Abstract
Precise control of circulating lipids is instrumental in health and disease. Bulk lipids, carried by specialized lipoproteins, are secreted into the circulation, initially via the coat protein complex II (COPII). How the universal COPII machinery accommodates the abundant yet unconventional lipoproteins remains unclear, let alone its therapeutic translation. Here we report that COPII uses manganese-tuning, self-constrained condensation to selectively drive lipoprotein delivery and set lipid homeostasis in vivo. Serendipitously, adenovirus hijacks the condensation-based transport mechanism, thus enabling the identification of cytosolic manganese as an unexpected control signal. Manganese directly binds the inner COPII coat and enhances its condensation, thereby shifting the assembly-versus-dynamics balance of the transport machinery. Manganese can be mobilized from mitochondria stores to signal COPII, and selectively controls lipoprotein secretion with a distinctive, bell-shaped function. Consequently, dietary titration of manganese enables tailored lipid management that counters pathological dyslipidaemia and atherosclerosis, implicating a condensation-targeting strategy with broad therapeutic potential for cardio-metabolic health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) and their hormones are essential regulators of whole-body energy homeostasis. EECs sense luminal nutrients and microbial metabolites and subsequently secrete various hormones acting locally or at a distance. Impaired development of EECs during embryogenesis is life-threatening in newborn mice and humans due to compromised nutrient absorption. However, the physiological importance of the EEC system in adult mice has yet to be directedly studied. Herein, we aimed to determine the long-term consequences of a total loss of EECs in healthy adults on energy metabolism, intestinal transcriptome, and microbiota. METHODS We depleted intestinal EECs by tamoxifen treatment of adult Neurog3fl/fl; Villin-CreERT2 male mice. We studied intestinal cell differentiation, food efficiency, lipid absorption, microbiota composition, fecal metabolites, and transcriptomic responses in the proximal and distal small intestines of mice lacking EECs. We also determined the high-fat diet-induced transcriptomic changes in sorted Neurog3eYFP/+ EECs. RESULTS Induction of EEC deficiency in adults is not life-threatening unless fed with a high-fat diet. Under a standard chow diet, mice lose 10% of weight due to impaired food efficiency. Blood concentrations of cholesterol, triglycerides, and free fatty acids are reduced, and lipid absorption is impaired and delayed in the distal small intestine. Genes controlling lipogenesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and neoglucogenesis are upregulated. Microbiota composition is rapidly altered after EECs depletion and is characterized by decreased a-diversity. Bacteroides and Lactobacillus were progressively enriched, whereas Lachnospiraceae declined without impacting fecal short-chain fatty acid concentrations. CONCLUSIONS EECs are dispensable for survival in adult male mice under a standard chow diet. The absence of EECs impairs intestinal lipid absorption, leading to transcriptomic and metabolic adaptations and remodeling of the gut microbiota.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common non-communicable diseases with the highest prevalence and mortality rate in the all around the world. There are some risk factors -such as modifiable and non-modifiable- which are effective on the development of these diseases. Modifiable risk factors are closely related to dyslipidemia, which forms the basis of cardiovascular diseases. Dyslipidemia is characterized by high triacylglycerol (TAG) and free fatty acids, decreased high density lipoprotein (HDL) level and function, increased low density lipoprotein (LDL) level and apolipoprotein B (Apo B) production. There is a relation between dyslipidemia with nutritional and physical activity behaviors. In particular, adherence to the Mediterranean diet and lifestyle behaviors instead of the Western diet can potentially decrease dyslipidemia risk. On the other hand, some of micronutrients such as niacin can potentially decrease dyslipidemia risk as a nutritional supplement. Niacin -which is a water-soluble, B group vitamin- can potentially decrease TAG, free fatty acids, Apo B, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and LDL levels and increase HDL and apolipoprotein A (Apo A) levels in plasma. Due to these potential beneficial effects, niacin acts a pharmacological agent to decrease both of dyslipidemia risk and symptoms. However, niacin is used more than tolerable upper intake level (35 mg/day) to show these potential effects (1-3 g). This situation may cause to ‘niacin flush’ symptom. In addition, there is a need for the studies which aim to determine the negative effects of high dose niacin intake on human’s health in long-term. In this review article, potential effects of the niacin on dyslipidemia are examined within the current literature.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The elevated adverse cardiovascular event rate among patients with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) formed the basis for the hypothesis that elevating HDL-C would reduce those events. Attempts to raise endogenous HDL-C levels, however, have consistently failed to show improvements in cardiovascular outcomes. However, steady-state HDL-C concentration does not reflect the function of this complex family of particles. Indeed, HDL functions correlate only weakly with serum HDL-C concentration. Thus, the field has pivoted from simply raising the quantity of HDL-C to a focus on improving the putative anti-atherosclerotic functions of HDL particles. Such functions include the ability of HDL to promote the efflux of cholesterol from cholesterol-laden macrophages. Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), the signature apoprotein of HDL, may facilitate the removal of cholesterol from atherosclerotic plaque, reduce the lesional lipid content and might thus stabilize vulnerable plaques, thereby reducing the risk of cardiac events. Infusion of preparations of apoA-I may improve cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC). This review summarizes the development of apoA-I therapies, compares their structural and functional properties and discusses the findings of previous studies including their limitations, and how CSL112, currently being tested in a phase III trial, may overcome these challenges. RECENT FINDINGS Three major ApoA-I-based approaches (MDCO-216, CER-001, and CSL111/CSL112) have aimed to enhance reverse cholesterol transport. These three therapies differ considerably in both lipid and protein composition. MDCO-216 contains recombinant ApoA-I Milano, CER-001 contains recombinant wild-type human ApoA-I, and CSL111/CSL112 contains native ApoA-I isolated from human plasma. Two of the three agents studied to date (apoA-1 Milano and CER-001) have undergone evaluation by intravascular ultrasound imaging, a technique that gauges lesion volume well but does not assess other important variables that may relate to clinical outcomes. ApoA-1 Milano and CER-001 reduce lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity, potentially impairing the function of HDL in reverse cholesterol transport. Furthermore, apoA-I Milano can compete with and alter the function of the recipient's endogenous apoA-I. In contrast to these agents, CSL112, a particle formulated using human plasma apoA-I and phosphatidylcholine, increases LCAT activity and does not lead to the malfunction of endogenous apoA-I. CSL112 robustly increases cholesterol efflux, promotes reverse cholesterol transport, and now is being tested in a phase III clinical trial. Phase II-b studies of MDCO-216 and CER-001 failed to produce a significant reduction in coronary plaque volume as assessed by IVUS. However, the investigation to determine whether the direct infusion of a reconstituted apoA-I reduces post-myocardial infarction coronary events is being tested using CSL112, which is dosed at a higher level than MDCO-216 and CER-001 and has more favorable pharmacodynamics.

Abstract
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a minor phospholipid constituent of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) that exhibits potent anti-inflammatory activity. It remains indeterminate whether PS incorporation can enhance anti-inflammatory effects of reconstituted HDL (rHDL). Human macrophages were treated with rHDL containing phosphatidylcholine alone (PC-rHDL) or PC and PS (PC/PS-rHDL). Interleukin (IL)-6 secretion and expression was more strongly inhibited by PC/PS-rHDL than PC-rHDL in both tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α- and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages. siRNA experiments revealed that the enhanced anti-inflammatory effects of PC/PS-rHDL required scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). Furthermore, PC/PS-rHDL induced a greater increase in Akt1/2/3 phosphorylation than PC-rHDL. In addition, PC/PS but not PC-rHDL decreased the abundance of plasma membrane lipid rafts and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) phosphorylation. Finally, when these rHDL formulations were administered to dyslipidemic low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-receptor knockout mice fed a high-cholesterol diet, circulating IL-6 levels were significantly reduced only in PC/PS-rHDL-treated mice. In parallel, enhanced Akt1/2/3 phosphorylation by PC/PS-rHDL was observed in the mouse aortic tissue using immunohistochemistry. We concluded that the incorporation of PS into rHDLs enhanced their anti-inflammatory activity by modulating Akt1/2/3- and p38 MAPK-mediated signaling through SR-BI in stimulated macrophages. These data identify PS as a potent anti-inflammatory component capable of enhancing therapeutic potential of rHDL-based therapy.

Anti-inflammatory function of apolipoprotein B-depleted plasma is impaired in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0266227.

Abstract
Background
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. HDL exerts various protective functions on the cardiovascular system including anti-inflammatory activity by suppressing adhesion molecules expression in inflammation-induced endothelial cells. This study was designed to search if the anti-inflammatory capacity of apolipoprotein B-depleted plasma (apoB-depleted plasma) is altered in NAFLD patients.
Methods
A total of 83 subjects including 42 NAFLD and 41 control subjects were included in this cross-sectional study. Anti-inflammatory function of HDL was determined as the ability of apoB-depleted plasma to inhibit tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced expression of adhesion molecules in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).
Results
Incubation of inflammation-stimulated HUVECs with the NAFLD patients’ apo-B depleted plasma led to higher levels of expression of adhesion molecules compared to the control subjects’ plasma samples, reflecting an impaired anti-inflammatory capacity of apoB-depleted plasma in the NAFLD patients. Impaired anti-inflammatory capacity of apoB-depleted plasma was correlated with fatty liver and obesity indices. After adjustment with obesity indices, the association of anti-inflammatory capacity of apoB-depleted plasma with NAFLD remained significant.
Conclusion
Impaired anti-inflammatory activity of apoB-depleted plasma was independently associated with NAFLD.

Abstract
CONTEXT Moderate alcohol consumption is associated with decreased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and improvement in cardiovascular risk markers, including lipoproteins and lipoprotein subfractions. OBJECTIVE To systematically review the relationship between moderate alcohol intake, lipoprotein subfractions, and related mechanisms. DATA SOURCES Following PRISMA, all human and ex vivo studies with an alcohol intake up to 60 g/d were included from 8 databases. DATA EXTRACTION A total of 17 478 studies were screened, and data were extracted from 37 intervention and 77 observational studies. RESULTS Alcohol intake was positively associated with all HDL subfractions. A few studies found lower levels of small LDLs, increased average LDL particle size, and nonlinear relationships to apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Cholesterol efflux capacity and paraoxonase activity were consistently increased. Several studies had unclear or high risk of bias, and heterogeneous laboratory methods restricted comparability between studies. CONCLUSIONS Up to 60 g/d alcohol can cause changes in lipoprotein subfractions and related mechanisms that could influence cardiovascular health. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO registration no. 98955.

Abstract
Background Patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) have increased cardiovascular risk. Capsaicin (CAP) has been shown to reduce lipids, but efficacy for patients with MetS is unknown. Methods A systematic review was performed according to PRISMA guidelines, to compare the effects of CAP against a placebo. Differences in the weight mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were then pooled using a random effects model. Results Nine randomized controlled trials including 461 patients were identified in the overall analysis. CAP significantly decreased total cholesterol (TC) (WMD = −0.48, 95% CI: −0.63 to −0.34, I2= 0.00%) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (WMD = −0.23, 95% CI: −0.45 to −0.02, I2 = 68.27%) among patients with MetS. No significant effects of CAP were found on triglycerides (TG) or high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (WMD = −0.40, 95% CI: −1.50 to 0.71, I2 = 98.32%; WMD = −0.08, 95% CI: −0.21 to 0.04, I2 = 86.06%). Subgroup analyses indicated that sex and intervention period were sources of heterogeneity. The results revealed that CAP decreased TG levels in women (WMD = −0.59, 95% CI: −1.07 to −0.10) and intervention period <12 weeks (WMD = −0.65; 95% CI: −1.10 to −0.20). And there was no potential publication bias according to funnel plot, Begg' test and Egger regression test. Conclusions CAP supplementation is a promising approach to decreasing TC and LCL-C levels in patients with MetS. However, short-term (<12 weeks) use of CAP in women may also reduce TG levels.

[PMID: 34463228 DOI: 10.2174/1573406417666210830125431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2021] [Revised: 05/12/2021] [Accepted: 05/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is an alarming spread of cases of lipid-disorders in the world that occur due to harmful lifestyle habits, hereditary risk influences, or as a result of other illnesses or medicines. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a 476-residue lipophilic glycoprotein that helps in the transport of cholesteryl ester and phospholipids from the atheroprotective HDL to the proatherogenic LDL and VLDL. Inhibition of CETP leads to elevation of HDL cholesterol and reduction of LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, so it's considered a good target for the treatment of hyperlipidemia and its comorbidities. OBJECTIVES In this research synthesis, characterization, molecular modeling and biological evaluation of eight 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzylamino benzamides 9a-d and 10a-d were carried out. METHODS The synthesized molecules were characterized using 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR and HR-MS. They were in vitro biologically tested to estimate their CETP inhibitory activity. RESULTS These compounds offered inhibitory effectiveness ranging from 42.2% to 100% at a concentration of 10 µM. Compounds bearing unsubstituted three aromatic rings (9a) or ortho-CF3 substituted (9b) were the most effective compounds among their analogs and showed IC50 values of 1.36 and 0.69 μM, respectively. The high docking scores of 9a-d and 10a-d against 4EWS imply that they might be possible CETP inhibitors. Pharmacophore mapping results demonstrate that the series approves the fingerprint of CETP active inhibitors and therefore explains their high binding affinity against CETP binding site. CONCLUSION This work concludes that 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzylamino benzamides can serve as a promising CETP inhibitors lead compounds.

Abstract
The etiology of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 diabetes is multifactorial. Sustained hyperglycemia is a major contributor, but additional contributions come from the hypertension, obesity, and hyperlipidemia that are also commonly present in patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy. The leptin deficient BTBR ob/ob mouse is a model of type 2 diabetic nephropathy in which hyperglycemia, obesity, and hyperlipidemia, but not hypertension, are present. We have shown that reversal of the constellation of these metabolic abnormalities with leptin replacement can reverse the morphologic and functional manifestations of diabetic nephropathy. Here we tested the hypothesis that reversal specifically of the hypertriglyceridemia, using an antisense oligonucleotide directed against ApoC-III, an apolipoprotein that regulates the interactions of VLDL (very low density lipoproteins) with the LDL receptor, is sufficient to ameliorate the nephropathy of Type 2 diabetes. Antisense treatment resulted in reduction of circulating ApoC-III protein levels and resulted in substantial lowering of triglycerides to near-normal levels in diabetic mice versus controls. Antisense treatment did not ameliorate proteinuria or pathologic manifestations of diabetic nephropathy, including podocyte loss. These studies indicate that pathologic manifestations of diabetic nephropathy are unlikely to be reduced by lipid-lowering therapeutics alone, but does not preclude a role for such interventions to be used in conjunction with other therapeutics commonly employed in the treatment of diabetes and its complications.

Abstract
Lack of medication adherence among patients with dyslipidemia negatively affects health-related outcomes. This study aims to evaluate medication adherence; we also aim to investigate the predictors of non-adherence among patients with dyslipidemia in Jordan. Medication adherence was evaluated in a total of 228 dyslipidemia patients. The Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire was also used to assess patients' beliefs about medications. The majority of the current study participants (73.2%) reported non-adherence to the prescribed medications. There were significant negative associations between medication adherence and concerns of prescription drug use (B = -0.41, p-value < 0.01), duration of dyslipidemia (B = -0.22, p-value < 0.01), and the number of medications (B = -0.64, p-value < 0.01). Positive associations were found between medication adherence and the necessity of prescription drug use (B = 0.43, p-value < 0.01), taking statin and fibrate (B = 2.04, p-value < 0.01), and moderate-intensity statin (B = 2.34, p-value < 0.01). As for patients' beliefs about medications, the item "My medicine to lower my cholesterol disrupted my life" had the highest mean (3.50 ± 0.99). This study revealed a low adherence rate to medication among patients with dyslipidemia. It also demonstrates modifiable factors such as beliefs regarding perceived risk, medication harms, treatment duration, and the number of medications associated with poor adherence in patients with dyslipidemia.

Abstract
Background We recently showed that, in patients with heart failure, lower high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentration was a strong predictor of death or hospitalization for heart failure. In a follow‐up study, we suggested that this association could be partly explained by HDL proteome composition. However, whether the emerging concept of HDL function contributes to the prognosis of patients with heart failure has not been addressed. Methods and Results We measured 3 key protective HDL function metrics, namely, cholesterol efflux, antioxidative capacity, and anti‐inflammatory capacity, at baseline and after 9 months in 446 randomly selected patients with heart failure from BIOSTAT‐CHF (A Systems Biology Study to Tailored Treatment in Chronic Heart Failure). Additionally, the relationship between HDL functionality and HDL proteome composition was determined in 86 patients with heart failure. From baseline to 9 months, HDL cholesterol concentrations were unchanged, but HDL cholesterol efflux and anti‐inflammatory capacity declined (both P<0.001). In contrast, antioxidative capacity increased (P<0.001). Higher HDL cholesterol efflux was associated with lower mortality after adjusting for BIOSTAT‐CHF risk models and log HDL cholesterol (hazard ratio, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.71–0.92; P=0.001). Other functionality measures were not associated with outcome. Several HDL proteins correlated with HDL functionality, mainly with cholesterol efflux. Apolipoprotein A1 emerged as the main protein associated with all 3 HDL functionality measures. Conclusions Better HDL cholesterol efflux at baseline was associated with lower mortality during follow‐up, independent of HDL cholesterol. HDL cholesterol efflux and anti‐inflammatory capacity declined during follow‐up in patients with heart failure. Measures of HDL function may provide clinical information in addition to HDL cholesterol concentration in patients with heart failure.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of specific cargos in vivo poses a major challenge to the secretory pathway, which shuttles products encoded by ∼30% of the genome. Newly synthesized protein and lipid cargos embark on the secretory pathway via COPII-coated vesicles, assembled by the GTPase SAR1 on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but how lipid-carrying lipoproteins are distinguished from the general protein cargos in the ER and selectively secreted has not been clear. Here, we show that this process is quantitatively governed by the GTPase SAR1B and SURF4, a high-efficiency cargo receptor. While both genes are implicated in lipid regulation in humans, hepatic inactivation of either mouse Sar1b or Surf4 selectively depletes plasma lipids to near-zero and protects the mice from atherosclerosis. These findings show that the pairing between SURF4 and SAR1B synergistically operates a specialized, dosage-sensitive transport program for circulating lipids, while further suggesting a potential translation to treat atherosclerosis and related cardio-metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Dabai pulp oil (DPO) is new oil extracted from the pulp of Canarium odontophyllum. The quality and efficacy of DPO are needed to promote its potential as a new alternative fat. Therefore, we investigate the quality of DPO, which includes moisture and volatile content (MVC), free fatty acid content (FFA), iodine value (IV), and peroxide value (PV). Furthermore, we evaluate the efficacy of DPO against hypercholesterolemia elicited by a high-cholesterol diet in rats. The MVC of DPO was <0.001 ± 0.00%. Next, the FFA in DPO was 2.57 ± 0.03%, and the IV of DPO was 53.74 ± 0.08 g iodine/100 g oil. Meanwhile, the PV of DPO was 4.97 ± 0.00 mEq/kg. Supplementation of DPO in hypercholesterolemic rats for 30 days revealed the hypocholesterolemic effect (significant reduction of total cholesterol, triglyceride, and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase) accompanied by a significant reduction of inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein, interleukin-6 and tumour necrosis factor-α), and lipid peroxidation (MDA). We also observed a significant improvement of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and antioxidant capacities (total antioxidant status, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase) of the rats. The results on the quality and efficacy of locally made DPO suggest its potential use as a healthy alternative fat in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple genetic studies have confirmed the definitive link among the loss-of-function variants of angiogenin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4), significantly decreased plasma triglyceride (TG) levels, and reduced risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). The potential therapeutic effect of ANGPTL4 on dyslipidemia and CHD has been widely studied. OBJECTIVE This review provides a detailed introduction to the research progress on the involvement of ANGPTL4 in lipid metabolism and atherosclerosis and evaluates the efficacy and safety of ANGPTL4 as a therapeutic target for CHD. RELEVANT FINDINGS By inhibiting lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity, ANGPTL4 plays a vital role in the regulation of lipid metabolism and energy balance. However, the role of ANGPTL4 in regulating lipid metabolism is tissue-specific. ANGPTL4 acts as a locally released LPL inhibitor in the heart, skeletal muscle and small intestine, while ANGPTL4 derived from liver and adipose tissue mainly acts as an endocrine factor that regulates systemic lipid metabolism. As a multifunctional protein, ANGPTL4 also inhibits the formation of foam cells in macrophages, exerting an anti-atherogenic role. The function of ANGPTL4 in endothelial cells is still uncertain. The safety of ANGPTL4 monoclonal antibodies requires further evaluation due to their potential adverse effects. CONCLUSION The biological characteristics of ANGPTL4 are much more complex than those demonstrated by genetic studies. Future studies must elucidate how to effectively reduce the risk of CHD while avoiding potential atherogenic effects and other complications before the "prime time" of ANGPTL4-targeted therapy arrives.

Abstract
Although human genetic studies have implicated many susceptible genes associated with plasma lipid levels, their physiological and molecular functions are not fully characterized. Here we demonstrate that orphan G protein-coupled receptor 146 (GPR146) promotes activity of hepatic sterol regulatory element binding protein 2 (SREBP2) through activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway, thereby regulating hepatic very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion, and subsequently circulating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and triglycerides (TG) levels. Remarkably, GPR146 deficiency reduces plasma cholesterol levels substantially in both wild-type and LDL receptor (LDLR)-deficient mice. Finally, aortic atherosclerotic lesions are reduced by 90% and 70%, respectively, in male and female LDLR-deficient mice upon GPR146 depletion. Taken together, these findings outline a regulatory role for the GPR146/ERK axis in systemic cholesterol metabolism and suggest that GPR146 inhibition could be an effective strategy to reduce plasma cholesterol levels and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Since elevated plasma triglycerides are an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an interesting target for drug development. However, investigation of LPL remains challenging, as most of the commercially available assays are limited to the determination of LPL activity. Thus, we focused on the evaluation of a simple in vitro real-time fluorescence assay for the measurement of LPL activity that can be combined with additional cell or molecular biological assays in the same cell sample. Our procedure allows for a more comprehensive characterization of potential regulatory compounds targeting the LPL system. The presented assay procedure provides several advantages over currently available commercial in vitro LPL activity assays:12-well cell culture plate design for the simultaneous investigation of up to three different compounds of interest (including all assay controls). 24 h real-time acquisition of LPL activity for the identification of the optimal time point for further measurements. Measurement of LPL activity can be supplemented by additional cell or molecular biological assays in the same cell sample.

Abstract
The endothelium consists of a monolayer of Endothelial Cells (ECs) which form
the inner cellular lining of veins, arteries, capillaries and lymphatic vessels. ECs interact with
the blood and lymph. The endothelium fulfils functions such as vasodilatation, regulation of
adhesion, infiltration of leukocytes, inhibition of platelet adhesion, vessel remodeling and
lipoprotein metabolism. ECs synthesize and release compounds such as Nitric Oxide (NO),
metabolites of arachidonic acid, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and enzymes that degrade
the extracellular matrix. Endothelial dysfunction represents a phenotype prone to atherogenesis
and may be used as a marker of atherosclerotic risk. Such dysfunction includes impaired
synthesis and availability of NO and an imbalance in the relative contribution of endothelialderived
relaxing factors and contracting factors such as endothelin-1 and angiotensin. This
dysfunction appears before the earliest anatomic evidence of atherosclerosis and could be an
important initial step in further development of atherosclerosis. Endothelial dysfunction was
historically treated with vitamin C supplementation and L-arginine supplementation. Short
term improvement of the expression of adhesion molecule and endothelial function during
antioxidant therapy has been observed. Statins are used in the treatment of hyperlipidaemia, a
risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Future studies should focus on identifying the mechanisms
involved in the beneficial effects of statins on the endothelium. This may help develop
drugs specifically aimed at endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
Epidemiological results revealed that there is an inverse correlation between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels and risks of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Mounting evidence supports that HDLs are atheroprotective, therefore, many therapeutic approaches have been developed to increase HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. Nevertheless, HDL-raising therapies, such as cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitors, failed to ameliorate cardiovascular outcomes in clinical trials, thereby casting doubt on the treatment of cardiovascular disease (CVD) by increasing HDL-C levels. Therefore, HDL-targeted interventional studies were shifted to increasing the number of HDL particles capable of promoting ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1)-mediated cholesterol efflux. One such approach was the development of reconstituted HDL (rHDL) particles that promote ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux from lipid-enriched macrophages. Here, we explore the manipulation of rHDL nanoparticles as a strategy for the treatment of CVD. In addition, we discuss technological capabilities and the challenge of relating preclinical in vivo mice research to clinical studies. Finally, by drawing lessons from developing rHDL nanoparticles, we also incorporate the viabilities and advantages of the development of a molecular imaging probe with HDL nanoparticles when applied to ASCVD, as well as gaps in technology and knowledge required for putting the HDL-targeted therapeutics into full gear.

Abstract
Objective:
Focus is shifting from HDL-C (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol) as predictive biomarker for cardiovascular disease (CVD) towards antiatherogenic HDL functionalities. Still, limited data exist on the prospective association of HDL function metrics with CVD events. The current work aimed to determine, if baseline HDL-C efflux capacity (CEC) is associated with future CVD events in the general population.
Approach and Results:
We performed a prospective study among participants of the PREVEND (Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-stage Disease) cohort (follow-up, 12 years). From the overall n=8592 subjects 325 with previous CVD events were excluded; of the remaining 8267 eligible participants all subjects with new CVD events during follow-up were selected and individually matched to controls for age, sex, smoking status, and HDL-C levels. CEC at baseline was quantified using human THP-1-derived macrophage foam cells and apolipoprotein B-depleted plasma. Despite identical HDL-C and apoA (apolipoprotein)-I levels between cases (n=351) and controls (n=354) CEC was significantly lower in cases (0.93±0.29 versus 1.01±0.24 arbitrary units;
P
<0.001). In all subjects combined, CEC correlated positively with HDL-C and apoA-I and negatively with body mass index, hsCRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein), and urinary albumin excretion. CEC was inversely associated with incident CVD events, both expressed per quartile and per 1 SD change (odds ratio, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.62–0.86;
P
<0.001); this association remained significant after adjustments for HDL-C, hsCRP, kidney function, and several other clinical covariates.
Conclusions:
Combined these data demonstrate that in the general population baseline CEC is significantly associated with the future development of CVD events independent of HDL-C and apoA-I plasma levels.

Abstract
The development of cardiovascular disease is intimately linked to elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in the blood. Hepatic LDL receptor (LDLR) levels regulate the amount of plasma LDL. We identified the secreted zinc metalloproteinase, bone morphogenetic protein 1 (BMP1), as responsible for the cleavage of human LDLR within its extracellular ligand-binding repeats at Gly171↓Asp172. The resulting 120 kDa membrane-bound C-terminal fragment (CTF) of LDLR had reduced capacity to bind LDL and when expressed in LDLR null cells had compromised LDL uptake as compared to the full length receptor. Pharmacological inhibition of BMP1 or siRNA-mediated knockdown prevented the generation of the 120 kDa CTF and resulted in an increase in LDL uptake into cells. The 120 kDa CTF was detected in the livers from humans and mice expressing human LDLR. Collectively, these results identify that BMP1 regulates cellular LDL uptake and may provide a target to modulate plasma LDL cholesterol.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome characterized by obesity, hyperglycemia and liver steatosis is becoming prevalent all over the world. Herein, a water insoluble polysaccharide (WIP) was isolated and identified from the sclerotium of Poria cocos, a widely used Traditional Chinese Medicine. WIP was confirmed to be a (1-3)-β-D-glucan with an average Mw of 4.486 × 106 Da by NMR and SEC-RI-MALLS analyses. Furthermore, oral treatment with WIP from P. cocos significantly improved glucose and lipid metabolism and alleviated hepatic steatosis in ob/ob mice. 16S DNA sequencing analysis of cecum content from WIP-treated mice indicated the increase of butyrate-producing bacteria Lachnospiracea, Clostridium. It was also observed that WIP treatment elevated the level of butyrate in gut, improved the gut mucosal integrity and activated the intestinal PPAR-γ pathway. Fecal transplantation experiments definitely confirmed the causative role of gut microbiota in mediating the benefits of WIP. It is the first report that the water insoluble polysaccharide from the sclerotium of P. cocos modulates gut microbiota to improve hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Thereby, WIP from P. cocos, as a prebiotic, has the potential for the prevention or cure of metabolic diseases and may elucidate new mechanism for the efficacies of this traditional herbal medicine on the regulation of lipid and glucose metabolism.

Abstract
Medicinal plants show important therapeutic value in chronic disease treatment. However, due to their diverse ingredients and complex biological effects, the molecular mechanisms of medicinal plants are yet to be explored. By means of several high-throughput platforms, here we show hawk tea extract (HTE) inhibits Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1)-mediated free cholesterol uptake, thereby inducing the transcription of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) downstream of the sterol response element binding protein 2 (SREBP2) pathway. Meanwhile, HTE suppresses hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α)-mediated transcription of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) and apolipoprotein B (APOB), thereby decreasing the production of very-low-density lipoprotein. The catechin EGCG ((-)-epigallocatechin gallate) and the flavonoids kaempferol and quercetin are identified as the bioactive components responsible for the effects on the NPC1L1-SREBP2-LDLR axis and HNF4α-MTP/APOB axis, respectively. Overall, hawk tea works as a previously unrecognized cholesterol-lowering agent in a multi-target and multi-component manner.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease has been the leading cause of death throughout the world for nearly 2 decades. Hypertriglyceridemia affects more than one-third of the population in the United States and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Despite the frequency of hypertriglyceridemia, treatment options are primarily limited to diet and exercise. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an enzyme responsible for clearing triglycerides from circulation, and its activity alone can directly control plasma triglyceride concentrations. Therefore, LPL is a good target for triglyceride-lowering therapeutics. One approach for treating hypertriglyceridemia may be to increase the amount of enzymatically active LPL by preventing its inhibition by angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4). However, little is known about how these two proteins interact. Therefore, we used hydrogen-deuterium exchange MS to identify potential binding sites between LPL and ANGPTL4. We validated sites predicted to be located at the protein-protein interface by using chimeric variants of LPL and an LPL peptide mimetic. We found that ANGPTL4 binds LPL near the active site at the lid domain and a nearby α-helix. Lipase lid domains cover the active site to control both enzyme activation and substrate specificity. Our findings suggest that ANGPTL4 specifically inhibits LPL by binding the lid domain, which could prevent substrate catalysis at the active site. The structural details of the LPL-ANGPTL4 interaction uncovered here may inform the development of therapeutics targeted to disrupt this interaction for the management of hypertriglyceridemia.

Abstract
Background Paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated enzyme with antioxidative properties, which may protect against the development of cardiovascular disease. Alcohol consumption increases HDL cholesterol, but the extent to which alcohol consumption gives rise to higher serum PON-1 activity is uncertain. Objective In a population-based study, we determined the relation of serum PON-1 activity with alcohol consumption when taking account of HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), its major apolipoprotein. Design A cross-sectional study was performed in 8224 participants of the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-Stage Disease (PREVEND) cohort. Alcohol consumption was categorized as 1) no/rarely (25.3%); 2) 0.1-10 g/d (49.3%); 3) 10-30 g/d (20.1%); and 4) >30 g/d (5.2%) with 1 drink equivalent to 10 g alcohol. Serum PON-1 activity was measured as its arylesterase activity (phenyl acetate as substrate). Results Median serum PON-1 activity was 50.8, 53.1, 54.4, and 55.7 U/L in the 4 categories of alcohol consumption, respectively (P < 0.001). Its increase paralleled the increments in HDL cholesterol and apoA-I. Notably, there was no further increase in PON-1 activity, HDL cholesterol, and apoA-I when alcohol consumption was increased from 10-30 g/d to >30 g/d. Multivariable linear regression analysis demonstrated that PON-1 activity was related to alcohol consumption independently from clinical covariates, high sensitivity C-reactive protein, and lipid concentrations, including HDL cholesterol (P < 0.001 for each category of alcohol consumption with no alcohol consumption as the reference category). Notably, as inferred from standardized β-coefficients, there was no difference in PON-1 activity between 10-30 g alcohol/d and >30 g alcohol/d. Conclusions Alcohol consumption is associated with an increase in serum PON-1 activity, but its effect seems to reach a plateau with alcohol consumption of 10-30 g/d.

Molecular basis for activation of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase by a compound that increases HDL cholesterol. eLife 2018; 7:41604. [PMID: 30479275 PMCID: PMC6277198 DOI: 10.7554/elife.41604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2018] [Accepted: 11/06/2018] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) and LCAT-activating compounds are being investigated as treatments for coronary heart disease (CHD) and familial LCAT deficiency (FLD). Herein we report the crystal structure of human LCAT in complex with a potent piperidinylpyrazolopyridine activator and an acyl intermediate-like inhibitor, revealing LCAT in an active conformation. Unlike other LCAT activators, the piperidinylpyrazolopyridine activator binds exclusively to the membrane-binding domain (MBD). Functional studies indicate that the compound does not modulate the affinity of LCAT for HDL, but instead stabilizes residues in the MBD and facilitates channeling of substrates into the active site. By demonstrating that these activators increase the activity of an FLD variant, we show that compounds targeting the MBD have therapeutic potential. Our data better define the substrate binding site of LCAT and pave the way for rational design of LCAT agonists and improved biotherapeutics for augmenting or restoring reverse cholesterol transport in CHD and FLD patients. Cholesterol is a fatty substance found throughout the body that is essential to our health. However, if too much cholesterol builds up in our blood vessels, it can cause blockages that lead to heart and kidney problems. The body removes excess cholesterol by sending out high-density lipoproteins (HDL) that capture the fatty molecules and carry them to the liver where they are eliminated. The first step in this process requires an enzyme called LCAT, which converts cholesterol into a form that HDL particles can efficiently pack and transport. The enzyme acts by interacting with HDL particles, and chemically joining cholesterol with another compound. Finding ways to make LCAT perform better and produce more HDL could improve treatments for heart disease. This could be particularly helpful to people with genetic changes that make LCAT defective. Several small molecules that ‘dial up’ the activity of LCAT have been identified, but how they act on the enzyme is not always well understood. Manthei et al. therefore set out to determine precisely how one such small activator promotes LCAT function. The experiments involved using a method known as crystallography to look at the structure of LCAT when it is attached to the small molecule. They also evaluated the activity of the enzyme and other aspects of the protein in the presence of the small molecule and HDL particles. Taken together, the results led Manthei et al. to suggest that the small molecule works by more efficiently bringing into LCAT the materials that this enzyme needs to create the transport-ready form of cholesterol. The small molecule also partially restored the activity of mutant LCAT found in human disease. This knowledge may help to design more drug-like chemicals to ‘boost’ the activity of LCAT and prevent heart and kidney disease, especially in people who carry a defective version of the enzyme.

Abstract
Most dyslipidemic conditions have been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Over the past few years major advances have been made regarding the genetic and metabolic basis of dyslipidemias. Detailed characterization of the genetic basis of familial lipid disorders and knowledge concerning the effects of environmental factors on the expression of dyslipidemias have increased substantially, contributing to a better diagnosis in individual patients. In addition to these developments, therapeutic options to lower cholesterol levels in clinical practice have expanded even further in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia and in subjects with cardiovascular disease. Finally, promising upcoming therapeutic lipid lowering strategies will be reviewed. All these advances will be discussed in relation to current clinical practice with special focus on common lipid disorders including familial dyslipidemias.

Abstract
The 'cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC)' assay is a simple in vitro measure of the capacities of individual sera to promote the first step of the reverse cholesterol transport pathway, the delivery of cellular cholesterol to plasma HDL. This review describes the cell biology of this model and critically assesses its application as a marker of cardiovascular risk. We describe the pathways for cell cholesterol export, current cell models used in the CEC assay with their limitations and consider the contribution that measurement of serum CEC provides to our understanding of HDL function in vivo.

Dietary protein dilution limits dyslipidemia in obesity through FGF21-driven fatty acid clearance. J Nutr Biochem 2018; 57:189-196.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated that dietary protein dilution (PD) can promote metabolic inefficiency and improve glucose metabolism. However, whether PD can promote other aspects of metabolic health, such as improve systemic lipid metabolism, and mechanisms therein remains unknown. Mouse models of obesity, such as high-fat-diet-fed C57Bl/6 N mice, and New Zealand Obese mice were fed normal (i.e., 20%P) and protein-dilute (i.e., 5%EP) diets. FGF21-/- and Cd36-/- and corresponding littermate +/+ controls were also studied to examine gene-diet interactions. Here, we show that chronic PD retards the development of hypertrigylceridemia and fatty liver in obesity and that this relies on the induction of the hepatokine fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21). Furthermore, PD greatly enhances systemic lipid homeostasis, the mechanisms by which include FGF21-stimulated, and cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) mediated, fatty acid clearance by oxidative tissues, such as heart and brown adipose tissue. Taken together, our preclinical studies demonstrate a novel nutritional strategy, as well as highlight a role for FGF21-stimulated systemic lipid metabolism, in combating obesity-related dyslipidemia.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The focus in cardiovascular research is shifting from determining mass HDL cholesterol levels toward investigating HDL functionalities as biomarker for cardiovascular disease. Myeloperoxidase (MPO), a main effector enzyme of the innate immune system, is increasingly implicated to negatively impact HDL function by various chemical modifications of HDL-associated proteins. This review summarizes recent insights how MPO affects HDL function in the setting of acute myocardial infarction (MI), mainly focusing on human data. RECENT FINDINGS First the mechanisms how MPO renders HDL particles dysfunctional and the usefulness of MPO as prospective biomarker for MI incidence and outcomes are described. Then the evidence for MPO causing specific HDL function impairments in MI and the clinical value of these observations is discussed in the context of the different HDL function assays employed. SUMMARY MPO modification of HDL in acute MI generates dysfunctional HDL. Features of HDL dysfunction can be used to stratify MI patients and seem associated with outcomes. More prospective studies are warranted to explore, if MPO-modified HDL is causally linked to severity and outcomes of MI. If this could be established, MPO would represent an attractive target to improve HDL dysfunction in MI and provide clinical benefit for patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Accumulating evidence has provided new insights regarding potentially effective therapeutic options targeting modulation of HDL metabolism, resulting in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. The gut microbiota has now been convincingly linked to host health, but its impact on host lipid metabolism, especially HDL metabolism, remains poorly understood. This review focuses on the recent progress in establishing associations between gut microbiota and host HDL metabolism. It also discusses causality and mechanisms, and how to translate the findings into clinical use. RECENT FINDINGS Recent human and animal studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiota composition can explain a substantial proportion of the individual variation in host blood lipid profiles. In addition, signaling molecules produced by gut microbiota have been shown to have potent effects on reverse cholesterol transport, a crucial atheroprotective function of HDL, which could subsequently influence the development of atherosclerosis. Ultimately, selective manipulation of gut microbiota may serve as an ideal therapeutic approach for improving HDL function and cardiovascular risk, although further studies are needed for a better understanding of which specific bacteria, or alternatively, which bacterial metabolites, are appropriate targets. SUMMARY We are just beginning to understand how the gut microbiota, a newly recognized endocrine organ system, influences HDL metabolism and atherosclerotic diseases. From recent experimental and clinical perspectives, it can be targeted for therapeutic benefit with respect to HDL function and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) exacerbates the risk of death due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Modifications to blood lipid metabolism which manifest as increases in circulating triglycerides and reductions in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are thought to contribute to increased risk. In CKD patients, higher HDL cholesterol levels were not associated with reduced mortality risk. Recent research has revealed numerous mechanisms by which HDL could favourably influence CVD risk. In this study, we compared plasma levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), HDL-associated S1P (HDL-S1P) and HDL-mediated protection against oxidative stress between CKD and control patients. METHODS High-density lipoprotein was individually isolated from 20 CKD patients and 20 controls. Plasma S1P, apolipoprotein M (apoM) concentrations, HDL-S1P content and the capacity of HDL to protect cardiomyocytes against doxorubicin-induced oxidative stress in vitro were measured. RESULTS Chronic kidney disease patients showed a typical profile with significant reductions in plasma HDL cholesterol and albumin and an increase in triglycerides and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha and IL-6). Unexpectedly, HDL-S1P content (P = .001) and HDL cardioprotective capacity (P = .034) were increased significantly in CKD patients. Linear regression analysis of which factors could influence HDL-S1P content showed an independent, negative and positive association with plasma albumin and apoM levels, respectively. DISCUSSION The novel and unexpected observation in this study is that uremic HDL is more effective than control HDL for protecting cardiomyocytes against oxidative stress. It is explained by its higher S1P content which we previously demonstrated to be the determinant of HDL-mediated cardioprotective capacity. Interestingly, lower concentrations of albumin in CKD are associated with higher HDL-S1P.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional properties of high density lipoproteins (HDL) are increasingly recognized to play a physiological role in atheroprotection. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by low HDL cholesterol, but the effect of chronic hyperglycemia on the anti-inflammatory capacity of HDL, a metric of HDL function, is unclear. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to establish the impact of T2DM on the HDL anti-inflammatory capacity, taking paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) activity and low grade inflammation into account. METHODS The HDL anti-inflammatory capacity, determined as the ability to suppress tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induced vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) mRNA expression in endothelial cells in vitro (higher values indicate lower anti-inflammatory capacity), PON-1 (arylesterase) activity, hs-C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), serum amyloid A (SAA) and TNF-α were compared in 40 subjects with T2DM (no insulin or statin treatment) and 36 non-diabetic subjects. RESULTS T2DM was associated with impaired HDL anti-inflammatory capacity (3.18 vs 1.05 fold increase in VCAM-1 mRNA expression; P < 0.001), coinciding with decreased HDL cholesterol (P = 0.001), apolipoprotein A-I (P = 0.038) and PON-1 activity (P = 0.023), as well as increased hs-CRP (P = 0.043) and TNF-α (P = 0.005). In all subjects combined, age- and sex-adjusted multivariable linear regression analysis demonstrated that impaired HDL anti-inflammatory capacity was associated with hyperglycemia (β = 0.499, P < 0.001), lower PON-1 activity (β = - 0.192, P = 0.030) and higher hs-CRP (β = 0.220, P = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS The HDL anti-inflammatory capacity is substantially impaired in T2DM, at least partly attributable to the degree of hyperglycemia, decreased PON-1 activity and enhanced low grade chronic inflammation. Decreased anti-inflammatory protection capacity of HDL conceivably contributes to the increased atherosclerosis risk associated with T2DM.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The atheroprotective properties of HDL are supported by epidemiological and preclinical research. However, the results of interventional trials paradoxically indicate that drugs increasing HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) do not reduce coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. Moreover, Mendelian randomization studies have shown no effect of HDL-C-modifying variants on CAD outcome. Thus, the protective effects of HDL particles are more governed by their functional status than their cholesterol content. In this context, any successful clinical exploitation of HDL will depend on the identification of HDL-related biomarkers, better than HDL-C level, for assessing cardiovascular risk and monitoring responses to treatment. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies have enlightened the role of ecto-F1-ATPase as a cell surface receptor for apoA-I, the major apolipoprotein of HDL, involved in the important metabolic and vascular atheroprotective functions of HDL. In the light of these findings, the clinical relevance of ecto-F1-ATPase in humans has recently been supported by the identification of serum F1-ATPase inhibitor (IF1) as an independent determinant of HDL-C, CAD risk and cardiovascular mortality in CAD patients. SUMMARY Serum IF1 measurement might be used as a novel HDL-related biomarker to better stratify risk in high-risk populations or to determine pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) catalyzes plasma cholesteryl ester formation and is defective in familial lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency (FLD), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by low high-density lipoprotein, anemia, and renal disease. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which compound A [3-(5-(ethylthio)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylthio)pyrazine-2-carbonitrile], a small heterocyclic amine, activates LCAT. The effect of compound A on LCAT was tested in human plasma and with recombinant LCAT. Mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance were used to determine compound A adduct formation with LCAT. Molecular modeling was performed to gain insight into the effects of compound A on LCAT structure and activity. Compound A increased LCAT activity in a subset (three of nine) of LCAT mutations to levels comparable to FLD heterozygotes. The site-directed mutation LCAT-Cys31Gly prevented activation by compound A. Substitution of Cys31 with charged residues (Glu, Arg, and Lys) decreased LCAT activity, whereas bulky hydrophobic groups (Trp, Leu, Phe, and Met) increased activity up to 3-fold (P < 0.005). Mass spectrometry of a tryptic digestion of LCAT incubated with compound A revealed a +103.017 m/z adduct on Cys31, consistent with the addition of a single hydrophobic cyanopyrazine ring. Molecular modeling identified potential interactions of compound A near Cys31 and structural changes correlating with enhanced activity. Functional groups important for LCAT activation by compound A were identified by testing compound A derivatives. Finally, sulfhydryl-reactive β-lactams were developed as a new class of LCAT activators. In conclusion, compound A activates LCAT, including some FLD mutations, by forming a hydrophobic adduct with Cys31, thus providing a mechanistic rationale for the design of future LCAT activators.
