This study shows that phospholipid depletion has a major impact on the size and structure of spherical, reconstituted high density lipoproteins (rHDL) and their remodeling by cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). Spherical rHDL, 9.2 nm in diameter with a phospholipid/cholesteryl ester/unesterified cholesterol/apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) (PL/CE/UC/A-I) molar ratio of 37.3/24.5/4.1/1.0, were depleted progressively of phospholipids by incubation with phospholipase A2. After 30 min of incubation the PL/CE/UC/A-I molar ratio of the rHDL was 8.0/31.2/4.4/1.0 and their diameter had decreased to 8.0 nm. Comparable changes in rHDL size and composition were also apparent when the incubations were carried out in the presence of other lipoprotein classes and lipoprotein-deficient plasma. The changes in size and composition were not accompanied by the dissociation of apoA-I from the rHDL. Phospholipid depletion did not affect rHDL surface charge or the structure and stability of apoA-I. The remodeling of unmodified and phospholipid-depleted rHDL by CETP was also investigated. When the rHDL were incubated for 3 h with CETP and Intralipid, transfers of core lipids between the phospholipid-depleted rHDL and Intralipid were decreased relative to unmodified rHDL. This difference was no longer apparent when the incubations were extended beyond 3 h. In these incubations apoA-I dissociated from the phospholipid-depleted and unmodified rHDL at 3 and 12 h, respectively. At 24 h the respective diameters of the unmodified rHDL and phospholipid-depleted rHDL were 8.0 and 7.8 nm.
In conclusion, phospholipid depletion has a major impact on rHDL size and their remodeling by CETP. Rye, K-A., and M. N. Duong. Influence of phospholipid depletion on the size, structure, and remodeling of reconstituted high density lipoproteins. J. Lipid Res. 2000. 41: 1640;1650.
