Abstract
With the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) worldwide, finding reliable and clinically relevant biomarkers to predict acute cardiovascular events has been a major aim of the scientific and medical community. Improvements of the understanding of the pathophysiological pathways of the disease highlighted the major role of lipoprotein particles, and these past decades have seen the emergence of a number of new methodologies to separate, measure and quantitate lipoproteins. Those methods, also known as advanced lipoprotein testing methods (ALT), have gained acceptance in the field of CVD risk assessment and have proven their clinical relevance. In the context of worldwide standardization and harmonization of biological assays, efforts have been initiated toward standardization of ALT methods. However, the complexity of lipoprotein particles and the multiple approaches and methodologies reported to quantify them have rendered these initiatives a critical issue. In this context and to better understand these challenges, this review presents a summary of the major methods available for ALT with the aim to point out the major differences in terms of procedures and quantities actually measured and to discuss the resulting comparability issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Besides a significant reduction of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, statins moderately increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. In vitro studies have indicated that this effect may be the result of an increased expression of apolipoprotein (apo)A-I, the main protein component of HDL. The aim of the present study was to investigate in vivo the effect of rosuvastatin on apoA-I expression and secretion in a transgenic mouse model for human apoA-I. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Human apoA-I transgenic mice were treated for 28 days with 5, 10 or 20 mg·kg(-1) ·day(-1) of rosuvastatin, the most effective statin in raising HDL levels. Possible changes of apoA-I expression by treatment were investigated by quantitative real-time RT-PCR on RNA extracted from mouse livers. The human apoA-I secretion rate was determined in primary hepatocytes isolated from transgenic mice from each group after treatment. KEY RESULTS Rosuvastatin treatment with 5 and 10 mg·kg(-1) ·day(-1) did not affect apoA-I plasma levels, whereas a significant decrease was observed in mice treated with 20 mg·kg(-1) ·day(-1) of rosuvastatin (-16%, P < 0.01). Neither relative hepatic mRNA concentrations of apoA-I nor apoA-I secretion rates from primary hepatocytes were influenced by rosuvastatin treatment at each tested dose. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS In human apoA-I transgenic mice, rosuvastatin treatment does not increase either apoA-I transcription and hepatic secretion, or apoA-I plasma levels. These results support the hypothesis that other mechanisms may account for the observed HDL increase induced by statin therapy in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to develop a new model for kinetic studies of Apolipoprotein A-I of HDL (Apo A-I-HDL) labelled with stable isotope by using HDL subclasses isolated with fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC). MATERIALS AND METHODS Apo A-I-HDL kinetics were studied by infusing [5.5.5-(2)H(3)]-leucine for 14 h in six healthy subjects. Prebeta(1) and alphaHDL were separated by FPLC and total HDL by ultracentrifugation (HDL-UC). RESULTS The tracer-to-tracee ratios were higher in prebeta(1) HDL than in HDL-UC or alphaHDL. Leucine enrichments found in HDL-UC were higher compared with alphaHDL, suggesting that HDL-UC were composed of a mixture of Apo A-I-alphaHDL and Apo A-I-prebeta(1) HDL. Kinetic analysis of data obtained from FPLC was achieved using a multicompartmental model, including a conversion between prebeta(1) and alphaHDL compartments. The production rate of prebeta(1) HDL was 7.72 +/- 2.86 mg kg(-1) d(-1) (mean +/- SD). Prebeta(1) HDL were converted to alphaHDL at a rate of 96.24 +/- 42.99 pool d(-1), and the synthesis rate of prebeta(1) HDL from alphaHDL was 10-fold slower: 7.09 +/- 4.51 pool d(-1). Apo A-I-FCR of HDL-UC was estimated using a one-compartment model (0.165 +/- 0.074 pool d(-1)), and was higher but not significantly compared with FCR of Apo A-I-alphaHDL (0.112 +/- 0.026 pool d(-1)) calculated with the new model. CONCLUSIONS This study reports for the first time a model involving enrichments of Apo A-I in prebeta(1) and alphaHDL which allowed the measure of Apo A-I cycling within HDL fraction and will aid better understanding of kinetics of HDL in humans.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the isolation of HDL by fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) to perform kinetics studies of apolipoprotein (apo)A-I-HDL labelled with a stable isotope. Comparison between FPLC and ultracentrifugation has been made. ApoA-I-HDL kinetics were studied by infusion of [5.5.5-(2)H(3)]leucine for 14 h in five subjects. Using FPLC, prebeta(1) HDL and alphaHDL (HDL(2) and HDL(3)) were separated from 200 microl of plasma samples. Total HDL was isolated by sequential ultracentrifugation (HDL-UC). The tracer-to-tracee ratio was higher in prebeta(1) HDL than in total HDL-UC. The higher leucine enrichment found in total HDL-UC compared to alphaHDL suggested the existence of a mixture of apoA-I-HDL sub-classes. From this difference in enrichments, the turnover rate of total HDL-UC, usually assumed to be alphaHDL, was probably overestimated in previous studies. To our knowledge, this study is the first report which provides a convenient tool to distinguish enrichments of apoA-I in prebeta(1) HDL and alphaHDL from total HDL previously used for kinetic measurements. This original and new method should help to understand the kinetics of HDL in humans and the reverse cholesterol transport dynamics.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the major glycolipid component of gram-negative bacterial outer membranes, is a potent endotoxin responsible for pathophysiological symptoms characteristic of infection. The observation that the majority of LPS is found in association with plasma lipoproteins has prompted the suggestion that sequestering of LPS by lipid particles may form an integral part of a humoral detoxification mechanism. Previous studies on the biological properties of isolated lipoproteins used differential ultracentrifugation to separate the major subclasses. To preserve the integrity of the lipoproteins, we have analyzed the LPS distribution, specificity, binding capacity, and kinetics of binding to lipoproteins in human whole blood or plasma by using high-performance gel permeation chromatography and fluorescent LPS of three different chemotypes. The average distribution of O111:B4, J5, or Re595 LPS in whole blood from 10 human volunteers was 60% (+/-8%) high-density lipoprotein (HDL), 25% (+/-7%) low-density lipoprotein, and 12% (+/-5%) very low density lipoprotein. The saturation capacity of lipoproteins for all three LPS chemotypes was in excess of 200 microg/ml. Kinetic analysis however, revealed a strict chemotype dependence. The binding of Re595 or J5 LPS was essentially complete within 10 min, and subsequent redistribution among the lipoprotein subclasses occurred to attain similar distributions as O111:B4 LPS at 40 min. We conclude that under simulated physiological conditions, the binding of LPS to lipoproteins is highly specific, HDL has the highest binding capacity for LPS, the saturation capacity of lipoproteins for endotoxin far exceeds the LPS concentrations measured in clinical situations, and the kinetics of LPS association with lipoproteins display chemotype-dependent differences.

Abstract
Copper binding to apolipoprotein B-100 (apo B-100) and its reduction by endogenous components of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) represent critical steps in copper-mediated LDL oxidation, where cuprous ion (Cu(I)) generated from cupric ion (Cu(II)) reduction is the real trigger for lipid peroxidation. Although the copper-reducing capacity of the lipid components of LDL has been studied extensively, we developed a model to specifically analyze the potential copper reducing activity of its protein moiety (apo B-100). Apo B-100 was isolated after solubilization and extraction from size exclusion-HPLC purified LDL. We obtained, for the first time, direct evidence for apo B-100-mediated copper reduction in a process that involves protein-derived radical formation. Kinetics of copper reduction by isolated apo B-100 was different from that of LDL, mainly because apo B-100 showed a single phase-exponential kinetic, instead of the already described biphasic kinetics for LDL (namely alpha-tocopherol-dependent and independent phases). While at early time points, the LDL copper reducing activity was higher due to the presence of alpha-tocopherol, at longer time points kinetics of copper reduction was similar in both LDL and apo B-100 samples. Electron paramagnetic resonance studies of either LDL or apo B-100 incubated with Cu(II), in the presence of the spin trap 2-methyl-2-nitroso propane (MNP), indicated the formation of protein-tryptophanyl radicals. Our results supports that apo B-100 plays a critical role in copper-dependent LDL oxidation, due to its lipid-independent-copper reductive ability.

Abstract
Past studies of atherosclerosis in mice have used chow-based diets supplemented with cholesterol, lipid, and sodium cholate to overcome species resistance to lesion formation. Similar diets have been routinely used in studies with LDL receptor-deficient (LDLR(-/-)) mice. The nonphysiological nature and potential toxicity of cholate-containing diets have led to speculation that atherogenesis in these mice may not accurately reflect the human disease process. We have designed a semipurified AIN-76A-based diet that can be fed in powdered, pelleted, or liquid form and manipulated for the precise evaluation of diet-genetic interactions in murine atherosclerosis. LDLR(-/-) mice were randomly assigned among 4 diets (n=6/diet) as follows: 1, control, 10% kcal lipid; 2, high fat (40% kcal), moderate cholesterol (0.5% by weight); 3, high fat, high cholesterol (1.25% by weight); and 4, high fat, high cholesterol, and 0.5% (wt/wt) sodium cholate. Fasting serum cholesterol was increased in all cholesterol-supplemented mice compared with controls after 6 or 12 weeks of feeding (P<0.01). The total area of oil red O-stained atherosclerotic lesions was determined from digitally scanned photographs. In contrast to the control group, all mice in cholesterol-supplemented dietary groups 2 to 4 had lesions involving 7.01% to 12.79% area of the thoracic and abdominal aorta at 12 weeks (P<0.002, for each group versus control). The distribution pattern of atherosclerotic lesions was highly reproducible and comparable. The histological features of lesions in mice fed cholate-free or cholate-containing diets were similar. This study shows that sodium cholate is not necessary for the formation of atherosclerosis in LDLR(-/-) mice and that precisely defined semipurified diets are a valuable tool for the examination of diet-gene interactions.

Abstract
In general, plasma concentrations of high density lipoproteins (HDL) are inversely related to the incidence of coronary artery disease. One exception to this trend is individuals with apolipoprotein A-I(Milano) (apo A-IM), a molecular variant of apo A-I, which results in very low plasma apo A-I and HDL-cholesterol levels. Despite these low levels, and other lipoprotein defects, individuals with this mutation have no increased risk for cardiovascular disease. As a first step in proving why apo A-IM carriers appear to be protected from the pro-atherogenic effect of a low HDL, transgenic mice expressing apo A-IM were generated. Mice expressing either wild-type human apo A-I or apo A-IM, together with human apo A-II, were crossed into mice lacking murine apo A-I. Apo A-IM/A-II mice had lower cholesterol and HDL plasma levels compared to apo A-I/A-II mice. Moreover, as in human carriers, apo A-IM mice were characterized by elevated triglyceride plasma levels and by the presence of a population of very small HDL particles. These results indicate that the expression of apo A-IM in a mouse model reproduces the major lipid/lipoprotein abnormalities observed in human carriers. Thus, apo A-IM transgenic mice appear to be a suitable model in which to assess whether the mutation has an anti-atherogenic effect.

Abstract
AbstractWe describe a new technique for measuring LDL size by high-performance gel-filtration chromatography (HPGC). LDL was subjected to chromatography, and the column effluent was monitored at 280 nm. The retention time of the LDL peak was used to calculate the LDL diameter. We compared the HPGC method with gradient gel electrophoresis (GGE) on 2–10% nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels. In a group of 60 non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients, LDL size as measured by HPGC and GGE was highly correlated (r = 0.88, P <0.001). Good reproducibility, high precision, and the possibility of analyzing large series of samples are the main advantages of the automated HPGC method. Within-run and between-run CV for LDL size measured by HPGC were <0.1% and 0.2%, respectively. There was a significant inverse association between LDL size measured by HPGC and the logarithm of plasma triglycerides (r = −0.84, P <0.001), and a significant positive association with the LDL free cholesterol/protein ratio (r = 0.89, P <0.001).

Abstract
Various modes of chromatography are available for lipoprotein separation. Gel permeation and affinity chromatography are used for preparative purposes and to separate lipoproteins according to size and apolipoprotein content, respectively. Development of rigid supports for gel permeation has led to large improvements in speed and resolution. Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of apolipoproteins offers the best performance in terms of speed and resolution of structural variants. Due to its high speed and superior resolving power, the recently developed technique of capillary electrophoresis should emerge as an important method for lipoprotein analysis.

Abstract
Although it seems clear that the trypanolytic factor in human serum capable of killing Trypanosoma brucei brucei is high density lipoprotein (HDL), it nevertheless remains controversial as to whether the trypanolytic properties of HDL are confined to a specific subclass or whether all particles have activity. In the present study, we have compared the lytic activities of serum fractions from six normal individuals prepared by gradient ultracentrifugation and also, to avoid ultracentrifugally-induced loss of HDL apolipoproteins, by gel filtration using fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC). All sera displayed trypanolytic activity in fractions corresponding to the general density (rho = 1.06-1.20 g ml-1) and size (59-440 kDa) limits conventionally used to describe bulk human HDL, the particles between rho = 1.18-1.20 g ml-1 and between 214-440 kDa being particularly lytic. But some sera additionally contained fractions with powerful activity outside these density (rho > 1.24 g ml-1) and size (> 1000 kDa) ranges. Nevertheless, such fractions were considered to contain material with HDL characteristics; apolipoprotein A-I, the major protein of HDL, was always present and the lytic activity of the sera could be completely neutralized by absorption with HDL antiserum. We conclude that all of the trypanolytic activity in human sera is associated with HDL particles and that it is a property of several HDL subpopulations with very different density and size characteristics. Presumably the well-recognized wide variation in trypanocidal activity of normal human sera reflects differences in the quantities of these HDL subpopulations rather than in the total amount of a single, uniquely lytic particle.

Abstract
Human endothelial cells (EA.hy 926 line) were enriched with cholesterol using cationized low density lipoprotein (LDL). Cholesterol-loaded cells interacted with native apolipoprotein (apo) E-free high density lipoprotein3 (HDL)3 as well as with dimethyl suberimidate-modified HDL3 (DMS-HDL3). At 4 degrees C both HDL preparations showed a saturable high affinity binding with a KD of 31 and 50 micrograms of protein/ml and a Bmax of 226 and 436 ng/mg cell protein for native HDL3 and DMS-HDL3 particles, respectively. Competition of binding of 5 micrograms apo E-free 125I-labelled HDL3/ml by unlabelled DMS-HDL3 and tetranitromethane-treated HDL3 (TNM-HDL3) was very poor, whereas unlabelled native HDL3 competed very effectively with 125I-labelled HDL3 binding. Thus, both types of modified HDL did not compete for the high affinity binding sites for native HDL. Unlabelled native HDL3 and unlabelled DMS-HDL3 both competed for the binding of 125I-labelled DMS-HDL3 very effectively. These experiments indicate that there are two distinct high affinity binding sites for HDL on cationized LDL-loaded EA.hy 926 cells: one specific HDL binding site, which only binds native HDL, and a second binding site for both native HDL and DMS-HDL. The modified HDL fractions were used to study the relation between HDL binding and HDL-mediated efflux. Efflux of cell cholesterol was measured as the increase of cholesterol mass in the medium after 24 h of incubation with 0.2 mg native HDL3/ml, or the same amount of modified HDL3. DMS-HDL3-mediated efflux was identical to efflux mediated by native HDL3. TNM-HDL3 also induced efflux of cell cholesterol; however, efflux induced by TNM-HDL3 was only 45-50% of the amount obtained with native HDL3. So both DMS- and TNM-modified HDL3 induced efflux of cholesterol, although these particles do not bind to the specific high affinity sites for native HDL. These results do not indicate a link between binding of HDL to specific receptors for native HDL and HDL-mediated efflux of cholesterol from loaded endothelial cells.

Abstract
Human VLDL, LDL and HDL (very-low-, low-, and high-density lipoproteins) were isolated from plasma by gel permeation chromatography with one pre-ultracentrifugation step. The column effluent was monitored at 280 nm. The cholesterol content of the fractions correlated well with fractions from sequential ultracentrifugation (VLDL, r = 0.839; LDL, r = 0.924; HDL, r = 0.766) or precipitation (LDL, r = 0.975; HDL, r = 0.972) methods. The average triglyceride, phospholipid and protein compositions of the separated lipoprotein fractions were close to those of the ultracentrifugally isolated fractions reported previously. Apolipoproteins A1 and B were determined from fractions to confirm the right distribution between different lipoproteins.

Abstract
Plasma HDL can be classified according to their apolipoprotein content into at least two types of lipoprotein particles: lipoproteins containing both apo A-I and apo A-II (LP A-I/A-II) and lipoproteins with apo A-I but without apo A-II (LP A-I). LP A-I and LP A-I/A-II were isolated by immuno-affinity chromatography. LP A-I has a higher cholesterol content and less protein compared to LP A-I/A-II. The average particle mass of LP A-I is higher (379 kDa) than the average particle weight of LP A-I/A-II (269 kDa). The binding of 125I-LP A-I to HepG2 cells at 4 degrees C, as well as the uptake of [3H]cholesteryl ether-labelled LP A-I by HepG2 cells at 37 degrees C, was significantly higher than the binding and uptake of LP A-I/A-II. It is likely that both binding and uptake are mediated by apo A-I. Our results do not provide evidence in favor of a specific role for apo A-II in the binding and uptake of HDL by HepG2 cells.
