Binding of 125I-low density lipoprotein (LDL) and 125I-high density lipoprotein (HDL) was determined in cultured human fibroblasts from a normal subject and two subjects with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HFH). Binding was assayed at 0 ° C to minimize the internalization of labeled lipoproteins. The binding of LDL and of HDL were compared following interventions reported to affect LDL binding in normal fibroblast. LDL binding to normal cells increased two to three fold 24 hours after transfer from medium containing whole fetal calf serum to medium containing lipoprotein-deficient fetal calf serum. This increase was completely blocked in the presence of cycloheximide (200 µg/ml) or 7-ketocholesterol (2.5 µg/ml). This increased capacity of normal fibroblasts to bind LDL could be reduced 70–80% by a subsequent 18-hour incubation with cholesterol (50 µg/ml) or 7-ketocholesterol (2.5 µg/ml). In contrast, no significant change in HDL binding to normal fibroblasts was observed after any of these interventions. HFH cells to show any significant change in either LDL binding or HDL binding following these interventions. These results suggest that HDL binding sites on normal fibroblasts are for the most part distinct from LDL binding sites. They also support the conclusion that LDL binding sites on HFH cells are for the most part qualitatively different from those on normal cells. |
