the glia neuron lactate shuttle and elevated ros promote lipid synthesis in neurons and lipid droplet accumulation in glia via apoe d
Cell Metabolism, 2017Co-Authors: Kevin R. Mackenzie, Mirjana Maleticsavatic, Nagireddy Putluri, Hugo Jozef BellenAbstract:Summary Elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) induce the formation of lipids in neurons that are transferred to glia, where they form lipid droplets (LDs). We show that glial and neuronal monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), fatty acid transport proteins (FATPs), and Apolipoproteins are critical for glial LD formation. MCTs enable glia to secrete and neurons to absorb lactate, which is converted to pyruvate and acetyl-CoA in neurons. Lactate metabolites provide a substrate for synthesis of fatty acids, which are processed and transferred to glia by FATP and Apolipoproteins. In the presence of high ROS, inhibiting lactate transfer or lowering FATP or apolipoprotein levels decreases glial LD accumulation in flies and in primary mouse glial-neuronal cultures. We show that human APOE can substitute for a fly glial apolipoprotein and that APOE4, an Alzheimer's disease susceptibility allele, is impaired in lipid transport and promotes neurodegeneration, providing insights into disease mechanisms.

evaluating the relationship between circulating lipoprotein lipids and Apolipoproteins with risk of coronary heart disease a multivariable mendelian randomisation analysis
PLOS Medicine, 2020Co-Authors: Tom G Richardson, Eleanor Sanderson, Tom M Palmer, Mika Alakorpela, Brian A Ference, George Davey SmithAbstract:Background Circulating lipoprotein lipids cause coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the precise way in which one or more lipoprotein lipid-related entities account for this relationship remains unclear. Using genetic instruments for lipoprotein lipid traits implemented through multivariable Mendelian randomisation (MR), we sought to compare their causal roles in the aetiology of CHD. Methods and findings We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of circulating non-fasted lipoprotein lipid traits in the UK Biobank (UKBB) for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, and apolipoprotein B to identify lipid-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Using data from CARDIoGRAMplusC4D for CHD (consisting of 60,801 cases and 123,504 controls), we performed univariable and multivariable MR analyses. Similar GWAS and MR analyses were conducted for high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein A-I. The GWAS of lipids and Apolipoproteins in the UKBB included between 393,193 and 441,016 individuals in whom the mean age was 56.9 y (range 39–73 y) and of whom 54.2% were women. The mean (standard deviation) lipid concentrations were LDL cholesterol 3.57 (0.87) mmol/L and HDL cholesterol 1.45 (0.38) mmol/L, and the median triglycerides was 1.50 (IQR = 1.11) mmol/L. The mean (standard deviation) values for Apolipoproteins B and A-I were 1.03 (0.24) g/L and 1.54 (0.27) g/L, respectively. The GWAS identified multiple independent SNPs associated at P < 5 × 10−8 for LDL cholesterol (220), apolipoprotein B (n = 255), triglycerides (440), HDL cholesterol (534), and apolipoprotein A-I (440). Between 56%–93% of SNPs identified for each lipid trait had not been previously reported in large-scale GWASs. Almost half (46%) of these SNPs were associated at P < 5 × 10−8 with more than one lipid-related trait. Assessed individually using MR, LDL cholesterol (odds ratio [OR] 1.66 per 1-standard-deviation–higher trait; 95% CI: 1.49–1.86; P < 0.001), triglycerides (OR 1.34; 95% CI: 1.25–1.44; P < 0.001) and apolipoprotein B (OR 1.73; 95% CI: 1.56–1.91; P < 0.001) had effect estimates consistent with a higher risk of CHD. In multivariable MR, only apolipoprotein B (OR 1.92; 95% CI: 1.31–2.81; P < 0.001) retained a robust effect, with the estimate for LDL cholesterol (OR 0.85; 95% CI: 0.57–1.27; P = 0.44) reversing and that of triglycerides (OR 1.12; 95% CI: 1.02–1.23; P = 0.01) becoming weaker. Individual MR analyses showed a 1-standard-deviation–higher HDL cholesterol (OR 0.80; 95% CI: 0.75–0.86; P < 0.001) and apolipoprotein A-I (OR 0.83; 95% CI: 0.77–0.89; P < 0.001) to lower the risk of CHD, but these effect estimates attenuated substantially to the null on accounting for apolipoprotein B. A limitation is that, owing to the nature of lipoprotein metabolism, measures related to the composition of lipoprotein particles are highly correlated, creating a challenge in making exclusive interpretations on causation of individual components. Conclusions These findings suggest that apolipoprotein B is the predominant trait that accounts for the aetiological relationship of lipoprotein lipids with risk of CHD.

decreased reverse cholesterol transport from tangier disease fibroblasts acceptor specificity and effect of brefeldin on lipid efflux
Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 1997Co-Authors: Alan T Remaley, Uwe K Schumacher, John A Stonik, B D Farsi, H Nazih, H B BrewerAbstract:Abstract Tangier disease is characterized by HDL hypercatabolism and increased deposition of cholesterol in tissues. Tangier disease skin fibroblasts have decreased apoA-I-mediated cholesterol and phospholipid efflux, which may lead to the excess accumulation of cellular cholesterol. The mechanism of apolipoprotein-mediated cholesterol efflux and the apolipoprotein acceptor specificity for cholesterol efflux from normal and Tangier disease fibroblasts was investigated. Normal cells readily effluxed cholesterol and phospholipid to apoA-I and to all of the other Apolipoproteins tested (apoA-II, AIV, C-I, C-II, C-III). In contrast, Tangier cells were almost completely defective in cholesterol efflux to apoA-I and to all of the other Apolipoproteins tested. HDL was also less effective, by approximately 50%, in stimulating cholesterol efflux from Tangier cells compared with normal cells. In addition, Tangier cells also showed significantly reduced phospholipid efflux to both Apolipoproteins and HDL. A similar rate of cholesterol efflux, however, was observed from normal and Tangier cells when phospholipid vesicles or cyclodextrin were used as acceptors. In contrast to normal cells, only phospholipid vesicles and cyclodextrin and not apoA-I or HDL depleted intracellular cholesteryl esters from Tangier cells. Brefeldin, an inhibitor of intracellular vesicular trafficking, decreased HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux by approximately 40% but almost completely blocked both cholesterol and phospholipid efflux to apoA-I from normal cells. Brefeldin also inhibited cholesteryl ester depletion by apoA-I and HDL from normal cells. Brefeldin, however, had no significant effect on cholesterol efflux from Tangier cells to HDL. In summary, Tangier cells were found to be defective in both cholesterol and phospholipid efflux to HDL and apoA-I. The defect in apolipoprotein-mediated lipid efflux was not specific for apoA-I but also occurred for other Apolipoproteins, and brefeldin blocked HDL-mediated lipid efflux from normal but not Tangier disease cells. On the basis of these results, a model is proposed whereby decreased cholesterol efflux by Apolipoproteins in Tangier cells is the result of a defect in a brefeldin-sensitive pathway of lipid efflux.
