Necessary And Sufficient

Human serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is necessary and sufficient for the short-term maintenance of Plasmodium falciparum in in vitro culture. However, at high concentrations it is toxic to the parasite. A heat-labile component is apparently responsible for the stage-specific toxicity to parasites within infected erythrocytes 12–42 h after invasion, i.e. during trophozoite maturation. The effects of HDL on parasite metabolism (as determined by nucleic acid synthesis) are evident at about 30 h after invasion. Parasites treated with HDL show gross abnormalities by light and electron microscopy.

ABSTRACT The host range of African trypanosomes is influenced by innate protective molecules in the blood of primates. A subfraction of human high-density lipoprotein (HDL) containing apolipoprotein A-I, apolipoprotein L-I, and haptoglobin-related protein is toxic to Trypanosoma brucei brucei but not the human sleeping sickness parasite Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense. It is thought that T. b. rhodesiense evolved from a T. b. brucei-like ancestor and expresses a defense protein that ablates the antitrypanosomal activity of human HDL. To directly investigate this possibility, we developed an in vitro selection to generate human HDL-resistant T. b. brucei. Here we show that conversion of T. b. brucei from human HDL sensitive to resistant correlates with changes in the expression of the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) and abolished uptake of the cytotoxic human HDLs. Complete transcriptome analysis of the HDL-susceptible and -resistant trypanosomes confirmed that VSG switching had occurred but failed to reveal the expression of other genes specifically associated with human HDL resistance, including the serum resistance-associated gene (SRA) of T. b. rhodesiense. In addition, we found that while the original active expression site was still utilized, expression of three expression site-associated genes (ESAG) was altered in the HDL-resistant trypanosomes. These findings demonstrate that resistance to human HDLs can be acquired by T. b. brucei.

Atherosclerotic Lesion Development

Abstract It has been shown that apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) over-expression significantly lowers plasma triglyceride levels and decreases atherosclerotic lesion development. To assess the feasibility of recombinant high density lipoprotein (rHDL) reconstituted with apoA-V and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) as a therapeutic agent for hyperlipidemic disorder and atherosclerosis, a series of rHDL were synthesized in vitro with various mass ratios of recombinant apoA-I and apoA-V. It is interesting to find that apoA-V of rHDL had no effect on lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activation in vitro and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) clearance in HepG2 cells and in vivo. By contrast, LPL activation and VLDL clearance were inhibited by the addition of apoA-V to rHDL. Furthermore, the apoA-V of rHDL could not redistribute from rHDL to VLDL after incubation at 37°C for 30 min. These findings suggest that an increase of apoA-V in rHDL could not play a role in VLDL clearance in vitro and in vivo, which could, at least in part, attribute to the lost redistribution of apoA-V from rHDL to VLDL and LPL binding ability of apoA-V in rHDL. The therapeutic application of rHDL reconstituted with apoA-V and apoA-I might need the construction of rHDL from which apoA-V could freely redistribute to VLDL.
