Lipoprotein Structure O The triacylglycerol # and cholesterol carried by the lipoproteins are obtained either from the diet (exogenous source) or from de novo synthesis (endogenous source).

Its b synthesis begins on glycosylated o the rough ER; it is - glycosylated as it golgi si is i moves through the RERS RER and Golgi. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Assembly of chylomicrons O The enzymes involved in triacylglycerol, cholesterol, and phospholipid synthesis are located in the smooth ER. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Assembly of chylomicrons O Assembly of the apolipoproteins and lipid into chylomicrons requires microsomal triacylglycerol transfer protein, which loads apo B-48 with lipid. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Assembly of chylomicrons O This occurs before transition from the ER to the Golgi, where the particles are packaged in secretory vesicles. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Assembly of chylomicrons O Secretory vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane releasing the lipoproteins, which then enter the lymphatic system and, ultimately, the blood Metabolism of chylomicrons: Regulation of lipoprotein lipase activity O Lipoprotein lipase synthesis and transfer to the luminal surface of the capillary is stimulated by insulin. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Regulation of lipoprotein lipase activity O As the chylomicron circulates and more than 90% of the triacylglycerol in its core is degraded by lipoprotein lipase, the particle decreases in size and increases in density. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Regulation of lipoprotein lipase activity O In addition, the C apoproteins (but not apo E) are returned to HDL. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Regulation of lipoprotein lipase activity O The remaining particle, called a “remnant,” is rapidly removed from the circulation by the liver, whose cell membranes contain lipoprotein receptors that recognize apo E. Metabolism of chylomicrons: Regulation of lipoprotein lipase activity O Chylomicron remnants bind to these receptors and are taken into the hepatocytes by endocytosis. 251 * S hepatic lipase Metabolism of chylomicrons: - Wis rement chylomicton HDL 2 Regulation of lipoprotein lipase -- & ↓ lipoproline lipase activity patie -. , & Chylomicron I ase & Po & VLDL O The endocytosed vesicle then fuses with a protein lipase Yiver lysosome, and the apolipoproteins, cholesteryl esters, and other components of tissued the remnant are hydrolytically degraded, releasing amino acids, free cholesterol, and fatty acids. The receptor is recycled. Metabolism of chylomicrons: T Hepatic lipase (HL) free f A. ↓ glycerol O HL is bound to the surface of liver cells, where it also hydrolyzes TG to free fatty acids plus glycerol. O This enzyme, unlike LPL, does not react readily with chylomicrons or VLDL but is concerned with TG hydrolysis in chylomicron remnants and HDL metabolism. Metabolism of VLDL O VLDLs are produced in the liver. O They are composed predominantly of triacylglycerol (approximately 60%), and their function is to carry this lipid from the liver to the peripheral tissues. O There, the triacylglycerol is degraded by lipoprotein lipase, as discussed for chylomicrons. & nascent VLDL & only APOB-100 + VEDL &, Metabolism of VLDL APOE , AROCK unique O & & O · O & - & ↑ site & of O 35. & VLDL origion & Jo5 - LDL & and 65 % APOE C- 2 - - 91 CO VLDL - rement site & ofI size origion & b density 9) VLDL Release of VLDL O VLDL are secreted directly into the blood by the liver as nascent VLDL particles containing apo B-100. O They must obtain apo C-II and apo E from circulating HDL. Release of VLDL O As with chylomicrons, apo C-II is required for activation of lipoprotein lipase Modification of circulating VLDL O As VLDL pass through the circulation, triacylglycerol is degraded by lipoprotein lipase, causing the VLDL to decrease in size and become denser. Modification of circulating VLDL O Surface components, including the C and E apoproteins, are returned to HDL, but the particles retain apo B-100. Production of LDL from VLDL in the plasma O With these modifications, the VLDL is converted in the plasma to LDL. Production of LDL from VLDL in the plasma O Intermediate-sized particles, the intermediate- density lipoproteins (IDL) or VLDL remnants, are observed during this transition. Production of LDL from VLDL in the plasma O IDLs can also be O taken up by cells through receptor- mediated endocytosis that uses apo E as the O ligand. Transfer of cholesteryl esters (CE) from HDL to VLDL in exchange for triacylglycerol (TAG) or phospholipids (PL) O Some triacylglycerols are transferred from VLDL to HDL in an exchange reaction that concomitantly transfers some cholesteryl esters from HDL to VLDL. O This exchange is accomplished by cholesteryl ester transfer protein. thank you Metabolism of LDL O LDL particles contain much= less TG than their VLDL precursors, and have a high concentration of cholesterol and cholesteryl esters.

The intracellular side of the & pit is coated with the & 4 so protein clathrin. * - Metabolism of LDL & binding O After binding, the LDL- receptor complex is internalized by endocytosis Metabolism of LDL O The vesicle containing the LDL rapidly loses its & clathrin coat and as fuses with other similar vesicles, forming larger vesicles called endosomes. Metabolism of LDL O The pH of the endosome falls (due to the proton- pumping activity of do part endosomal ATPase), which allows separation of the LDL from its receptor. Metabolism of LDL O The receptors then migrate to one side of the endosome, whereas the LDLs stay free within the lumen of the vesicle. Metabolism of LDL O The receptors can be recycled, whereas the lipoprotein remnants in the vesicle are transferred to lysosomes 133050 and degraded by june ma e ↓ lysosomal (hydrolytic) PL enzymes, releasing free cholesterol, AAs, FAs, and PLs. O These compounds can be reutilized by the cell.

They are rapidly converted to spherical particles as they accumulate cholesterol. Functions of HDLs O Esterification of cholesterol: When cholesterol is taken up by HDL, it is immediately esterified by the plasma enzyme phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol acyltransferase (PCAT). This produces a hydrophobic cholesteryl ester, which is ↳ sequestered in the core of the HDL, and Apo A-1 e lysophosphatidylcholine, which binds to albumin. Yso PC - elimention & Reverse cholesterol transport Si excrection O The selective transfer of cholesterol from peripheral cells to Hills HDL, and from HDL to the liver for bile acid synthesis or > - fre & - disposal via the bile, and to steroidogenic cells for hormone synthesis, is a key component of cholesterol homeostasis. O This is for HDL's designation as the “good” cholesterol Choles + carrier. 320 Reverse cholesterol transport O Reverse cholesterol transport involves : efflux of cholesterol from peripheral cells to HDL, esterification of cholesterol by PCAT, binding of the cholesteryl ester–rich HDL (HDL2) to liver and steroidogenic cells, the selective transfer of the cholesteryl esters into these cells, and the release of lipid-depleted HDL (HDL3). cells 5 HDL3 - & O, 1SjOnZiI liver b & HDLz Si Ce Jesu ⑨ PCAT PCATjos(Egl5 blood Stream 3N HDLz si HDLCEd & HDL3j5 = Lipid HDL2 - - des & & & & & & good ( bad C & distory Toge , s a O ⑧ & > O & T S - Lipoproteins and Related Clinical Problems O Atherosclerosis and hypertension O Coronary heart diseases O Lipoproteinemias (hypo- and hyper-) O Fatty liver Role of lipoprotein (a) in heart In disease bland LDL ↑ & - Apocal O Lipoprotein (a), or Lp(a), is a - 5. particle that, when present in - large quantities in the plasma, is associated with an increased risk of coronary - - , heart disease.
