| Popis: | Low density lipoproteins (LDL) can bind to glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans rich in heparin and chondroitin sulphate in the arterial intima and may become a target for atherogenic modification by myeloperoxidase activity. We have examined the susceptibility of resolubilized LDL, that has been precipitated from serum with heparin (HepLDL), to peroxidase-H2O2-catalysed oxidation and the effects of antioxidants and components of human serum on the oxidation. HepLDL was oxidised rapidly by horse radish peroxidase (HRP) and H2O2 (mean t1/2max for conjugated diene formation, 3 min) while there was little oxidation of native LDL or native LDL precipitated with polyethyleneglycol and resolubilised during the 30 min incubation period. The formation of thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TBARS) essentially paralleled that of conjugated dienes during oxidation of HepLDL. HepLDL was also more rapidly oxidised than native LDL by myeloperoxidase-H2O2. Oxidation of HepLDL by peroxidases did not require free tyrosine, was almost totally inhibited by butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and ascorbate, and was unaffected by vitamin E and urate. Increasing concentrations (0-14.9%) of beta-lipoprotein deficient serum (BLPDS) significantly (P0.0001) inhibited the formation of TBARS during HepLDL oxidation catalysed by HRP and partially inhibited the corresponding myeloperoxidase-catalysed oxidation. This inhibitory activity was removed by dialysis and gel-filtration of BLPDS and was not restored by addition of magnesium ions used in the isolation of BLPDS, or physiological levels of ascorbate, tyrosine and reduced thiols (cysteine) to gel-filtered BLPDS. The results indicate that LDL from complexes with glycosaminoglycans are highly susceptible to oxidation by peroxidases, particularly at low levels of water soluble antioxidants, and that vulnerability of these LDL to myeloperoxidase oxidation remains in the presence of serum components that should exist in the arterial intima. These findings may be relevant to the oxidative modification of LDL that becomes trapped by binding to arterial proteoglycans and to the formation of myeloperoxidase-modified LDL in the artery wall. |
