Article Abstract
The neighboring position of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) gene and the modulation of apoA-V on the concentrations, size and maturation of high density lipoprotein (HDL) may indicate a special relationship between apoA-V and HDL. To assess the effects of apoA-V on HDL structure and related functions in vitro, a series of recombinant HDL (rHDL) were synthesized in vitro with various mass ratios of recombinant apoA-I: apoA-V. An increase in apoA-V in rHDL resulted in enhanced lipid-binding ability, increased phospholipid content and larger particle size. Furthermore, the lipid-free and lipid-bound apoA-V in rHDL showed antioxidant capacity against low density lipoprotein (LDL) in vitro. In THP-1 derived macrophages, apoA-V of rHDL was shown to have no influence on the uptake of oxidized LDL (oxLDL) and intracellular lipid accumulation. Thus, the addition of apoA-V to rHDL resulted in changes in several rHDL properties, including increased lipid-binding ability, phospholipid content, particle size and antioxidant capacity. These alterations may explain the modulation of apoA-V on HDL in vivo and the beneficial functions of apoA-V on atherosclerosis.

To explore the anti-atherosclerotic effects of recombinant high-density lipoproteins (rHDL) of apolipoprotein AI wild-type (apoA-Iwt), apolipoprotein AI Milano (apoA-IM), apolipoprotein AI (N74C) (apoA-I (N74C) )and apolipoprotein AV (apoA-V). We constructed rHDL liposomes (rHDLs), which included apoA-Iwt, apoA-IM, and apoA-I (N74C), followed by the synthesis of rHDLs, with the indicated ratios of apoA-Iwt, apoA-IM, apoA-I (N74C) and apoA-V. We investigated the anti-atherosclerotic effects by experiments including the DMPC clearance assay and experiments that assessed the antioxidation against low-density lipoprotein, the cellular uptake of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and the intracellular lipid accumulation.

It has been shown that apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) over-expression significantly lowers plasma triglyceride levels and decreases atherosclerotic lesion development. To assess the feasibility of recombinant high density lipoprotein (rHDL) reconstituted with apoA-V and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) as a therapeutic agent for hyperlipidemic disorder and atherosclerosis, a series of rHDL were synthesized in vitro with various mass ratios of recombinant apoA-I and apoA-V. It is interesting to find that apoA-V of rHDL had no effect on lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activation in vitro and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) clearance in HepG2 cells and in vivo.

Objective: Apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V), a minor protein associated with lipoproteins, has a major effect on triacylglycerol (TG) metabolism. We investigated whether apoA-V complexed with phospholipid in the form of a reconstituted high-density lipoprotein (rHDL) has potential utility as a therapeutic agent for treatment of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) when delivered intravenously.
Methods And Results: Intravenous injection studies were performed in genetically engineered mouse models of severe HTG, including apoav-/- and gpihbp1-/- mice.
