[PMID: 37580206 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.117213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/16/2023]
Abstract
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) represents the primary cause of mortality among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). In this population, High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) particles exhibit abnormalities in number, composition, and function, culminating in diminished anti-atherosclerotic capabilities despite normal HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations. Hyperglycemic conditions contribute to these alterations in HDL kinetics, composition, and function, causing T2DM patients' HDL particles to exhibit decreased concentrations of diverse lipid species and proteins. Treatment of hyperglycemia has the potential to correct abnormal HDL particle attributes in T2DM; however, pharmacological interventions, including metformin and thiazolidinediones, yield inconsistent outcomes with respect to HDL-C concentrations and functionality. Despite numerous attempts with diverse drugs, pharmacologically augmenting HDL-C levels has not resulted in clinical benefits in mitigating ASCVD risk. In contrast, reducing Low Density Lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) via statins and ezetimibe has demonstrated significant efficacy in curtailing CVD risk among T2DM individuals. Promising results have been observed in animal models and early-phase trials utilizing recombinant HDL and Lecitin Cholesterol Acyl Transferase (LCAT) -enhancing agents, but the evaluation of their efficacy and safety in large-scale clinical trials is ongoing. While aberrant HDL metabolism constitutes a prevalent aspect of dyslipidemia in T2DM, HDL cholesterol concentrations and composition no longer offer valuable insights for informing therapeutic decisions. Nevertheless, HDL metabolism remains a critical research area in T2DM, necessitating further investigation to elucidate the role of HDL particles in the development of diabetes-associated complications.

Abstract
Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is elevated in the plasma of a subgroup of trauma patients with systemic hyperfibrinolysis. We hypothesize that apoA-I inhibits platelet activation and clot formation. The effects of apoA-I on human platelet activation and clot formation were assessed by whole blood thrombelastography (TEG), platelet aggregometry, P-selectin surface expression, microfluidic adhesion, and Akt phosphorylation. Mouse models of carotid artery thrombosis and pulmonary embolism were used to assess the effects of apoA-I in vivo. The ApoA-1 receptor was investigated with transgenic mice knockouts (KO) for the scavenger receptor class B member 1 (SR-BI). Compared to controls, exogenous human apoA-I inhibited arachidonic acid and collagen-mediated human and mouse platelet aggregation, decreased P-selectin surface expression and Akt activation, resulting in diminished clot strength and increased clot lysis by TEG. ApoA-I also decreased platelet aggregate size formed on a collagen surface under flow. In vivo, apoA-I delayed vessel occlusion in an arterial thrombosis model and conferred a survival advantage in a pulmonary embolism model. SR-BI KO mice significantly reduced apoA-I inhibition of platelet aggregation versus wild-type platelets. Exogenous human apoA-I inhibits platelet activation, decreases clot strength and stability, and protects mice from arterial and venous thrombosis via the SR-BI receptor.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW As both a cholesterol acceptor and carrier in the reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) pathway, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is putatively atheroprotective. However, current pharmacological therapies to increase plasma HDL cholesterol (HDL-c) concentration have paradoxically failed to prevent or reduce atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Given that free cholesterol (FC) transfer between surfaces of lipoproteins and cells is reversible, excess plasma FC can be transferred to the cells of peripheral tissue sites resulting in atherosclerosis. Here, we summarize potential mechanisms contributing to this paradox and highlight the role of excess free cholesterol (FC) bioavailability in atherosclerosis vs. atheroprotection. RECENT FINDINGS Recent findings have established a complex relationship between HDL-c concentration and atherosclerosis. Systemic scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1) knock out (KO) mice exhibit with increased diet-induced atherosclerosis despite having an elevated plasma HDL-c concentration compared to wild type (WT) mice. The greater bioavailability of HDL-FC in SR-B1 vs. WT mice is associated with a higher FC content in multiple cell types and tissue sites. These results suggest that dysfunctional HDL with high FC bioavailability is atheroprone despite high HDL-c concentration. Past oversimplification of HDL-c involvement in cholesterol transport has led to the failures in HDL targeted therapy. Evidence suggests that FC-mediated functionality of HDL is of higher importance than its quantity; as a result, deciphering the regulatory mechanisms by which HDL-FC bioavailability can induce atherosclerosis can have far-reaching clinical implications.

Abstract
High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) display endothelial protective effects. We tested the role of SR-BI, an HDL receptor expressed by endothelial cells, in the neuroprotective effects of HDLs using an experimental model of acute ischemic stroke. After transient intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO), control and endothelial SR-BI deficient mice were intravenously injected by HDLs or saline. Infarct volume and blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown were assessed 24 h post tMCAO. The potential of HDLs and the role of SR-BI to maintain the BBB integrity was assessed by using a human cellular model of BBB (hCMEC/D3 cell line) subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). HDL therapy limited the infarct volume and the BBB leakage in control mice relative to saline injection. Interestingly, these neuroprotective effects were thwarted by the deletion of SR-BI in endothelial cells and preserved in mice deficient for SR-BI in myeloid cells. In vitro studies revealed that HDLs can preserve the integrity of the BBB in OGD conditions, and that this effect was reduced by the SR-BI inhibitor, BLT-1. The protection of BBB integrity plays a pivotal role in HDL therapy of acute ischemic stroke. Our results show that this effect is partially mediated by the HDL receptor, SR-BI expressed by endothelial cells.

Abstract
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) is a multi-ligand membrane protein receptor that binds to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) under physiological conditions, promoting the selective uptake of cholesterol esters from HDL into cells. SR-BI also promotes the reverse transport of excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver, contributing to the synthesis of bile acids for excretion and the removal of excess cholesterol from the body, thereby lowering the cholesterol load and exerting anti-atherosclerotic effects. Studies in mice and humans have demonstrated that a functional defect of SR-BI can cause atherosclerotic lesions and cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Additionally, SR-BI in vascular endothelial cells promoted the deposition of low-density lipoprotein under the endothelium. Although SR-BI is widely expressed in various tissues and cell types throughout the body, its expression level and function vary accordingly. The present review focuses on the biological functions and mechanisms of SR-BI in regulating atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Adenosine analogues have high affinity and selectivity for adenosine receptors (AR), and exhibit anti-platelet activity. Plasma proteins play an important role in the regulation of platelet function and may influence the action of anti-platelet compounds. Little is known about the interactions of AR agonists with plasma proteins. This study investigates the interplay between AR agonists and plasma proteins and the consequences of those interactions. Surface plasmon resonance was employed together with molecular docking study to determine the binding kinetics of four selected ARagonists (PSB0777, Cl-Ado, MRE0094, UK432097) to several carrier proteins and to clarify the nature of these interactions. The influence of a whole plasma and of some plasma components on the effectiveness of ARagonists in the inhibition of platelet function was assessed by flow cytometry (platelet activation) and ELISA (platelet adhesion). Plasma proteins remarkably diminished the effectiveness of ARagonists in inhibiting platelet activation and adhesion in vitro. ARagonists were found to strongly bind to human serum albumin (HSA) and the protein components of lipoproteins - apolipoproteins; HSA was essential for the binding of water-soluble PSB0777, whereas apolipoproteins were needed for interactions with poorly-water soluble compounds such as UK432097 and MRE0094. In addition, HSA was shown to significantly reduce the effectiveness of PSB0777 in inhibiting ADP-induced platelet activation. In conclusion, HSA and lipoproteins are important carriers for ARagonists, which can affect pharmacodynamics of ARagonists used as platelet inhibitors.

Abstract
Dysfunctional high-density lipoprotein (d-HDL) in chronic kidney disease is known to have a change in composition towards an endothelial-damaging phenotype, amongst others, via the accumulation of symmetric dimethylarginine. The endothelial glycocalyx, a carbohydrate-rich layer lining the endothelial luminal surface, is a first line defense against vascular diseases including atherosclerosis. Here we conducted a translational, cross-sectional study to determine the role of symmetric dimethylarginine in d-HDL as a mediator of glycocalyx damage. Using confocal and atomic force microscopy, intact HDL from healthy donors was found to maintain the glycocalyx while isolated HDL from hemodialysis patients and exogenous symmetric dimethylarginine caused significant damage to the glycocalyx in endothelial cells in vitro in a dose-dependent manner. Symmetric dimethylarginine triggered glycocalyx deterioration via molecular pathways mediated by toll-like-receptor 2 and matrix metalloprotease-9. Corresponding intravital microscopy revealed that exogenous symmetric dimethylarginine and d-HDL from hemodialysis patients caused glycocalyx breakdown, which subsequently contributed to alterations in leukocyte rolling. Biologically effective HDL, which estimates the functionality of HDL, was calculated from circulating HDL-cholesterol and symmetric dimethylarginine, as described in the literature. Biologically effective HDL was the only parameter that could independently predict glycocalyx damage in vivo. Thus, our data suggest that symmetric dimethylarginine in d-HDL mediates glycocalyx breakdown in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
Objective- Continuous T-cell production from thymus is essential in replenishing naïve T-cell pool and maintaining optimal T-cell functions. However, the underlying mechanisms regulating the T-cell development in thymus remains largely unknown. Approach and Results- We identified SR-BI (scavenger receptor class B type 1), an HDL (high-density lipoprotein) receptor, as a novel modulator in T-cell development. We found that SR-BI deficiency in mice led to reduced thymus size and decreased T-cell production, which was accompanied by narrowed peripheral naïve T-cell pool. Further investigation revealed that SR-BI deficiency impaired progenitor thymic homing, causing a dramatic reduction in the percentage of earliest thymic progenitors, but did not affect other downstream T-cell developmental steps inside the thymus. As a result of the impaired progenitor thymic homing, SR-BI-deficient mice displayed delayed thymic regeneration postirradiation. Using a variety of experimental approaches, we revealed that the impaired T-cell development in SR-BI-deficient mice was not caused by hematopoietic SR-BI deficiency or SR-BI deficiency-induced hypercholesterolemia, but mainly attributed to the SR-BI deficiency in adrenal glands, as adrenal-specific SR-BI-deficient mice exhibited similar defects in T-cell development and thymic regeneration with SR-BI-deficient mice. Conclusions- This study demonstrates that SR-BI deficiency impaired T-cell development and delayed thymic regeneration by affecting progenitor thymic homing in mice, elucidating a previously unrecognized link between SR-BI and adaptive immunity.

Abstract
Modern society has changed its diet composition, transitioning to a higher intake of saturated fat with a 50% increase of cardiovascular risk (CVD). Within the context of increased CVD, there is an induction of a prothrombotic phenotype mainly due to increased platelet reactivity as well as decreased platelet response to inhibitors. Platelets maintain haemostasis through both blood components and endothelial cells that secrete inhibitory or stimulatory molecules to regulate thrombus formation. There exist a correlation between platelets' polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and the increase in platelet reactivity. The aim of this chapter is to review the metabolism of the main PUFAs involved in platelet function associated with the role that their enzyme-derived oxidized metabolites exert in platelet function and fate. Finally, how lipid metabolism in the organism affect platelet aggregation and activation and the pharmacological modulation of these processes will also be discussed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The human scavenger receptor class B type 1 (hSR-B1), which serves as a high affinity receptor for HDL, is expressed on platelet surface and mediates various anti-atherogenic functions. Based on the anti-thrombotic effect of HDL and the importance of HDL-SR-B1 in the formation of atherosclerotic plaque, the present study was aimed to investigate and compare the expression level of hSR-B1on platelets of CAD patients with that of normal controls. METHODS The expression of the hSR-B1 on platelets of 31 CAD patients with atherosclerotic plaque and 20 healthy controls were detected using flowcytometry and western blotting. Moreover, platelet function in response to the agonists was examined by aggregometry, and the lipid panel tests were assayed using chemistry autoanalyzer. RESULTS Our findings showed that the expression of hSR-B1 was significantly reduced on the surface of platelets from CAD patients with atherosclerotic disease, as compared with healthy controls (6/8% vs. 13/6%) (P < 0,001). Of particular of interest, we also found that the formation of aggregates after stimulation of the platelets with ADP was higher in patients with atherosclerotic disease than the controls; indicating an inverse relationship between hSR-B1 expression and the function of human platelets. CONCLUSION Taken together, the results of the present study raise the possibility that the measurement of hSR-B1 expression on human platelets may provide a valuable insight that reflects the status of RCT in patients with atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Almost 600 million people are predicted to have diabetes mellitus (DM) by 2035. Diabetic patients suffer from increased rates of microvascular and macrovascular complications, associated with dyslipidaemia, impaired angiogenic responses to ischaemia, accelerated atherosclerosis, and inflammation. Despite recent treatment advances, many diabetic patients remain refractory to current approaches, highlighting the need for alternative agents. There is emerging evidence that high-density lipoproteins (HDL) are able to rescue diabetes-related vascular complications through diverse mechanisms. Such protective functions of HDL, however, can be rendered dysfunctional within the pathological milieu of DM, triggering the development of vascular complications. HDL-modifying therapies remain controversial as many have had limited benefits on cardiovascular risk, although more recent trials are showing promise. This review will discuss the latest data from epidemiological, clinical, and pre-clinical studies demonstrating various roles for HDL in diabetes and its vascular complications that have the potential to facilitate its successful translation.

Abstract
Essentials HDL subclasses were studied in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). HDL2 from ACS patients have better antiplatelet potency than HDL from non ACS subjects. ACS remodels the antiplatelet properties of HDL subclasses. Oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids content of HDL is modified by ACS. SUMMARY Background Although HDLs have antithrombotic effects by reducing platelet activation, the relationship between HDL levels and the risk of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is unclear, as HDL particles are heterogeneous in composition and biological properties. Objective To characterize the effects of HDL2 and HDL3 subclasses from ACS patients and non-coronary artery disease (CAD) subjects on platelet activation. Methods We measured platelet aggregation and ex vivo thrombus formation, analyzed signaling pathways by flow cytometry, and performed a targeted lipidomics analysis on HDL subclasses. Results Analysis of human platelet aggregation in suspension, adhesion on von Willebrand factor and thrombus formation on collagen under arterial shear demonstrated that HDL2 from ACS patients had higher antiplatelet potency than HDL3 from ACS patients and HDL from non-CAD subjects. HDL binding to scavenger receptor class B type I was essential for this effect. A lipidomics analysis revealed that HDL2 from ACS patients had more oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). An inverse correlation between the concentrations of 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (9-HODE), 13-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-HODE), the eicosapentaenoic acid metabolite 18-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (18-HEPE) and hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid isomers in HDL2 and platelet aggregation was observed. This relationship was further demonstrated by the direct inhibitory effects of 18-HEPE, 9-HODE, 13-HODE, 17-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid and 14-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid on collagen-related peptide-induced platelet aggregation, indicating that oxidized PUFAs contribute to the antithrombotic effect of ACS HDL2. Conclusions Our data shed new light on the antiplatelet effects of HDL subclasses, and suggest physiological adaptation through the modulation of HDL properties in ACS patients that may limit their platelet-dependent thrombotic risk.

Abstract
Stored platelet concentrates (PLCs) for therapeutic purpose, develop a platelet storage lesion (PSL), characterized by impaired platelet (PLT) viability and function, platelet extracellular vesicle (PL-EV) release and profound lipidomic changes. Whereas oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) activates PLTs and promotes atherosclerosis, effects linked to oxidized high-density lipoprotein (oxHDL) are poorly characterized. PLCs from blood donors were treated with native (nHDL) or mildly oxidized HDL (moxHDL) for 5days under blood banking conditions. Flow cytometry, nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), aggregometry, immunoblot analysis and mass spectrometry were carried out to analyze PL-EV and platelet exosomes (PL-EX) release, PLT aggregation, protein expression, and PLT and plasma lipid composition. In comparison to total nHDL, moxHDL significantly decreased PL-EV release by -36% after 5days of PLT storage and partially reversed agonist-induced PLT aggregation. PL-EV release positively correlated with PLT aggregation. MoxHDL improved PLT membrane lipid homeostasis through enhanced uptake of lysophospholipids and their remodeling to corresponding phospholipid species. This also appeared for sphingomyelin (SM) and d18:0/d18:1 sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) at the expense of ceramide (Cer) and hexosylceramide (HexCer) leading to reduced Cer/S1P ratio as PLT-viability indicator. This membrane remodeling was associated with increased content of CD36 and maturation of scavenger receptor-B1 (SR-B1) protein in secreted PL-EVs. MoxHDL, more potently than nHDL, improves PLT-membrane lipid homeostasis, partially antagonizes PL-EV release and agonist-induced PLT aggregation. Altogether, this may be the result of more efficient phospho- and sphingolipid remodeling mediated by CD36 and SR-B1 in the absence of ABCA1 on PLTs. As in vitro supplement in PLCs, moxHDL has the potential to improve PLC quality and to prolong storage.

Abstract
Low plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are associated with increased risks of coronary heart disease. HDL mediates cholesterol efflux from macrophages for reverse transport to the liver and elicits many anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative activities which are potentially anti-atherogenic. Nevertheless, HDL has not been successfully targeted by drugs for prevention or treatment of cardiovascular diseases. One potential reason is the targeting of HDL cholesterol which does not capture the structural and functional complexity of HDL particles. Hundreds of lipid species and dozens of proteins as well as several microRNAs have been identified in HDL. This physiological heterogeneity is further increased in pathologic conditions due to additional quantitative and qualitative molecular changes of HDL components which have been associated with both loss of physiological function and gain of pathologic dysfunction. This structural and functional complexity of HDL has prevented clear assignments of molecules to the functions of normal HDL and dysfunctions of pathologic HDL. Systematic analyses of structure-function relationships of HDL-associated molecules and their modifications are needed to test the different components and functions of HDL for their relative contribution in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The derived biomarkers and targets may eventually help to exploit HDL for treatment and diagnostics of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for atherothrombotic disease, largely attributed to its impact on atherosclerotic lesional cells such as macrophages. Platelets are involved in immunity and inflammation and impact atherogenesis, primarily by modulating immune and inflammatory effector cells. There is evidence that hypercholesterolemia increases the risk of atherosclerosis and thrombosis by modulating platelet biogenesis and activity. This review highlights recent findings on the impact of aberrant cholesterol metabolism on platelet biogenesis and activity and their relevance in atherosclerosis and thrombosis.

Abstract
Reconstituted forms of HDL (rHDL) are under development for infusion as a therapeutic approach to attenuate atherosclerotic vascular disease and to reduce cardiovascular risk following acute coronary syndrome and ischemic stroke. Currently available rHDL formulations developed for clinical use contain apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and one of the major lipid components of HDL, either phosphatidylcholine or sphingomyelin. Recent data have established that quantitatively minor molecular constituents of HDL particles can strongly influence their anti-atherogenic functionality. Novel rHDL formulations displaying enhanced biological activities, including cellular cholesterol efflux, may therefore offer promising prospects for the development of HDL-based, anti-atherosclerotic therapies. Indeed, recent structural and functional data identify phosphatidylserine as a bioactive component of HDL; the content of phosphatidylserine in HDL particles displays positive correlations with all metrics of their functionality. This review summarizes current knowledge of structure-function relationships in rHDL formulations, with a focus on phosphatidylserine and other negatively-charged phospholipids. Mechanisms potentially underlying the atheroprotective role of these lipids are discussed and their potential for the development of HDL-based therapies highlighted.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a leading underlying factor in cardiovascular disease and stroke, important causes of morbidity and mortality across the globe. Abundant epidemiological studies demonstrate that high levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) are associated with reduced risk of atherosclerosis and preclinical, animal model studies demonstrate that this association is causative. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the protective effects of HDL will allow more strategic approaches to development of HDL based therapeutics. Recent evidence suggests that an important aspect of the ability of HDL to protect against atherosclerosis is its ability to trigger signaling responses in a variety of target cells including endothelial cells and macrophages in the vessel wall. These signaling responses require the HDL receptor, scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1), an adaptor protein (PDZK1) that binds to the cytosolic C terminus of SR-B1, Akt1 activation and (at least in endothelial cells) activation of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS). Mouse models of atherosclerosis, exemplified by apolipoprotein E or low density lipoprotein receptor gene inactivated mice (apoE or LDLR KO) develop atherosclerosis in their aortas but appear generally resistant to coronary artery atherosclerosis. On the other hand, inactivation of each of the components of HDL signaling (above) in either apoE or LDLR KO mice renders them susceptible to extensive coronary artery atherosclerosis suggesting that HDL signaling may play an important role in protection against coronary artery disease.

Abstract
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is a lipid and protein complex that consists of apolipoproteins and lower level HDL-associated enzymes. HDL dysfunction is a factor in atherosclerosis and decreases patient survival. Mass spectrometry- (MS-) based proteomics provides a high throughput approach for analyzing the composition and modifications of complex HDL proteins in diseases. HDL can be separated according to size, surface charge, electronegativity, or apoprotein composition. MS-based proteomics on subfractionated HDL then allows investigation of lipoprotein roles in diseases. Herein, we review recent developments in MS-based quantitative proteomic techniques, HDL proteomics and lipoprotein modifications in diseases, and HDL subfractionation studies. We also discuss future directions and perspectives in MS-based proteomics on HDL.

Abstract
High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) exert many beneficial effects which may help to protect against the development or progression of atherosclerosis or even facilitate lesion regression. These activities include promoting cellular cholesterol efflux, protecting low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) from modification, preserving endothelial function, as well as anti-inflammatory and antithrombotic effects. However, questions remain about the relative importance of these activities for atheroprotection. Furthermore, the many molecules (both lipids and proteins) associated with HDLs exert both distinct and overlapping activities, which may be compromised by inflammatory conditions, resulting in either loss of function or even gain of dysfunction. This complexity of HDL functionality has so far precluded elucidation of distinct structure-function relationships for HDL or its components. A better understanding of HDL metabolism and structure-function relationships is therefore crucial to exploit HDLs and its associated components and cellular pathways as potential targets for anti-atherosclerotic therapies and diagnostic markers.

Abstract
Numerous epidemiologic studies revealed that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is an important risk factor for coronary heart disease. There are several well-documented HDL functions such as reversed cholesterol transport, inhibition of inflammation, or inhibition of platelet activation that may account for the atheroprotective effects of this lipoprotein. Mechanistically, these functions are carried out by a direct interaction of HDL particle or its components with receptors localized on the cell surface followed by generation of intracellular signals. Several HDL-associated receptor ligands such as apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) or sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) have been identified in addition to HDL holoparticles, which interact with surface receptors such as ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1); S1P receptor types 1, 2, and 3 (S1P1, S1P2, and S1P3); or scavenger receptor type I (SR-BI) and activate intracellular signaling cascades encompassing kinases, phospholipases, trimeric and small G-proteins, and cytoskeletal proteins such as actin or junctional protein such as connexin43. In addition, depletion of plasma cell cholesterol mediated by ABCA1, ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1), or SR-BI was demonstrated to indirectly inhibit signaling over proinflammatory or proliferation-stimulating receptors such as Toll-like or growth factor receptors. The present review summarizes the current knowledge regarding the HDL-induced signal transduction and its relevance to athero- and cardioprotective effects as well as other physiological effects exerted by HDL.

Abstract
The HDL receptor scavenger receptor, class B type I (SR-BI) controls the structure and fate of plasma HDL. Female SR-BI KO mice are infertile, apparently because of their abnormal cholesterol-enriched HDL particles. We examined the growth and meiotic progression of SR-BI KO oocytes and found that they underwent normal germinal vesicle breakdown; however, SR-BI KO eggs, which had accumulated excess cholesterol in vivo, spontaneously activated, and they escaped metaphase II (MII) arrest and progressed to pronuclear, MIII, and anaphase/telophase III stages. Eggs from fertile WT mice were activated when loaded in vitro with excess cholesterol by a cholesterol/methyl-β-cyclodextrin complex, phenocopying SR-BI KO oocytes. In vitro cholesterol loading of eggs induced reduction in maturation promoting factor and MAPK activities, elevation of intracellular calcium, extrusion of a second polar body, and progression to meiotic stages beyond MII. These results suggest that the infertility of SR-BI KO females is caused, at least in part, by excess cholesterol in eggs inducing premature activation and that cholesterol can activate WT mouse eggs to escape from MII arrest. Analysis of SR-BI KO female infertility raises the possibility that abnormalities in cholesterol metabolism might underlie some cases of human female infertility of unknown etiology.

High-density lipoprotein 3 and apolipoprotein A-I alleviate platelet storage lesion and release of platelet extracellular vesicles. Transfusion 2014; 54:2301-14. [PMID: 24912423 DOI: 10.1111/trf.12640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2013] [Revised: 01/27/2014] [Accepted: 01/29/2014] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stored platelet (PLT) concentrates (PLCs) for transfusion develop a PLT storage lesion (PSL), decreasing PLT viability and function with profound lipidomic changes and PLT extracellular vesicle (PL-EV) release. High-density lipoprotein 3 (HDL3 ) improves PLT homeostasis through silencing effects on PLT activation in vivo. This prompted us to investigate HDL3 and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) as PSL-antagonizing agents. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Healthy donor PLCs were split into low-volume standard PLC storage bags and incubated with native (n)HDL3 or apoA-I from plasma ethanol fractionation (precipitate IV) for 5 days under standard blood banking conditions. Flow cytometry, Born aggregometry, and lipid mass spectrometry were carried out to analyze PL-EV release, PLT aggregation, agonist-induced PLT surface marker expression, and PLT and plasma lipid compositions. RESULTS Compared to control, added nHDL3 and apoA-I significantly reduced PL-EV release by up to -62% during 5 days, correlating with the added apoA-I concentration. At the lipid level, nHDL3 and apoA-I antagonized PLT lipid loss (+12%) and decreased cholesteryl ester (CE)/free cholesterol (FC) ratios (-69%), whereas in plasma polyunsaturated/saturated CE ratios increased (+3%) and CE 16:0/20:4 ratios decreased (-5%). Administration of nHDL3 increased PLT bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate/phosphatidylglycerol (+102%) and phosphatidic acid/lysophosphatidic acid (+255%) ratios and improved thrombin receptor-activating peptide 6-induced PLT aggregation (+5%). CONCLUSION nHDL3 and apoA-I improve PLT membrane homeostasis and intracellular lipid processing and increase CE efflux, antagonizing PSL-related reduction in PLT viability and function and PL-EV release. We suggest uptake and catabolism of nHDL3 into the PLT open canalicular system. As supplement in PLCs, nHDL3 or apoA-I from Fraction IV of plasma ethanol fractionation have the potential to improve PLC quality to prolong storage.

Abstract
Objective—
Platelets abundantly express the membrane receptor CD36 and store its ligand thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) in the α-granules. We investigated whether released TSP1 can support platelet adhesion and thrombus formation via interaction with CD36.
Approach and Results—
Mouse platelets deficient in CD36 showed reduced adhesion to TSP1 and subsequent phosphatidylserine expression. Deficiency in either CD36 or TSP1 resulted in markedly increased dissolution of thrombi formed on collagen, although thrombus buildup was unchanged. In mesenteric vessels in vivo, deficiency in CD36 prolonged the time to occlusion and enhanced embolization, which was in agreement with earlier observations in TSP1-deficient mice. Thrombi formed using wild-type blood stained positively for secreted TSP1. Releasate from wild-type but not from TSP1-deficient platelets enhanced platelet activation, phosphatidylserine expression, and thrombus formation on collagen. The enhancement was dependent on CD36 because it was without effect on thrombus formation by CD36-deficient platelets.
Conclusions—
These results demonstrate an anchoring role of platelet-released TSP1 via CD36 in platelet adhesion and collagen-dependent thrombus stabilization. Thus, the TSP1–CD36 tandem is another platelet ligand–receptor axis contributing to the maintenance of a stable thrombus.

Abstract
Recent studies revealed that scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI or Scarb1) plays a critical protective role in sepsis. However, the mechanisms underlying this protection remain largely unknown. In this study, using Scarb1(I179N) mice, a mouse model specifically deficient in hepatic SR-BI, we report that hepatic SR-BI protects against cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced sepsis as shown by 75% fatality in Scarb1(I179N) mice, but only 21% fatality in C57BL/6J control mice. The increase in fatality in Scarb1(I179N) mice was associated with an exacerbated inflammatory cytokine production. Further study demonstrated that hepatic SR-BI exerts its protection against sepsis through its role in promoting LPS clearance without affecting the inflammatory response in macrophages, the glucocorticoid production in adrenal glands, the leukocyte recruitment to peritoneum or the bacterial clearance in liver. Our findings reveal hepatic SR-BI as a critical protective factor in sepsis and point out that promoting hepatic SR-BI-mediated LPS clearance may provide a therapeutic approach for sepsis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize the recent findings about the roles of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) in immunity and discuss the underlying mechanisms by which SR-BI prevents immune dysfunctions. RECENT FINDINGS SR-BI is well known as a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor playing key roles in HDL metabolism and in protection against atherosclerosis. Recent studies have indicated that SR-BI is also an essential modulator in immunity. SR-BI deficiency in mice causes immune dysfunctions, including increased atherosclerosis, elevated susceptibility to sepsis, impaired lymphocyte homeostasis, and autoimmune disorders. SR-BI exerts its protective roles through a variety of HDL-dependent and HDL-independent mechanisms. SR-BI is also involved in hepatitis C virus cell entry. A deficiency of SR-BI in humanized mice has been shown to decrease hepatitis C virus infectivity. SUMMARY SR-BI regulates immunity via multiple mechanisms and its deficiency causes numerous diseases. A comprehensive understanding of the roles of SR-BI in protection against immune dysfunctions may provide a therapeutic target for intervention against its associated diseases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are believed to progressively degrade the collagenous components of the protective fibrous cap, leading to atherosclerotic plaque rupture or destabilization. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) enhances the release of CD147, known as the extracellular MMP inducer, from coronary smooth muscle cells. However, whether ox-LDL can induce platelet CD147 expression is unknown. Therefore, we investigated the influence of ox-LDL and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) on CD147 expression on human platelets. MATERIALS AND METHODS Washed platelets were incubated with ox-LDL (or native LDL) and HDL or anti-LOX-1 monoclonal antibody prior to incubation with ox-LDL. In parallel, buffer (PBS) was added to washed platelets as a control. The expression levels of CD147, CD62P, CD63 and Annexin V were assessed by flow cytometry, and soluble CD147 from the platelets was assessed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Laser scanning microscopy (LSM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to visualize the morphological changes and granule release, respectively, from the platelets. RESULTS Platelets treated with ox-LDL exhibited a significant increase in the expression of CD147 (or Annexin V), followed by increases in CD62P and CD63, compared with the control group. In contrast, HDL or anti-LOX-1 monoclonal antibody decreased these effects. The expression of soluble CD147 increased as the concentration of ox-LDL used to treat the platelets increased. After exposure to ox-LDL, morphological changes and granule release in the platelets were visualized by LSM and TEM. Additionally, the TEM revealed that HDL inhibits alpha-granule release. CONCLUSIONS In platelets, ox-LDL stimulates the release of CD147 via binding to LOX-1, whereas HDL inhibits this effect. This finding could provide new insights concerning the influence of ox-LDL and HDL on plaque stability by the up-regulation of CD147 on platelets.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE High-density lipoprotein (HDL) displays multiple atheroprotective activities and is highly heterogeneous in structure, composition, and function; the molecular determinants of atheroprotective functions of HDL are incompletely understood. Because phospholipids represent a major bioactive lipid component of HDL, we characterized the phosphosphingolipidome of major normolipidemic HDL subpopulations and related it to HDL functionality. APPROACH AND RESULTS Using an original liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry methodology for phospholipid and sphingolipid profiling, 162 individual molecular lipid species were quantified across the 9 lipid subclasses, in the order of decreasing abundance, phosphatidylcholine>sphingomyelin>lysophosphatidylcholine>phosphatidylethanolamine>phosphatidylinositol>ceramide>phosphatidylserine>phosphatidylglycerol>phosphatidic acid. When data were expressed relative to total lipid, the contents of lysophosphatidylcholine and of negatively charged phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid increased progressively with increase in hydrated density of HDL, whereas the proportions of sphingomyelin and ceramide decreased. Key biological activities of HDL subpopulations, notably cholesterol efflux capacity from human THP-1 macrophages, antioxidative activity toward low-density lipoprotein oxidation, antithrombotic activity in human platelets, cell-free anti-inflammatory activity, and antiapoptotic activity in endothelial cells, were predominantly associated with small, dense, protein-rich HDL3. The biological activities of HDL particles were strongly intercorrelated, exhibiting significant correlations with multiple components of the HDL phosphosphingolipidome. Specifically, the content of phosphatidylserine revealed positive correlations with all metrics of HDL functionality, reflecting enrichment of phosphatidylserine in small, dense HDL3. CONCLUSIONS Our structure-function analysis thereby reveals that the HDL lipidome may strongly affect atheroprotective functionality.

Abstract
HDL removes excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues and delivers it to the liver and steroidogenic tissues via selective lipid uptake without catabolism of the HDL particle itself. In addition, endocytosis of HDL holo-particles has been debated for nearly 40years. However, neither the connection between HDL endocytosis and selective lipid uptake, nor the physiological relevance of HDL uptake has been delineated clearly. This review will focus on HDL endocytosis and resecretion and its relation to cholesterol transfer. We will discuss the role of HDL endocytosis in maintaining cholesterol homeostasis in tissues and cell types involved in atherosclerosis, focusing on liver, macrophages and endothelium. We will critically summarize the current knowledge on the receptors mediating HDL endocytosis including SR-BI, F1-ATPase and CD36 and on intracellular HDL transport routes. Dependent on the tissue, HDL is either resecreted (retro-endocytosis) or degraded after endocytosis. Finally, findings on HDL transcytosis across the endothelial barrier will be summarized. We suggest that HDL endocytosis and resecretion is a rather redundant pathway under physiologic conditions. In case of disturbed lipid metabolism, however, HDL retro-endocytosis represents an alternative pathway that enables tissues to maintain cellular cholesterol homeostasis.

Native high density lipoproteins (HDL) interfere with platelet activation induced by oxidized low density lipoproteins (OxLDL). Int J Mol Sci 2013; 14:10107-21.

Abstract
Platelets and lipoproteins play a crucial role in atherogenesis, in part by their ability to modulate inflammation and oxidative stress. While oxidized low density lipoproteins (OxLDL) play a central role in the development of this disease, high density lipoproteins (HDL) represent an atheroprotective factor of utmost importance. As platelet function is remarkably sensitive to the influence of plasma lipoproteins, it was the aim of this study to clarify if HDL are able to counteract the stimulating effects of OxLDL with special emphasis on aspects of platelet function that are relevant to inflammation. Therefore, HDL were tested for their ability to interfere with pro-thrombotic and pro-inflammatory aspects of platelet function. We are able to show that HDL significantly impaired OxLDL-induced platelet aggregation and adhesion. In gel-filtered platelets, HDL decreased both the formation of reactive oxygen species and CD40L expression. Furthermore, HDL strongly interfered with OxLDL-induced formation of platelet-neutrophil aggregates in whole blood, suggesting that platelets represent a relevant and sensitive target for HDL. The finding that HDL effectively competed with the binding of OxLDL to the platelet surface might contribute to their atheroprotective and antithrombotic properties.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The athero-protective role of scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) is primarily attributed to its ability to selectively transfer cholesteryl esters from high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) to the liver during reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). In this review, we highlight recent findings that reveal the impact of SR-BI on lipid levels and cardiovascular disease in humans. Moreover, additional responsibilities of SR-BI in modulating adrenal and platelet function, as well as female fertility in humans, are discussed. RECENT FINDINGS Heterozygote carriers of P297S, S112F and T175A-mutant SR-BI receptors were identified in patients with high HDL-cholesterol levels. HDL from P297S-SR-BI carriers was unable to mediate macrophage cholesterol efflux, whereas hepatocytes expressing P297S-SR-BI were unable to mediate the selective uptake of HDL-cholesteryl esters. S112F and T175A-mutant receptors exhibited similar impaired cholesterol transport functions in vitro. Reduced SR-BI function in P297S carriers was also associated with decreased steroidogenesis and altered platelet function. Further, human population studies identified SCARB1 variants associated with female infertility. SUMMARY Identification of SR-BI variants confirms the key role of this receptor in influencing lipid levels and RCT in humans. A deeper understanding of the contributions of SR-BI to steroidogenesis, platelet function and fertility is required in light of exploration of HDL-raising therapies aimed at reducing cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL) are small, dense, protein-rich particles compared with other lipoprotein classes; roughly half of total HDL mass is accounted for by lipid components. Phospholipids predominate in the HDL lipidome, accounting for 40-60% of total lipid, with lesser proportions of cholesteryl esters (30-40%), triglycerides (5-12%), and free cholesterol (5-10%). Lipidomic approaches have provided initial insights into the HDL lipidome with identification of over 200 individual molecular lipids species in normolipidemic HDL. Plasma HDL particles, however, reveal high levels of structural, compositional, and functional heterogeneity. Establishing direct relationships between HDL structure, composition, and atheroprotective functions bears the potential to identify clinically relevant HDL subpopulations. Furthermore, development of HDL-based therapies designed to target beneficial subspecies within the circulating HDL pool can be facilitated using this approach. HDL lipidomics can equally contribute to the identification of biomarkers of both normal and deficient HDL functionality, which may prove useful as biomarkers of cardiovascular risk. However, numerous technical issues remain to be addressed in order to make such developments possible. With all technical questions resolved, quantitative analysis of the molecular components of the HDL lipidome will contribute to expand our knowledge of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

Abstract
There is evidence that high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) may regulate platelet function, but disparate results exist regarding the effects of oxidized HDLs on platelets. The objective of our study was to determine the role of in vivo oxidized HDLs on platelet aggregation. Platelet aggregation and redox status were investigated in 5 patients with abetalipoproteinemia (ABLP) or homozygous hypobetalipoproteinemia, two rare metabolic diseases characterized by the absence of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins, compared to 5 control subjects. Platelets isolated from plasma of patients with ABLP aggregated 4 to 10 times more than control platelets, depending on the agonist. By contrast, no differences in the extent of platelet aggregation were observed between ABLP platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and control PRP, suggesting the presence of a protective factor in ABLP plasma. ABLP HDLs inhibited agonist-induced platelet aggregation by binding to SR-BI, while control HDLs had no effect. On the other hand, lipoprotein-deficient plasma from patients with ABLP did not inhibit platelet aggregation. Severe oxidative stress was evidenced in patients with ABLP. Compared to control HDLs, ABLP HDLs showed a 40% decrease of α-tocopherol and an 11-fold increased malondialdehyde concentration. These results demonstrate that in vivo oxidized HDLs do not lose their antiaggregatory properties despite oxidation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review highlights the diverse roles of the high-affinity HDL receptor scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI) in the modulation of global cholesterol homeostasis and vascular cell function, and the potential implications of these processes in atherosclerosis. RECENT FINDINGS SR-BI in the liver plays a critical role in reverse cholesterol transport and it dramatically impacts the characteristics of the HDL particle, and through reverse cholesterol transport it promotes an antiatherogenic lipid environment in the vascular wall. SR-BI in macrophages may influence their inflammatory phenotype. In endothelial cells, SR-BI mediates HDL-induced endothelial nitric oxide synthase activation and proliferation and migration, and in platelets SR-BI may be prothrombotic in the setting of dyslipidemia. Several polymorphisms of SR-BI have been reported in humans that influence receptor expression or function. SUMMARY In addition to regulating global lipid metabolism, SR-BI influences the functions of a variety of vascular cells relevant to atherosclerosis. Studies of SR-BI genetics in humans partially support the conclusions drawn from experimental models. However, because of the multiple functions of SR-BI, the diversity of cell types in which it is expressed, and the influence of the receptor on the characteristics of its own ligand, our understanding of the biology of the receptor is just emerging.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW HDL cholesterol concentration is inversely correlated with cardiovascular disease and has a wide range of functions involved in many systems. The purpose of this review is to summarize HDL functionality, its relevance to atherosclerosis and factors affecting HDL functions. RECENT FINDINGS The contribution of HDL to reverse cholesterol transport may not be as great as first envisaged. However, it still plays an important role in cholesterol efflux from peripheral tissues. The capacity of HDL to promote cellular cholesterol efflux in an ex-vivo model has been reported to correlate more closely with carotid intima-media thickness than HDL cholesterol concentration. Recently, a variety of other functions of HDL have been described including antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiglycation, anti-inflammatory, nitric oxide--inducing, antithrombotic and antiatherogenic activity and immune modulation as well as a potential role in glucose homeostasis, diabetes pathophysiology and complications. SUMMARY HDL has a wide range of functions some of which are independent of its cholesterol content. Its cargo of apolipoproteins, various proteins and phospholipids contributes most to its various functions. These functions are affected by a number of genetic, physiological and pathological factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Scavenger receptor class B type I (BI) is primarily known for its role in the selective uptake of cholesteryl esters from HDL, the final step in reverse cholesterol transport. Here, we will discuss findings that highlight the recently established novel link between scavenger receptor BI and adrenal and platelet function. RECENT FINDINGS Human heterozygote carriers of a functional P297S mutation in the scavenger receptor BI gene show an attenuated adrenal glucocorticoid output and an altered platelet function. Scavenger receptor BI knockout mice lack adrenal cholesteryl ester stores and suffer from primary adrenal glucocorticoid insufficiency, indicating that adrenal HDL cholesteryl ester uptake by scavenger receptor BI is needed for generating the cholesterol pool used for steroidogenesis. Scavenger receptor BI knockout mice exhibit thrombocytopenia, an impaired platelet aggregation response, and higher susceptibility for arterial thrombosis. Bone marrow-specific deletion of scavenger receptor BI in mice indicates that scavenger receptor BI indirectly modulates platelet function through regulation of plasma cholesterol levels. SUMMARY Scavenger receptor BI is not merely a crucial mediator of reverse cholesterol transport, but rather acts as a multipurpose player in cholesterol and steroid metabolism. Further understanding of the contribution of scavenger receptor BI's roles in adrenal steroidogenesis and platelet function to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis will hopefully show its potential as a therapeutic target for cardiovascular benefit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The paraoxonase activity of the enzyme paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) may significantly influence clopidogrel's antiplatelet and clinical efficacy as a result of its involvement in the clopidogrel biotransformation to the pharmacologically active thiol metabolite. We evaluated the possible relationships of HDL levels as well as PON-1 activities and the Q192R genotype with clopidogrel's antiplatelet efficacy in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. METHODS AND RESULTS The platelet aggregation, P-selectin expression and platelet/leukocyte conjugates as well as the clopidogrel response variability (evaluated by the VASP phosphorylation test and expressed as platelet reactivity index, PRI) were assessed in 74 ACS patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in relation to the PON-1 Q192R genotype and to serum HDL-cholesterol levels, and PON-1 (paraoxonase and arylesterase) activities. Patients were loaded with 600 mg of clopidogrel followed by 75 mg per day. HDL-cholesterol levels and PON-1 activities at baseline (before clopidogrel loading) were not altered at 5- and 30-day post-clopidogrel loading, whereas baseline platelet activation parameters were significantly attenuated. At 5 days, 17 patients were clopidogrel non-responders (PRI: 64.2 ± 11.1%). HDL-cholesterol was inversely associated with platelet activation parameters independently on platelet response variability to clopidogrel whereas a negative association between platelet activation parameters and paraoxonase activity was observed in patients adequately responding to clopidogrel but not in clopidogrel non-responders. Similarly, the platelet activation markers were significantly higher in PON-1 Q192Q genotype carriers compared with those having one or two R alleles only in patients adequately responding to clopidogrel. CONCLUSIONS PON-1 is an important determinant of clopidogrel antiplatelet efficacy only in patients adequately responding to clopidogrel. These findings may be clinically important in ACS patients receiving clopidogrel therapy, especially the first days after the episode.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) controls platelet integrin function, tissue-factor (TF) activation, and concentrates at fibrin and thrombus formation sites of vascular injury. OBJECTIVE To investigate the involvement of surface thiol isomerases and especially PDI, in thrombin-mediated thrombin amplification on human platelets. METHODS/RESULTS Using a newly developed thrombin-dependent platelet thrombin generation assay, we observed that the feedback activation of thrombin generation on the platelet surface does not depend on TF, as anti-TF antibodies inhibiting TF-induced thrombin formation in platelet-depleted plasma had no effect compared with vehicle-treated controls. Feedback activation of thrombin generation in the presence of platelets was significantly diminished by membrane impermeant thiol blockers or by the thiol isomerase-inhibitors bacitracin and anti-PDI antibody RL90, respectively. Platelet thrombin formation depends on binding of coagulation factors to the platelet surface. Therefore, involvement of thiol isomerases in this binding was investigated. As shown by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry, thrombin-stimulated platelets exhibited increased surface-associated PDI as well as extracellular disulfide reductase activity compared with unstimulated platelets. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that membrane impermeant thiol blockers or PDI inhibitors, which had been added after platelet stimulation and after phosphatidylserine exposure to exclude their influence on primary platelet activation, significantly inhibited binding of all coagulation factors to thrombin-stimulated platelets. CONCLUSIONS Thus, surface-associated PDI is an important regulator of coagulation factor ligation to thrombin-stimulated platelets and of subsequent feedback activation of platelet thrombin generation. Cell surface thiol isomerases might be therefore powerful targets to control hemostasis and thrombosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW HDL cholesterol levels have been inversely correlated with thrombosis and HDL has been shown to mediate various antithrombotic effects. However, molecular mechanisms underlying the suppressing effect of HDL on platelet reactivity are not completely understood. The present review summarizes the recent advancements in understanding the role played by scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) - an HDL receptor - in modulating platelet function and mediating platelet-HDL interactions. RECENT FINDINGS SR-BI is expressed on platelet surface and platelets from SR-BI knockout animals are characterized by increased free-to-total cholesterol ratio, abnormal morphology, increased reactivity to strong platelets agonists, enhanced adherence to immobilized fibrinogen, and a propensity to form arterial thrombi. Crossover incubation experiments and a bone marrow transplantation approach reveal increased wild-type platelet reactivity in plasma from SR-BI mice and normal or decreased SR-BI-deficient platelet reactivity in wild-type plasma. A similar functional platelet phenotype has been observed in human carriers of an SR-BI genetic variant. SR-BI ligands interfere with HDL binding to murine platelets and impede the agonist-induced platelet activation as effectively as native HDL. The inhibitory effects of native HDL, moderately oxidized HDL, and SR-BI ligands are abolished in SR-BI-deficient platelets but not in CD36-deficient platelets. SUMMARY SR-BI exerts an indirect influence on platelet reactivity via maintaining normal plasma cholesterol homeostasis. In addition, SR-BI is a functional receptor for native and moderately oxidized HDL on platelets that generates an inhibitory signal for platelet activation.
