Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:165. [PMID: 38399381 PMCID: PMC10892825 DOI: 10.3390/ph17020165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2024] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
CIGB-258 is a 3 kDa altered peptide ligand from heat shock protein (HSP) 60 that exhibits anti-inflammatory activity against the acute toxicity of carboxymethyllysine (CML) with antioxidant and anti-glycation activities via protection of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I). It is necessary to test a synergistic interaction between apoA-I and CIGB-258 in reconstituted high-density lipoproteins (rHDL). Several rHDLs were synthesized containing palmitoyloleoyl phosphatidylcholine (POPC), cholesterol, apoA-I, and CIGB-258 at molar ratios of 95:5:1:0, 95:5:1:0.1, 95:5:1:0.5, and 95:5:1:1 for rHDL-(1:0), rHDL-(1:0.1), rHDL-(1:0.5), and rHDL-(1:1), respectively. As the CIGB-258 content in rHDL was increased, the particle size of rHDL was 1.4-times higher than rHDL-(1:0) to rHDL-(1:1), from 60 nm to 83 nm, respectively. As the CIGB-258 content was increased, the rHDL showed the most resistance to isothermal denaturation by a urea treatment, and rHDL-(1:1) exhibited the highest structural stability and the strongest antioxidant ability against LDL oxidation. Co-treatment of rHDL-(1:0), rHDL-(1:0.5), and rHDL-(1:1) resulted in up to 10%, 24%, and 34% inhibition of HDL glycation, inhibition of HDL glycation, which was caused by the CML, with protection of apoA-I. Microinjection of each rHDL into zebrafish embryos in the presence of CML showed that a higher CIGB-258 content in rHDL was associated with higher survivability with the least inflammation and apoptosis. Furthermore, an intraperitoneal injection of rHDL and CML showed that a higher CIGB-258 content in rHDL was also associated with higher survivability of zebrafish and faster recovery of swimming ability. The rHDL-(1:1) group showed the lowest triglyceride, AST, and ALT serum levels with the least production of interleukin-6, oxidized product, and neutrophil infiltration in hepatic tissue. In conclusion, CIGB-258 could bind well to phospholipids and cholesterol to stabilize apoA-I in the rHDL structure against denaturation stress and larger particle sizes. The rHDL containing CIGB-258 enhanced the in vitro antioxidant ability against LDL oxidation, the anti-glycation activity to protect HDL, and the in vivo anti-inflammatory activity against CML toxicity in zebrafish adults and embryos. Overall, incorporating apoA-I and CIGB-258 in rHDL resulted in a synergistic interaction to enhance the structural and functional correlations in a dose-dependent manner of CIGB-258.

Parkinsonism Relat Disord 2023; 117:105881. [PMID: 37951145 DOI: 10.1016/j.parkreldis.2023.105881] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/13/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many studies have examined the positive association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and the risk of Parkinson's disease (PD). Dyslipidemia has been reported to be prevalent in patients with diabetes; thus, lipid levels and the drugs for dyslipidemia could influence the development of PD in patients with DM. This study aimed to examine the association between lipid levels and the risk of PD in individuals with DM and evaluate whether the association changes with the use of statins. METHODS This nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study included individuals with DM according to the International Classification of Diseases between 2009 and 2012. Among the 2,361,633 patients with DM followed up for up to 9 years, 17,046 were newly diagnosed with PD. Patients with DM were categorized into quartile groups of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. RESULTS There was an inverse association between lipid levels and PD development in the unadjusted model; however, this relationship became less significant after adjusting the use of statins in triglyceride and total cholesterol. In the analysis stratified by statin use, total cholesterol level was associated with decreased PD risk in non-statin users with DM; however, there was no significant association between total cholesterol level and PD risk in statin users. CONCLUSION We found an inverse relationship between lipid levels and PD risk in patients with DM, which was influenced by statin use. Future studies about optimal target lipid levels relevant to PD risk considering statin dose in DM patients are needed.

Human Serum Amyloid a Impaired Structural Stability of High-Density Lipoproteins (HDL) and Apolipoprotein (Apo) A-I and Exacerbated Glycation Susceptibility of ApoA-I and HDL. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27134255. [PMID: 35807498 PMCID: PMC9268363 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27134255] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 06/30/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Human serum amyloid A (SAA) is an exchangeable apolipoprotein (apo) in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) that influences HDL quality and functionality, particularly in the acute phase of inflammation. On the other hand, the structural and functional correlations of HDL containing SAA and apoA-I have not been reported. The current study was designed to compare the change in HDL quality with increasing SAA content in the lipid-free and lipid-bound states in reconstituted HDL (rHDL). The expressed recombinant human SAA1 (13 kDa) was purified to at least 98% and characterized in the lipid-free and lipid-bound states with apoA-I. The dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) binding ability of apoA-I was impaired severely by the addition of SAA, while SAA alone could not bind with DMPC. The recombinant human SAA1 was incorporated into the rHDL (molar ratio 95:5:1, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC): cholesterol: apoA-I) with various apoA-I:SAA molar ratios from 1:0 to 1:0.5, 1:1 and 1:2. With increasing SAA1 content, the rHDL particle size was reduced from 98 Å to 93 Å, and the α-helicity of apoA-I:SAA was decreased from 73% to 40% for (1:0) and (1:2), respectively. The wavelength maximum fluorescence (WMF) of tryptophan in rHDL was red-shifted from 339 nm to 345 nm for (1:0) and (1:2) of apoA-I:SAA, respectively, indicating that the addition of SAA to rHDL destabilized the secondary structure of apoA-I. Upon denaturation by urea treatment from 0 M to 8 M, SAA showed only a 3 nm red-shift in WMF, while apoA-I showed a 16 nm red-shift in WMF, indicating that SAA is resistant to denaturation and apoA-I had higher conformational flexibility than SAA. The glycation reaction of apoA-I in the presence of fructose was accelerated up to 1.8-fold by adding SAA in a dose-dependent manner than that of apoA-I alone. In conclusion, the incorporation of SAA in rHDL impaired the structural stability of apoA-I and exacerbated glycation of HDL and apoA-I.

Cho KH. The Current Status of Research on High-Density Lipoproteins (HDL): A Paradigm Shift from HDL Quantity to HDL Quality and HDL Functionality. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:3967. [PMID: 35409326 PMCID: PMC8999423 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23073967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 22.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2022] [Revised: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The quantity of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) is represented as the serum HDL-C concentration (mg/dL), while the HDL quality manifests as the diverse features of protein and lipid content, extent of oxidation, and extent of glycation. The HDL functionality represents several performance metrics of HDL, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cholesterol efflux activities. The quantity and quality of HDL can change during one's lifetime, depending on infection, disease, and lifestyle, such as dietary habits, exercise, and smoking. The quantity of HDL can change according to age and gender, such as puberty, middle-aged symptoms, climacteric, and the menopause. HDL-C can decrease during disease states, such as acute infection, chronic inflammation, and autoimmune disease, while it can be increased by regular aerobic exercise and healthy food consumption. Generally, high HDL-C at the normal level is associated with good HDL quality and functionality. Nevertheless, high HDL quantity is not always accompanied by good HDL quality or functionality. The HDL quality concerns the morphology of the HDL, such as particle size, shape, and number. The HDL quality also depends on the composition of the HDL, such as apolipoproteins (apoA-I, apoA-II, apoC-III, serum amyloid A, and α-synuclein), cholesterol, and triglyceride. The HDL quality is also associated with the extent of HDL modification, such as glycation and oxidation, resulting in the multimerization of apoA-I, and the aggregation leads to amyloidogenesis. The HDL quality frequently determines the HDL functionality, which depends on the attached antioxidant enzyme activity, such as the paraoxonase and cholesterol efflux activity. Conventional HDL functionality is regression, the removal of cholesterol from atherosclerotic lesions, and the removal of oxidized species in low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Recently, HDL functionality was reported to expand the removal of β-amyloid plaque and inhibit α-synuclein aggregation in the brain to attenuate Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, respectively. More recently, HDL functionality has been associated with the susceptibility and recovery ability of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by inhibiting the activity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The appearance of dysfunctional HDL is frequently associated with many acute infectious diseases and chronic aging-related diseases. An HDL can be a suitable biomarker to diagnose many diseases and their progression by monitoring the changes in its quantity and quality in terms of the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory abilities. An HDL can be a protein drug used for the removal of plaque and as a delivery vehicle for non-soluble drugs and genes. A dysfunctional HDL has poor HDL quality, such as a lower apoA-I content, lower antioxidant ability, smaller size, and ambiguous shape. The current review analyzes the recent advances in HDL quantity, quality, and functionality, depending on the health and disease state during one's lifetime.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid biomarkers have potential neuroprotective effects in Parkinson's disease (PD) and there is limited evidence in the field. OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the association between comprehensive blood lipid biomarkers and PD. METHODS A total of 205 PD patients and 102 non-PD subjects were included from Early Parkinson's disease Longitudinal Singapore (PALS) cohort. We investigated 6 serum lipid biomarkers including total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and apolipoprotein B (Apo B). PD patients were further classified into mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and normal cognition (NC) subgroups. We conducted a cross-sectionals study to examine the association between lipids and PD and further explored the relationship between lipids and PD-MCI. RESULTS PD patients had significantly lower level of lipid panel including TC, TG, HDL-C, Apo A1, LDL-C, and Apo B (all p < 0.05). TC, TG, Apo A1, and Apo B levels were independent protective factors (p < 0.05) for PD in the logistic regression model. PD-MCI group had significantly higher mean TC, TG, and Apo A1 levels compared to PD-NC group. Higher TC, TG, and Apo A1 levels were independent risk factors (p < 0.05) for PD-MCI. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that PD patients had significantly lower levels of lipid biomarkers while PD-MCI patients had higher levels of TC, TG, and Apo A1. TC, TG, and Apo A1 may be useful biomarkers for PD-MCI.
