Abstract

In atherosclerotic lesions, macrophages store lipid in cytoplasmic inclusions and lysosomes. Regression studies show that lysosomal lipid is not as easily cleared as cytoplasmic inclusion lipid. Macrophages enriched with mildly oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) accumulate cholesteryl ester (CE) and free cholesterol (FC) in lysosomes. We examined whether lysosomal stores of cholesterol from oxLDL are cleared from THP-1 and mouse macrophages. As in previous studies, oxLDL-enriched THP-1 macrophages accumulated substantial lysosomal cholesterol. Surprisingly, less than 12% of oxLDL-derived lysosomal CE was cleared to efficient FC acceptors (e.g., cyclodextrins, apolipoprotein/phosphatidylcholine vesicles, and fetal bovine serum). Filipin staining showed that lysosomes of oxLDL-treated THP-1 cells contained FC, and despite removal of most of the cell FC (70--80%) by incubation with cyclodextrins, filipin staining of FC in lysosomes did not diminish. Also, when THP-1 macrophages were incubated with [(3)H]CE oxLDL, 73--76% of the [(3)H]CE was retained in a lysosomal hydrolysis resistant pool. In contrast, greater than 90% of acetylated low density lipoprotein (acLDL) [(3)H]CE was hydrolyzed. Furthermore, [(3)H]FC liberated from oxLDL [(3)H]CE was released at a slower rate to cyclodextrins than was [(3)H]FC from acLDL [(3)H]CE. In contrast, only 27% of oxLDL [(3)H]CE was resistant to hydrolysis in mouse macrophages, and the [(3)H]FC generated from oxLDL and acLDL [(3)H]CE was released to cyclodextrins at similar rates. We conclude that lack of hydrolysis and efflux of oxLDL cholesterol is not exclusively inherent in oxLDL, but also requires specific cell factors present in one cell type but not the other.--Yancey, P.
