    Abstract The metabolism of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), which are inversely related to risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, involves a complex interplay of factors regulating HDL synthesis, intravascular remodeling, and catabolism. The individual lipid and apolipoprotein components of HDL are mostly assembled after secretion, are frequently exchanged with or transferred to other lipoproteins, are actively remodeled within the plasma compartment, and are often cleared separately from one another. HDL is believed to play a key role in the process of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), in which it promotes the efflux of excess cholesterol from peripheral tissues and returns it to the liver for biliary excretion. This review will emphasize 3 major evolving themes regarding HDL metabolism and RCT. The first theme is that HDL is a universal plasma acceptor lipoprotein for cholesterol efflux from not only peripheral tissues but also hepatocytes, which are a major source of cholesterol efflux to HDL. Furthermore, although efflux of cholesterol from macrophages represents only a tiny fraction of overall cellular cholesterol efflux, it is the most important with regard to atherosclerosis, suggesting that it be specifically termed macrophage RCT. The second theme is the critical role that intravascular remodeling of HDL by lipid transfer factors, lipases, cell surface receptors, and non-HDL lipoproteins play in determining the ultimate metabolic fate of HDL and plasma HDL-c concentrations. The third theme is the growing appreciation that insulin resistance underlies the majority of cases of low HDL-c in humans and the mechanisms by which insulin resistance influences HDL metabolism. Progress in our understanding of HDL metabolism and macrophage reverse cholesterol transport will increase the likelihood of developing novel therapies to raise plasma HDL concentrations and promote macrophage RCT and in proving that these new therapeutic interventions prevent or cause regression of atherosclerosis in humans.

    Abstract According to the increasing results, it has been well-demonstrated that the chronic inflammatory response, including systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease are associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The mechanism whereby inflammatory response up-regulates the risk of cardio-metabolic disorder disease is multifactorial; furthermore, the alterations in high density lipoprotein (HDL) structure and function which occur under the inflammatory response could play an important modulatory function. On the other hand, the serum concentrations of HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) have been shown to be reduced significantly under inflammatory status with remarked alterations in HDL particles. Nevertheless, the potential mechanism whereby the inflammatory response reduces serum HDL-C levels is not simply defined but reduces apolipoprotein A1 production. The alterations in HDL structure mediated by the inflammatory response has been also confirmed to decrease the ability of HDL particle to play an important role in reverse cholesterol transport and protect the LDL particles from oxidation. Recently, it has been shown that under the inflammatory condition, diverse alterations in HDL structure could be observed which lead to changes in HDL function. In the current review, the emerging effects of inflammatory response on HDL particles structure and function are well-summarized to elucidate the potential mechanism whereby different inflammatory status modulates the pathogenic development of dyslipidemia.

    Abstract Four adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) transporters-ABCA1, ABCG1, ABCG5, and ABCG8-have been identified and shown to modulate cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism. Recent analyses of ABCA1 indicate that upregulation of ABCA1 in the liver and macrophages of transgenic mice is associated with increased plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels, increased net flux of cholesterol to the liver, and reduced diet-induced atherosclerosis. In ABCA1 transgenic mice, the enhanced expression of hepatic ABCA1 transporters is associated with increased plasma HDL cholesterol levels, suggesting that the liver plays an important role in the levels of plasma HDL cholesterol. Overexpression of ABCG1 in the liver of mice using recombinant ABCG1 vectors results in decreased plasma HDL levels and indicates that ABCG1 can modulate plasma lipoprotein levels in vivo. The potential importance of ABCG1 in reverse cholesterol transport has not been definitively established. Studies in patients with sitosterolemia have identified 2 major new transporters, ABCG5 and ABCG8, that play a pivotal role in the regulation of intestinal cholesterol, plant, and shellfish absorption. Modulation of the expression of ABCG5 and ABCG8 represents an important new mechanism in the regulation of cholesterol absorption in the intestine. The ABC transporters currently represent excellent targets for the development of new drugs for the treatment of patients with increased risk of premature cardiovascular disease.
