ApoE-dependent sterol efflux from macrophages is modulated by scavenger receptor class B type I expression

Macrophages express a number of proteins involved in sterol efflux pathways, including apolipoprotein E (apoE) and scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI). We have investigated a potential interaction between these two sterol efflux pathways in modulating overall macrophage sterol flux. We utilized an experimental system in which we increased expression of each of these proteins to a high physiologic range in order to perform our evaluation. We show that in apoE-expressing cells, a 4-fold increase in SR-BI expression leads to reduction of sterol and phospholipid efflux. SR-BI-mediated reduction in sterol efflux was only observed in cells that expressed endogenous apoE. In J774 cells that did not express apoE, a similar increase in SR-BI level led to increased sterol efflux. The divergent response of sterol efflux after increased SR-BI was maintained in the presence of a number of structurally diverse extracellular sterol acceptors. Increased SR-BI expression also enhanced sterol efflux to exogenously added apoE. Investigation of a potential mechanism for reduced efflux in apoE-expressing cells indicated that SR-BI expression reduced macrophage apoE by accelerating the degradation of newly synthesized apoE. This led to decreased secretion of apoE and reduced the fraction of apoE sequestered on the cell surface.

Thus, enhanced SR-BI expression in macrophages can reduce the cellular level and secretion of apoE by accelerating degradation of the newly synthesized protein. This reduction of endogenous apoE is accompanied by reduced sterol efflux from macrophages. — Huang, Z. H., and T. Mazzone.
