Serum low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and high-density lipoproteins (HDL) were prepared by gradient ultracentrifugation and dialysis from 12 healthy subjects and 15 patients with coronary heart disease and hyperlipoproteinemia. In both lipoprotein fractions cholesterol and lipid peroxides were determined. The effect of these lipoproteins on spontaneous prostacyclin biosynthesis in rat aortic slices was studied. Serum lipoproteins were susceptible to peroxidation during the preparation procedure. LDL were more prone to peroxidation than HDL. Little lipid peroxides were formed in lipoproteins when calcium ions had been removed by EDTA, and when butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) was present at all stages of their preparation. LDL when prepared without these precautions either from healthy subjects or from patients with coronary heart disease markedly suppressed prostacyclin generation by rat aortic slices. This inhibition was unrelated to LDL-cholesterol, but was due to LDL-lipid peroxides. Peroxide-low LDL prepared from most of the healthy subjects and patients with coronary heart disease and concomitant hyperlipoproteinemia, did not inhibit prostacyclin biosynthesis. However, in one quarter of the patients, LDL was inhibitory. Consequently, in some patients with coronary heart disease, there operate unknown mechanisms which are responsible for the inhibitory activity of LDL on prostacyclin generation. |
