title: [Protective effect of high density lipoproteins, their subfractions and lecithin-cholesterol-acyltransferases on the peroxidation modification of low density lipoproteins].
abstract: The role of high density lipoproteins (HDL), their subfractions (HDL2 and HDL3) and lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) on peroxidative modification of low density lipoproteins (LDL) in vitro was studied. Peroxidative modification was estimated by the formation of malonic dialdehyde (MDA) and LDL aggregates during LDL incubation at 37 degrees C for several days without Fe2+ or for 2 hours in the presence of Fe2+ in EDTA-free media. It was shown that the addition of HDL3 (but not HDL2) markedly decreases the formation of both MDA and LDL aggregates. Since LCAT is bound to HDL3, its effect was examined. An addition of LCAT isolated from human plasma (650-fold purification) at a concentration of 450 micrograms/ml resulted in a complete inhibition of LDL peroxidation and LDL aggregate formation. Heat-inactivated LCAT had no effect. Possible mechanisms of the protective effect of LCAT on LDL peroxidative modification are discussed.
