The physiological role of murine scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) was evaluated by in vivo clearances of human high and low density lipoproteins (HDL3 and LDL) in normal (+/+), heterozygous (+/-) and homozygous (-/-) SR-BI knockout (KO) male and female mice. Cholesteryl esters (CE) were removed faster than proteins, indicating a selective uptake process from both HDL3 and LDL in the three genotypes. Heterozygous and homozygous deficient male mice showed 40 and 80% losses of HDL-CE selective uptake, respectively. Similar data were obtained in female mice. In males, the loss of SR-BI resulted in the complete loss of LDL-CE selective uptake in the first phase of clearance, indicating again a strong implication of SR-BI. However, the second phase was characterized by an acceleration of CE disappearance in (-/-) SR-BI KO male mice. This phenomenon was even greater in females. Thus, SR-BI is the only murine receptor mediating HDL-CE selective uptake, while a SR-BI-independent pathway specific to LDL can rescue SR-BI deficiency. The analysis of LDL recovered 3 hours after injection in mice from different genotypes and genders revealed that LDL are significantly depleted in CE (reduction from 19 to 50% of the CE/protein ratios). A smaller LDL size in comparison with that of non-injected LDL was also detectable but was more evident for LDL recovered from normal male and female mice. All LDL preparations migrate faster than non-injected LDL on agarose-barbital gels. Thus both SR-BI dependent and independent pathways lead to substantial changes in LDL.
