title: Relationship in adipose cells between the presence of receptor sites for high density lipoproteins and the promotion of reverse cholesterol transport.
abstract: The role of a high-affinity receptor site for high-density lipoproteins (HDL) has been investigated in parental Ob1771 adipose cells and their transformed counterparts after transfer of the complete early region of polyoma virus (Ob17PY cells). Binding of ApoAI, ApoAII and HDL3 occurs in Ob1771 cells and derived membranes, whereas no binding is observed in Ob17PY cells and derived membranes. After thymidine block, growth-arrested Ob17PY cells become able to bind ApoAI, ApoAII and HDL3; this recovery is prevented in actinomycin D- or cycloheximide-treated cells. In contrast to ApoAI, ApoAII or HDL3 binding, both growing and growth-arrested Ob17PY cells do show receptor activities for low density lipoproteins and transferrin, respectively, which are similar in affinity and maximal capacity. Following cholesterol accumulation which takes place in the presence of LDL cholesterol, subsequent exposure to HDL3 or ApoAI promotes cholesterol efflux from Ob1771 cells and growth-arrested Ob17PY cells but not from growing Ob17PY cells. These results show that the presence of a high-affinity receptor site for HDL in intact adipose cells is required for the promotion of reverse cholesterol transport.
