Procoagulant phenotype induced by oxidized high-density lipoprotein associates with acute kidney injury and death. Thromb Res 2023; 223:7-23. [PMID: 36689805 DOI: 10.1016/j.thromres.2023.01.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress derived from severe systemic inflammation promotes conversion from high-density lipoprotein HDL to oxidized HDL (oxHDL), which interacts with vascular endothelial cells (ECs). OxHDL acquires procoagulant features playing a role in modulating coagulation, which has been linked with organ failure in ICU patients. However, whether oxHDL elicits a ECs-mediated procoagulant phenotype generating organ failure and death, and the underlying molecular mechanism is not known. Therefore, we studied whether oxHDL-treated rats and high-oxHDL ICU patients exhibit a procoagulant phenotype and its association with kidney injury and mortality and the endothelial underlying molecular mechanism. METHODS Human ECs, oxHDL-treated rats and ICU patients were subjected to several cellular and molecular studies, coagulation analyses, kidney injury assessment and mortality determination. RESULTS OxHDL-treated ECs showed a procoagulant protein expression reprograming characterized by increased E-/P-selectin and vWF mRNA expression through specific signaling pathways. OxHDL-treated rats exhibited a procoagulant phenotype and modified E-/P-selectin, vWF, TF and t-PA mRNA expression correlating with plasma TF, t-PA and D-dimer. Also, showed increased death events and the relative risk of death, and increased creatinine, urea, BUN/creatinine ratio, KIM-1, NGAL, β2M, and decreased eGFR, all concordant with kidney injury, correlated with plasma TF, t-PA and D-dimer. ICU patients showed correlation between plasma oxHDL and increased creatinine, cystatin, BUN, BUN/creatinine ratio, KIM-1, NGAL, β2M, and decreased GFR. Notably, ICU high-oxHDL patients showed decreased survival. Interestingly, altered coagulation factors TF, t-PA and D-dimer correlated with both increased oxHDL levels and kidney injury markers, indicating a connection between these factors. CONCLUSION Increased circulating oxHDL generates an endothelial-dependent procoagulant phenotype that associates with acute kidney injury and increased risk of death.

Sepsis-Induced Coagulopathy Phenotype Induced by Oxidized High-Density Lipoprotein Associated with Increased Mortality in Septic-Shock Patients. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12030543. [PMID: 36978791 PMCID: PMC10045333 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12030543] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Sepsis syndrome is a highly lethal uncontrolled response to an infection, which is characterized by sepsis-induced coagulopathy (SIC). High-density lipoprotein (HDL) exhibits antithrombotic activity, regulating coagulation in vascular endothelial cells. Sepsis induces the release of several proinflammatory molecules, including reactive oxygen species, which lead to an increase in oxidative stress in blood vessels. Thus, circulating lipoproteins, such as HDL, are oxidized to oxHDL, which promotes hemostatic dysfunction, acquiring prothrombotic properties linked to the severity of organ failure in septic-shock patients (SSP). However, a rigorous and comprehensive investigation demonstrating that oxHDL is associated with a coagulopathy-associated deleterious outcome of SSP, has not been reported. Thus, we investigated the participation of plasma oxHDL in coagulopathy-associated sepsis pathogenesis and elucidated the underlying molecular mechanism. A prospective study was conducted on 42 patients admitted to intensive care units, (26 SSP and 16 non-SSP) and 39 healthy volunteers. We found that an increased plasma oxHDL level in SSP was associated with a prothrombotic phenotype, increased mortality and elevated risk of death, which predicts mortality in SSP. The underlying mechanism indicates that oxHDL triggers an endothelial protein expression reprogramming of coagulation factors and procoagulant adhesion proteins, to produce a prothrombotic environment, mainly mediated by the endothelial LOX-1 receptor. Our study demonstrates that an increased plasma oxHDL level is associated with coagulopathy in SSP through a mechanism involving the endothelial LOX-1 receptor and endothelial protein expression regulation. Therefore, the plasma oxHDL level plays a role in the molecular mechanism associated with increased mortality in SSP.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:2469. [PMID: 36552677 PMCID: PMC9774523 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11122469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
During systemic inflammation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated in the bloodstream, producing large amounts of oxidized HDL (oxHDL). OxHDL loses the vascular protective features of native HDL, acquiring detrimental actions. Systemic inflammation promotes endothelial fibrosis, characterized by adhesion protein downregulation and fibrotic-specific gene upregulation, disrupting endothelial monolayer integrity. Severe systemic inflammatory conditions, as found in critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), exhibit endothelial hyperpermeability, hypotension, and organ hypoperfusion, promoting organ dysfunction and increased mortality. Because endothelial fibrosis disturbs the endothelium, it is proposed that it is the cellular and molecular origin of endothelial hyperpermeability and the subsequent deleterious consequences. However, whether oxHDL is involved in this process is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the fibrotic effect of oxHDL on the endothelium, to elucidate the underlying molecular and cellular mechanism, and to determine its effects on vascular permeability, blood pressure, and mortality. The results showed that oxHDL induces endothelial fibrosis through the LOX-1/NOX-2/ROS/NF-κB pathway, TGF-β secretion, and ALK-5/Smad activation. OxHDL-treated rats showed endothelial hyperpermeability, hypotension, and an enhanced risk of death and mortality, which was prevented using an ALK-5 inhibitor and antioxidant diet consumption. Additionally, the ICU patients showed fibrotic endothelial cells, and the resuscitation fluid volume administered correlated with the plasma oxHDL levels associated with an elevated risk of death and mortality. We conclude that oxHDL generates endothelial fibrosis, impacting blood pressure regulation and survival.

Abstract
Karenia mikimotoi is a well-known harmful algal bloom species. Blooms of this dinoflagellate have become a serious threat to marine life, including fish, shellfish, and zooplanktons and are usually associated with massive fish death. Despite the discovery of several toxins such as gymnocins and gymnodimines in K. mikimotoi, the mechanisms underlying the ichthyotoxicity of this species remain unclear, and molecular studies on this topic have never been reported. The present study investigates the fish-killing mechanisms of K. mikimotoi through comparative proteomic analysis. Marine medaka, a model fish organism, was exposed to K. mikimotoi for a three-part time period (LT25, LT50 and LT90). Proteins extracted from the whole fish were separated by using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and differentially expressed proteins were identified with reference to an untreated control. The change in fish proteomes over the time-course of exposure were analyzed. A total of 35 differential protein spots covering 19 different proteins were identified, of which most began to show significant change in expression levels at the earliest stage of intoxication. Among the 19 identified proteins, some are closely related to the oxidative stress responses, energy metabolism, and muscle contraction. We propose that oxidative stress-mediated muscle damage might explain the symptoms developed during the ichthyotoxicity test, such as gasping for breath, loss of balance, and body twitching. Our findings lay the foundations for more in-depth studies of the mechanisms of K. mikimotoi's ichthyotoxicity.

Abstract
Although oxidization of LDL is known to be a crucial step for atherosclerotic progression, the significance of oxidized HDL remains to be clarified. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships of oxidized HDL with blood coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with diabetes. The subjects were outpatients with type 2 diabetes (n = 163; median hemoglobin A1c, 6.9%). Activities of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis were evaluated by levels of thrombin-anti-thrombin complex (TAT) and plasmin-α2 plasmin inhibitor complex (PIC), respectively. Relationships of oxidized HDL with TAT and PIC were investigated by using linear regression analysis and logistic regression analysis. Oxidized HDL showed a significant inverse correlation with TAT and a marginally significant correlation with PIC (Spearman's rank correlation coefficient: TAT, - 0.205 [p < 0.01]; PIC, - 0.135 [p = 0.087]). Prevalence of high TAT was significantly lower in the 3rd tertile group for oxidized HDL than in its 1st tertile (20.4 vs. 5.6%, p < 0.05), and prevalence of high PIC was marginally significantly lower in the 3rd tertile group for oxidized HDL than in its 1st tertile (40.7 vs. 24.1%, p = 0.099). In multivariate logistic regression analysis using age, gender, smoking, alcohol drinking, BMI, hemoglobin A1c, therapy for dyslipidemia, therapy for diabetes and anti-coagulation therapy as explanatory variables, odds ratios for high TAT and high PIC in the 3rd tertile group for oxidized HDL versus its 1st tertile group were significantly lower than the reference level of 1.00 (high TAT: 0.19 [0.04-0.99], p < 0.05; high PIC: 0.33 [0.12-0.95], p < 0.05). The frequency of high TAT or high PIC was lower in the higher tertile group for oxidized HDL than in its lower tertile group. Thus, oxidized HDL is thought to be inversely associated with both blood coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated that hemoglobin-haptoglobin (Hb-Hp) complex plays a role in developing vascular complications in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The complexes bind with Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), affecting the function of Lecithin:Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT), and impairing the reverse cholesterol transport mechanism (RCT). This study investigated the influence of Hp phenotypes on serum levels of ApoA1 and LCAT in patients with T2DM. METHODS The study comprised 131 T2DM patients and 111 matching healthy controls. Fasting blood glucose, HbA1C, and lipid profile were determined by chemistry autoanalyzer, LCAT and ApoA1 by ELISA, and Hp phenotypes by gel electrophoresis. RESULTS Irrespective of Hp phenotypes, fasting blood glucose, HbA1C, and lipid profile were significantly higher in patients than in controls, while HDL-cholesterol, ApoA1, and LCAT were lower. ApoA1 correlated positively with LCAT (r=0.223, p=0.024) and HDL-cholesterol (r=0.255, 0.003) in patients only. When Hp polymorphism was taken into account, the levels of LCAT and ApoA1 were significantly lower in patients with Hp2-2 than that in patients of Hp1-1 and/or Hp2-1. Correlations between ApoA1 and each of HDL-cholesterol and LCAT (r=0.239, p=0.046, and r=0.252, p=0.040, respectively) were also observed, but only in patients with Hp2-2 phenotype. CONCLUSIONS The reduced levels of LCAT and ApoA1 observed in this study support the suggestion that T2DM patients with Hp2-2 phenotype could have altered RCT mechanism and increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidized high-density lipoprotein (oxHDL) has reduced capacity for cholesterol efflux and some of other anti-atherogenic properties of HDL, but the role of oxHDL in the pathogenesis of cardiometabolic disease has not been fully demonstrated. This study investigated the association of oxHDL with plasma glucose (PG) and the other atherosclerotic risk variables in non-diabetic dyslipidemic subjects. METHODS Conventional atherosclerotic markers and LDL particle size (LDL-PS), as determined by gel electrophoresis, were measured in 155 non-diabetic subjects (mean age of 57 years) with dyslipidemia. Serum oxHDL levels were quantified using an antibody against oxidized human apoA-I in a sandwich ELISA format. RESULTS Multiple regression analysis adjusted for possible confounders revealed that HDL-cholesterol was independently, significantly and positively correlated with LDL-PS and oxHDL. By multiple regression analysis, oxHDL was independently, significantly and positively correlated with fasting PG (β=0.19, P=0.01). Subjects in the highest PG tertile group had approximately 30% higher oxHDL levels than the lowest PG tertile group. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that high PG levels may contribute to the HDL oxidation, irrespective of HDL-cholesterol levels, even in non-diabetic subjects with dyslipidemia, and that the measurement of oxHDL may be a useful marker of dysfunctional HDL.

Abstract
Oxidized HDL has been proposed to play a key role in atherogenesis. A wide range of reactive intermediates oxidizes methionine residues to methionine sulfoxide (MetO) in apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), the major HDL protein. These reactive species include those produced by myeloperoxidase, an enzyme implicated in atherogenesis. The aim of the present study was to develop a sensitive and specific ELISA for detecting MetO residues in HDL. We therefore immunized mice with HPLC-purified human apoA-I containing MetO(86) and MetO(112) (termed apoA-I(+32)) to generate a monoclonal antibody termed MOA-I. An ELISA using MOA-I detected lipid-free apoA-I(+32), apoA-I modified by 2e-oxidants (hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorous acid, peroxynitrite), and HDL oxidized by 1e- or 2e-oxidants and present in buffer or human plasma. Detection was concentration dependent, reproducible, and exhibited a linear response over a physiologically plausible range of concentrations of oxidized HDL. In contrast, MOA-I failed to recognize native apoA-I, native apoA-II, apoA-I modified by hydroxyl radical or metal ions, or LDL and methionine-containing proteins other than apoA-I modified by 2e-oxidants. Because the ELISA we have developed specifically detects apoA-I containing MetO in HDL and plasma, it should provide a useful tool for investigating the relationship between oxidized HDL and coronary artery disease.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and the enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) has been identified as one source of reactive oxidants. MPO-mediated oxidation of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and although several links between cardiovascular disease and AD have been reported, surprisingly little is known about the role of HDL oxidation in AD. We show that MPO binding to isolated HDL depends on the lipidation state of apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I), the major protein constituent of HDL. When quantifying apo A-I and oxidized HDL in plasma of AD patients and cognitive healthy, age- and gender matched controls, we observed similar apo A-I levels in AD patients (263 +/- 70 mg/dl) and controls (268 +/- 70 mg/dl, p = 0.83). In striking contrast, oxidized HDL was significantly reduced in AD patients (4.72 +/- 1.91 U/dl) compared to controls (6.98 +/- 3.32 U/dl, p = 0.012). The marked decrease of oxidized HDL in AD patients is surprising considering the current oxidation hypothesis. We suggest that additional mechanisms, including increased antioxidant production and/or altered lipoprotein metabolism, might be involved in AD pathology.

Abstract
Two common alleles exist at the haptoglobin (Hp) locus, and the Hp2 allele is associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease, specifically in diabetes mellitus (DM). Oxidative stress is increased in Hp2 mice and humans with DM. Oxidative modification of the apolipoprotein A-I inhibits reverse cholesterol transport. We sought to test the hypothesis that reverse cholesterol transport is impaired in Hp2 DM mice and humans. In vitro, using serum from non-DM and DM individuals, we measured cholesterol efflux from (3)H-cholesterol-labeled macrophages. In vivo, we injected (3)H-cholesterol-loaded macrophages intraperitoneally into non-DM and DM mice with the Hp1-1 or Hp2-2 genotype and monitored (3)H-tracer levels in plasma, liver, and feces. In vitro, in DM individuals only, we observed significantly decreased cholesterol efflux from macrophages incubated with serum from Hp2-1 or Hp2-2 as compared with Hp1-1 individuals (P<0.01). The interaction between Hp type and DM was recapitulated using purified Hp and glycated Hb. In vivo, DM mice loaded with (3)H-cholesterol-labeled macrophages had a 40% reduction in (3)H-cholesterol in plasma, liver, and feces as compared with non-DM mice (P<0.01). The reduction in reverse cholesterol transport associated with DM was significantly greater in Hp2-2 mice as compared with Hp1-1 mice (54% versus 25% in plasma; 52% versus 27% in liver; 57% versus 32% in feces; P<0.03). reverse cholesterol transport is decreased in Hp2-2 DM. This may explain in part the increased atherosclerotic burden found in Hp2-2 DM individuals.
