Abstract
The transfer of pyrene between high density lipoproteins was studied as a model of lipid exchange. When high density lipoprotein containing pyrene was mixed with unlabeled lipoprotein, pyrene excimer fluorescence decreased with a half-time of approximately 3 ms. The rate of pyrene transfer was invariant over a 100-fold range of unlabeled lipoprotein concentrations. Since a decrease in excimer fluorescence indicates a decrease in the microscopic concentrations of pyrene, the observed fluorescence change relfects pyrene transfer to unlabeled lipoproteins, and, therefore, dilution of the pyrene molecules. When high density lipoprotein labeled with pyrene was rapidly diluted 1:14 into buffer, a small decrease in excimer fluorescence was observed. The half-time of this fluorescence change was also about 3 ms and represents the half-time for the dissociation of pyrene from high density lipoprotein into water. The latter observation, coupled with the invariant exchange rate with lipoprotein concentration suggests strongly that the limiting step in the transfer of pyrene between high density lipoproteins is the dissociation of pyrene into solvent. Finally, regardless of mechanism, the exchange of pyrene, and presumably other hydrophobic aromatic compounds, among serum high density lipoproteins is extremely fast. This result indicates that these types of compounds can be rapidly assimilated and transported through the body by plasma lipoproteins.
