Small dense low density lipoprotein has increased affinity for LDL receptor-independent cell surface binding sites: a potential mechanism for increased atherogenicity

Correspondence to: Narmer F. Galeano.

Small dense low density lipoprotein (LDL) particles have altered apolipoprotein (apo) B conformation and lowered affinity for the LDL receptor (J. Biol. Chem. 1994. 269: 511–519). Herein, we examine the interaction of small dense LDL with cell LDL receptor-independent binding sites. Compared to normal LDL, at low LDL cell media concentrations (<10 µg/ml), small dense LDL had decreased specific binding to the LDL receptor on normal fibroblasts at 4°C, but a 2-fold increased binding to LDL receptor-independent cell sites. At higher LDL concentration (100 µg/ml), LDL receptor-independent binding of small dense LDL was 4.5-fold that of normal LDL in normal fibroblasts, but greater (2- to 14- fold) in LDL receptor-negative fibroblasts. In LDL receptor-negative fibroblasts at 37°C, small dense LDL had higher (3-fold) cell association than normal size LDL but no effective LDL degradation. At high LDL concentrations (100 µg/ml), LDL binding to normal or LDL receptor-negative fibroblasts was not affected by several anti-apoB monoclonal antibodies or by cell pretreatment with proteases, chondroitinase, or neuraminidase. In contrast, pretreating normal and receptor-negative fibroblasts with heparinase and heparitinase decreased LDL cell binding by 35% and 50%, respectively. Similarly, preincubation of receptor-negative fibroblasts with sodium chlorate, an inhibitor of proteoglycan sulfation, decreased LDL binding by about 45%.

We hypothesize that small dense LDL might be more atherogenic than normal size LDL due to decreased hepatic clearance by the LDL receptor, and enhanced anchoring to LDL receptor-independent binding sites in extrahepatic tissues (e.g., the arterial wall), a process mediated, in part, by cell surface proteoglycans.—Galeano, N.
