Abstract
In individuals with very low high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) cholesterol, such as Tangier disease, LCAT deficiency, and familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia, there is an increased risk of premature atherosclerosis. However, analyzes based on comparisons of populations with small variations in HDL-C mediated by polygenic alterations do not confirm these findings, suggesting that there is an indirect association or heterogeneity in the pathophysiological mechanisms related to the reduction of HDL-C. Trials that evaluated some of the HDL functions demonstrate a more robust degree of association between the HDL system and atherosclerotic risk, but as they were not designed to modify lipoprotein functionality, there is insufficient data to establish a causal relationship. We currently have randomized clinical trials of therapies that increase HDL-C concentration by various mechanisms, and this HDL-C elevation has not independently demonstrated a reduction in the risk of cardiovascular events. Therefore, this evidence shows that (a) measuring HDL-C as a way of estimating HDL-related atheroprotective system function is insufficient and (b) we still do not know how to increase cardiovascular protection with therapies aimed at modifying HDL metabolism. This leads us to a greater effort to understand the mechanisms of molecular action and cellular interaction of HDL, completely abandoning the traditional view focused on the plasma concentration of HDL-C. In this review, we will detail this new understanding and the new horizon for using the HDL system to mitigate residual atherosclerotic risk.

Abstract
Syndromes associated with LCAT deficiency, a rare autosomal recessive condition, include fish-eye disease (FED) and familial LCAT deficiency (FLD). FLD is more severe and characterized by early and progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). No treatment is currently available for FLD, but novel therapeutics are under development. Furthermore, although biomarkers of LCAT deficiency have been identified, their suitability to monitor disease progression and therapeutic efficacy is unclear, as little data exist on the rate of progression of renal disease. Here, we systematically review observational studies of FLD, FED, and heterozygous subjects, which summarize available evidence on the natural history and biomarkers of LCAT deficiency, in order to guide the development of novel therapeutics. We identified 146 FLD and 53 FED patients from 219 publications, showing that both syndromes are characterized by early corneal opacity and markedly reduced HDL-C levels. Proteinuria/hematuria were the first signs of renal impairment in FLD, followed by rapid decline of renal function. Furthermore, LCAT activity toward endogenous substrates and the percentage of circulating esterified cholesterol (EC%) were the best discriminators between these two syndromes. In FLD, higher levels of total, non-HDL, and unesterified cholesterol were associated with severe CKD. We reveal a nonlinear association between LCAT activity and EC% levels, in which subnormal levels of LCAT activity were associated with normal EC%. This review provides the first step toward the identification of disease biomarkers to be used in clinical trials and suggests that restoring LCAT activity to subnormal levels may be sufficient to prevent renal disease progression.

Abstract
The ability to accept cholesterol from cells and to promote reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) represents the best characterized antiatherogenic function of HDL. Studies carried out in animal models have unraveled the multiple mechanisms by which these lipoproteins drive cholesterol efflux from macrophages and cholesterol uptake to the liver. Moreover, the influence of HDL composition and the role of lipid transporters have been clarified by using suitable transgenic models or through experimental design employing pharmacological or nutritional interventions. Cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC), an in vitro assay developed to offer a measure of the first step of RCT, has been shown to associate with cardiovascular risk in several human cohorts, supporting the atheroprotective role of RCT in humans as well. However, negative data in other cohorts have raised concerns on the validity of this biomarker. In this review we will present the most relevant data documenting the role of HDL in RCT, as assessed in classical or innovative methodological approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND LCAT (lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase) deficiency is characterized by two distinct phenotypes, familial LCAT deficiency (FLD) and Fish Eye disease (FED). This is the first systematic review evaluating the ethnic distribution of LCAT deficiency, with particular emphasis on Latin America and the discussion of three Mexican-Mestizo probands. METHODS A systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis) Statement in Pubmed and SciELO. Articles which described subjects with LCAT deficiency syndromes and an assessment of the ethnic group to which the subject pertained, were included. RESULTS The systematic review revealed 215 cases (154 FLD, 41 FED and 20 unclassified) pertaining to 33 ethnic/racial groups. There was no association between genetic alteration and ethnicity. The mean age of diagnosis was 42 ± 16.5 years, with fish eye disease identified later than familial LCAT deficiency (55 ± 13.8 vs. 41 ± 14.7 years respectively). The prevalence of premature coronary heart disease was significantly greater in FED vs. FLD. In Latin America, 48 cases of LCAT deficiency have been published from six countries (Argentina (1 unclassified), Brazil (38 FLD), Chile (1 FLD), Columbia (1 FLD), Ecuador (1 FLD) and Mexico (4 FLD, 1 FED and 1 unclassified). Of the Mexican probands, one showed a novel LCAT mutation. CONCLUSIONS The systematic review shows that LCAT deficiency syndromes are clinically and genetically heterogeneous. No association was confirmed between ethnicity and LCAT mutation. There was a significantly greater risk of premature coronary artery disease in fish eye disease compared to familial LCAT deficiency. In FLD, the emphasis should be in preventing both cardiovascular disease and the progression of renal disease, while in FED, cardiovascular risk management should be the priority. The LCAT mutations discussed in this article are the only ones reported in the Mexican- Amerindian population.

Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) catalyzes the maturation of high-density lipoprotein. Homozygosity for loss-of-function mutations causes familial LCAT deficiency (FLD), characterized by corneal opacities, anemia, and renal involvement. This study sought to characterize kidney biopsy findings and clinical outcomes in a family with FLD. STUDY DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS 2 (related) index patients with clinically apparent FLD were initially identified. 110 of 122 family members who consented to genetic analysis were also studied. PREDICTORS Demographic and laboratory parameters (including lipid profiles and LCAT activity) and full sequence analysis of the LCAT gene. Kidney histologic examination was performed with samples from 6 participants. OUTCOMES Cardiovascular and renal events during a median follow-up of 12 years. Estimation of annual rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Analysis of variance, linear regression analysis, and Fine-Gray competing-risk survival analysis. RESULTS 9 homozygous, 57 heterozygous, and 44 unaffected family members were identified. In all affected individuals, full sequence analysis of the LCAT gene revealed a mutation (c.820C>T) predicted to cause a proline to serine substitution at amino acid 274 (P274S). Homozygosity caused a complete loss of LCAT activity. Kidney biopsy findings demonstrated lipid deposition causing glomerular basement membrane thickening, mesangial expansion, and "foam-cell" infiltration of kidney tissue. Tubular atrophy, glomerular sclerosis, and complement fixation were associated with worse kidney outcomes. Estimated glomerular filtration rate deteriorated among homozygous family members at an average annual rate of 3.56 mL/min/1.73 m2. The incidence of cardiovascular and renal complications was higher among homozygous family members compared with heterozygous and unaffected members. Mild thrombocytopenia was a common finding among homozygous participants. LIMITATIONS The presence of cardiovascular disease was mainly based on medical history. CONCLUSIONS The P274S LCAT mutation was found to cause FLD with renal involvement. Tubular atrophy, glomerular sclerosis, and complement fixation were associated with a worse renal prognosis.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent malignancy in children. With the use of more modern, efficient treatments, 5-year survival has reached more than 90% in this population. However, this achievement comes with many secondary and long-term effects since more than 65% of the survivors experience at least one severe complication, including the metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases. The main objective of the present work was to characterize the composition of HDL particles isolated from pediatric ALL survivors. HDLs from 8 metabolically healthy ALL survivors, 8 metabolically unhealthy ALL survivors and 8 age- and gender-matched controls were analyzed. The HDL fraction from the survivors contained less cholesterol than the controls. In addition, proteomic analyses revealed an enrichment of pro-thrombotic (e.g., fibrinogen) and pro-inflammatory (e.g., amyloid A) proteins in the HDLs deriving from metabolically unhealthy survivors. These results indicate an alteration in the composition of lipid and protein content of HDL from childhood ALL survivors with metabolic disorders. Although more work is needed to validate the functionality of these HDLs, the data seem relevant for survivor health given the detection of potential biomarkers related to HDL metabolism and functionality in cancer.

Oxidative modifications of foetal LDL-c and HDL-c lipoproteins in preeclampsia. Lipids Health Dis 2018; 17:110. [PMID: 29747696 PMCID: PMC5944012 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-018-0766-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2018] [Accepted: 05/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Oxidative modifications have been observed in lipids and proteins in lipoproteins isolated from women with preeclampsia. Thus, newborns could also be susceptible to this damage directly through their mothers. In this study, we evaluated the oxidative profile of LDL-c and HDL-c lipoproteins isolated from the umbilical cord from newborns born to women with preeclampsia. Methods Thirty newborns born to women with preeclampsia and thirty newborns born to women with healthy pregnancies were included. Lipid-damage biomarkers, including conjugated dienes, lipohydroperoxides and malondialdehyde, were measured. The reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium, formation of dityrosines, and carbonylation of proteins were assessed as indicators of protein damage. The protective activity of paraoxonase-I on HDL-c particles was evaluated. The total antioxidant capacity and lipid profiles were quantified in plasma. Data were analysed using Student’s t-tests and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results Compared with the control group, the preeclampsia group had an increase in the percentage of lipid damage in both lipoproteins. There was an increase of 23.3 and 19.9% for conjugated dienes, 82.4 and 21.1% for lipohydroperoxides, and 103.8 and 51.5% for malondialdehyde in LDL-c and HDL-c, respectively. However, these infants did not show evident damage in protein oxidation. The activity of the enzyme paraoxonase-I was decreased by 36.2%; by contrast, the total antioxidant capacity was increased by 40% (protein) and 28.8% (non-protein). Conclusions The oxidative modifications that occur in HDL-c and LDL-c isolated from newborns from women with preeclampsia are mainly caused by lipoperoxidation processes related to evident paraoxonase-I inactivation. The absence of protein damage is likely linked to an increase in total antioxidant capacity. Therefore, antioxidant support could be helpful in reducing oxidative stress in mother/newborn dyads.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress causes biochemical changes in lipids and proteins; these changes can induce damage to the vascular endothelium and create maternal complications that are characteristic of preeclampsia. In this study, we evaluated the oxidative profile of lipoproteins isolated from women with preeclampsia. METHODS Thirty women diagnosed with preeclampsia and thirty women without preeclampsia were included in the study. Lipid-damage biomarkers, including conjugated dienes, lipohydroperoxides and malondialdehyde, were measured. The reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium, the formation of dityrosines, and the carbonylation of proteins were assessed as indicators of protein damage. The protective activity of HDL-c was evaluated by the paraoxonase-I activity present on the HDL-c particles. Serum lipid profiles were also quantified in both groups. Data were analysed using Student's t test and the Pearson correlation coefficient. RESULTS Our results demonstrated in PE women evident oxidative changes in the lipids and proteins in HDL-c and LDL-c particles and the activity of the antioxidant enzyme PON-I decreased 59.9%. HDL-c exhibited self-defence, as demonstrated by the negative correlation between paraoxonase-I activity and the formation of lipohydroperoxides in HDL-c (r = -0.3755, p < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS LDL-c and HDL-c isolated from women with preeclampsia show oxidative damage to lipids and proteins. We propose an oxidative profile based on the oxidation levels indicated by each of the markers used. We also found that paraoxonase-I is inactivated in the presence of lipohydroperoxides. Antioxidant support might be helpful to reduce oxidative stress in patients with preeclampsia. Further investigations are necessary to define the association between antioxidant activities and preeclampsia.
