by collision-induced dissociation (CID) in the negative mode. Fatty acid composition and distribution can be clearly assigned based on the intensity of sn-2/sn-1 fragment ions. The PC species were characterised on bovine retina, 28 of which were dipolyunsaturated PC species containing one VLC-PUFA (C24-C36) with three to six double bonds. VLC-PUFA was always in the sn-1 position while PUFA at the sn-2 position was exclusively docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6n-3). Most of these VLC-PUFA-containing dipolyunsaturated PCs were detected and quantified in human retinas. The quantitative analysis of the different PC molecular species was performed in the positive mode using precursor ion scanning of m/z 184 and 14:0/14:0-PC and 24:0/24:0-PC as internal standards. The relationship between the MS peak intensities of different PC species and their carbon chain length was included for calibration. The main compounds represented were those having VLC-PUFA with 32 carbon atoms (C32:3, C32:4, C32:5 and C32:6) and 34 carbon atoms (C34:3, C34:4, C34:5 and C34:6). Dipolyunsaturated PCs with 36:5 and 36:6 were detected but in smaller quantities. In conclusion, this new HPLC-ESI-MS/MS method is sensitive and specific enough to structurally characterise and quantify all molecular PC species, including those esterified with VLC-PUFA. This technique is valuable for a precise characterisation of PC molecular species containing VLC-PUFA in retina and may be useful for a better understanding of the pathogenesis of STD3.

Abstract
In respect of the manifold involvement of lipids in biochemical processes, the analysis of intact and underivatised lipids of body fluids as well as cell and tissue extracts is still a challenging task, if detailed molecular information is required. Therefore, the advantage of combined use of high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), mass spectrometry (MS), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy will be shown analyzing three different types of extracts of the ubiquitous membrane component phosphatidylcholine. At first, different reversed phase modifications were tested on phosphatidylcholines (PC) with the same effective carbon number (ECN) for their applicability in lipid analysis. The results were taken to improve the separation of three natural PC extract types and a new reversed phase (RP)-HPLC method was developed. The individual species were characterized by one- and two-dimensional NMR and positive or negative ion mode quadrupole time of flight (q-TOF)-MS as well as MS/MS techniques. Furthermore, ion suppression effects during electrospray ionisation (ESI), difficulties, limits, and advantages of the individual analytical techniques are addressed.

Abstract
The specifics of nascent HDL remodeling within the plasma compartment remain poorly understood. We developed an in vitro assay to monitor the lipid transfer between model nascent HDL (LpA-I) and plasma lipoproteins. Incubation of alpha-(125)I-LpA-I with plasma resulted in association of LpA-I with existing plasma HDL, whereas incubation with TD plasma or LDL resulted in conversion of alpha-(125)I-LpA-I to prebeta-HDL. To further investigate the dynamics of lipid transfer, nascent LpA-I were labeled with cell-derived [(3 )H]cholesterol (UC) or [(3)H]phosphatidylcholine (PC) and incubated with plasma at 37 degrees C. The majority of UC and PC were rapidly transferred to apolipoprotein B (apoB). Subsequently, UC was redistributed to HDL for esterification before being returned to apoB. The presence of a phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) stimulator or purified PLTP promoted PC transfer to apoB. Conversely, PC transfer was abolished in plasma from PLTP(-/-) mice. Injection of (125)I-LpA-I into rabbits resulted in a rapid size redistribution of (125)I-LpA-I. The majority of [(3)H]UC from labeled r(HDL) was esterified in vivo within HDL, whereas a minority was found in LDL. These data suggest that apoB plays a major role in nascent HDL remodeling by accepting their lipids and donating UC to the LCAT reaction. The finding that nascent particles were depleted of their lipids and remodeled in the presence of plasma lipoproteins raises questions about their stability and subsequent interaction with LCAT.

Abstract
We previously reported that human Niemann-Pick Disease type B (NPD-B) is associated with low HDL. In this study, we investigated the pathophysiology of this HDL deficiency by examining both HDL samples from NPD-B patients and nascent high density lipoprotein (LpA-I) generated by incubation of lipid-free apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) with NPD-B fibroblasts. Interestingly, both LpA-I and HDL isolated from patient plasma had a significant increase in sphingomyelin (SM) mass ( approximately 50-100%). Analysis of LCAT kinetics parameters (V(max) and K(m)) revealed that either LpA-I or plasma HDL from NPD-B, as well as reconstituted HDL enriched with SM, exhibited severely decreased LCAT-mediated cholesterol esterification. Importantly, we documented that SM enrichment of NPD-B LpA-I was not attributable to increased cellular mass transfer of SM or unesterified cholesterol to lipid-free apoA-I. Finally, we obtained evidence that the conditioned medium from HUVEC, THP-1, and normal fibroblasts, but not NPD-B fibroblasts, contained active secretory sphingomyelinase (S-SMase) that mediated the hydrolysis of [(3)H]SM-labeled LpA-I and HDL(3). Furthermore, expression of mutant SMase (DeltaR608) in CHO cells revealed that DeltaR608 was synthesized normally but had defective secretion and activity. Our data suggest that defective S-SMase in NPD leads to SM enrichment of HDL that impairs LCAT-mediated nascent HDL maturation and contributes to HDL deficiency. Thus, S-SMase and LCAT may act in concert and play a crucial role in the biogenesis and maturation of nascent HDL particles.
