Popis: Abstract Oxidized albumin (oxHSA) is elevated in several pathological conditions, such as decompensated cirrhosis, acute on chronic liver failure and liver mediated renal failure. Patient derived oxidized albumin was previously shown to be an inflammatory mediator, and in normal serum levels of oxHSA are low. The removal from circulation of oxidized albumins is therefore likely required for maintenance of homeostasis. Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) are prominent scavenger cells specialized in removal of macromolecular waste. Given that oxidized albumin is mainly cleared by the liver, we hypothesized the LSEC are the site of uptake in the liver. In vivo oxHSA was cleared rapidly by the liver and distributed to mainly the LSEC. In in vitro studies LSEC endocytosed oxHSA much more than other cell populations isolated from the liver. Furthermore, it was shown that the uptake was mediated by the stabilins, by affinity chromatography-mass spectrometry, inhibiting uptake in LSEC with other stabilin ligands and showing uptake in HEK cells overexpressing stabilin-1 or -2. oxHSA also inhibited the uptake of other stabilin ligands, and a 2-h challenge with 100 µg/mL oxHSA reduced LSEC endocytosis by 60% up to 12 h after. Thus the LSEC and their stabilins mediate clearance of highly oxidized albumin, and oxidized albumin can downregulate their endocytic capacity in turn.
