Objective— To determine mechanisms contributing to decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations associated with hydrogenated fat intake, kinetic studies of apoA-I, apoB-100, and apoB-48 were conducted using stable isotopes.

Methods and Results— Eight postmenopausal hypercholesterolemic women were provided in random order with 3 diets for 5-week periods. Two-thirds of the fat was soybean oil (unsaturated fat), stick margarine (hydrogenated fat), or butter (saturated fat). Total and LDL-C levels were highest after the saturated diet (P<0.05; saturated versus unsaturated) whereas HDL-C levels were lowest after the hydrogenated diet (P<0.05; hydrogenated versus saturated). Plasma apoA-I levels and pool size (PS) were lower, whereas apoA-I fractional catabolic rate (FCR) was higher after the hydrogenated relative to the saturated diet (P<0.05). LDL apoB-100 levels and PS were significantly higher, whereas LDL apoB-100 FCR was lower with the saturated and hydrogenated relative to the unsaturated diet. There was no significant difference among diets in apoA-I or B-100 production rates or apoB-48 kinetic parameters. HDL-C concentrations were negatively associated with apoA-I FCR (r=–0.56, P=0.03) and LDL-C concentrations were negatively correlated with LDL apoB-100 FCR (r=–0.48, P=0.05).

Conclusions— The mechanism for the adverse lipoprotein profile observed with hydrogenated fat intake is determined in part by increased apoA-I and decreased LDL apoB-100 catabolism.

Hydrogenated fat intake decreases HDL-C and increases LDL-C concentrations. To determine mechanism, apoprotein kinetic studies were conducted in 8 women after consumption of an unsaturated, hydrogenated, or saturated diet. Hydrogenated fat intake resulted in higher HDL–apoA-I and lower LDL–apoB-100 catabolism, which were negatively correlated with HDL-C and LDL-C concentrations, respectively.

	Introduction

Top Abstract Introduction Methods Results Discussion References

 
Considerable interest has been focused on the mechanism by which dietary fatty acids influence plasma lipid and lipoprotein profiles and subsequently cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.^1–3 One specific class of dietary fatty acids that has received increased attention since the early 1990s is trans fatty acids. These fatty acids are produced as a result of biohydrogenation in the ruminant fat of animals or by commercial hydrogenation of vegetable oils.⁴ The majority of trans fatty acids in the US diet is contributed by products made with hydrogenated fat such as commercially baked goods, fried foods, and margarines.^5,6 Relative to unsaturated fatty acids, trans fatty acid/hydrogenated fat consumption results in higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations and relative to saturated fat lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations.^7–13 Several investigators have also reported modest but significant elevations in plasma triglyceride and Lp(a) concentrations.^14–16

There are limited data on the mechanism(s) by which trans fatty acid/hydrogenated fat intake alters plasma lipoprotein patterns. Areas investigated thus far include endogenous cholesterol synthesis and esterification^17–19 and the activities of cholesterol ester transfer protein (CETP)^20–23 and lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT).^24–26 An alternate approach to defining a mechanism by which trans fatty acids/hydrogenated fat alters lipoprotein concentrations relative to other fats is to directly assess the kinetic behavior of major apoproteins associated with HDL and LDL particles. This area remains largely unexplored in humans.

The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of a diet consistent with current dietary recommendations^1,27 enriched in soybean oil (unsaturated fat), soybean oil-based traditional stick margarine (hydrogenated fat), or butter (saturated fat) on lipoprotein metabolism, with the intent of elucidating mechanisms contributing to the adverse lipoprotein profile reported with hydrogenated fat intake.

Subjects
Eight postmenopausal women (older than 50 years) with LDL-C concentrations 3.36 mmol/L at the time of screening were recruited for this study. Subjects were free from chronic illness and were not using medications known to affect lipid metabolism (lipid-lowering drugs, fish-oil capsules, beta-blockers, diuretics, or hormones). Subjects who smoked or reported consuming 2 alcoholic drinks per day were excluded from the study. The protocol was approved by the Human Investigation Review Committee of the New England Medical Center and Tufts University. All subjects gave written informed consents.

Experimental Design and Diets
Subjects were provided with each of 3 diets for 5-week periods according to a randomized, blinded, crossover design as previously described for an earlier study.⁷ The experimental fats comprised 20% of energy in each diet. All food and drink were provided to the subjects. Initial energy intakes were calculated using the Harris-Benedict equation and adjustments were made when necessary to maintain body weight. Analysis of the macronutrient and cholesterol contents of the diets were performed by Covance Laboratories (Madison, Wis) and fatty acid profiles by Best Foods Research and Engineering Center (Union, NJ) (Table 1).

Measurement of Lipoprotein Kinetics
At the end of each experimental diet, a primed-constant infusion of deuterated leucine was performed in the fed state to determine the kinetics of HDL apoA-I, triglyceride-rich lipoprotein (TRL)–apoB-100, intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL)–apoB-100, and LDL–apoB-100, and TRL apoB-48. After fasting for 12 hours, subjects were fed hourly for 20 hours starting at 6:00 AM. Each identical meal consisted of one-twentieth their daily caloric intake specific for each dietary phase as previously described.²⁸ Five hours after their first meal, subjects received an intravenous bolus dose (10 µmol/kg) followed by a constant infusion (10 µmol/kg per hour) of [5,5,5-²H₃]-L-leucine over a 15-hour period. Blood samples (20 mL) were collected via a second intravenous line at 0, 0.5., 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 15 hours.

The protocol for plasma lipid and lipoprotein characterization, quantification, and isolation of the apolipoproteins, isotopic enrichment determinations, and kinetic analysis were performed as previously described.^29–37 For HDL compositional analysis, total and free cholesterol, triglyceride, and phospholipid concentrations were determined using commercially available enzymatic assays (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, Ind and Wako Diagnostics, Richmond, Va). Total protein was determined using the Biuret method. The cholesteryl ester and phospholipid fatty acid composition of the HDL fraction was determined using gas chromatography.³⁸ At the end of each dietary infusion protocol, plasma samples were collected 10 minutes before and after the administration of heparin (100 U heparin sodium/kg body weight) for the measurement of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipolytic activity (HTGL).^39,40

Kinetic Analysis
The kinetics of HDL apoA-I and TRL apoB-48 (Figure I, available online at http://atvb.ahajournals.org) and apoB-100 (Figure II, available online at http://atvb.ahajournals.org) in TRL, IDL, and LDL fractions were determined by fitting the multicompartmental model to the tracer/tracee (T/T) ratio data using the SAAM II program (SAAM Institute, Seattle, Wash) as previously described.^35–37 After fitting the observed data to the respective models, fractional catabolic rates (FCR) (in pools/d) and production rates (PR) (in mg/kg per day) of apoA-I, apoB-100, and apoB-48 were calculated as described.^35–37

Statistical Analyses
One-way analyses of variance with diet as the study factor and subject as the repeated measure was used on each outcome variable using a SAS general linear model program (SAS version 6; SAS Institute Inc, Cary, NC). Differences in group means were identified using Tukey honestly significant differences at a significance level of P<0.05. Within subject partial correlation coefficients adjusted for diet were calculated between variables of interest. If data were not normally distributed, appropriate transformations were performed before statistical testing. Untransformed data are presented in text and tables as means±standard deviation (SD). The lipid and lipoprotein values are averages of 3 measurements taken at the end of each dietary phase.

Lipids and Lipoproteins
Total and LDL-C concentrations were 11% and 15% higher after subjects consumed the saturated fat relative to the unsaturated fat diet (P<0.05, Table 2), with levels being intermediate between the saturated and unsaturated diets after subjects consumed the hydrogenated fat diet (7% and 12%, respectively). In contrast, HDL-C concentrations were 7% lower after subjects consumed the hydrogenated relative to saturated fat diet (P<0.05). Triglyceride concentrations were highest after subjects ate the hydrogenated and lowest after the unsaturated fat diets, although these differences did not reach statistical significance. These data suggest that the subjects participating in this kinetic study responded to the dietary fat similarly to that as would be predicted on the basis of other human metabolic studies.^7,10,12,14

View this table: [in this window] [in a new window]   TABLE 2. Lipid and Lipoprotein Concentrations at the End of Each Experimental Phase

ApoA-I Kinetics
ApoA-I concentrations and PS followed a pattern similar to that of HDL-C, lowest after the hydrogenated and highest after the saturated fat diet (Table 3). These differences were accounted for by an 11% higher apoA-I FCR after subjects consumed the hydrogenated relative to the saturated fat diet (P<0.05). The FCR after subjects ate the unsaturated diet was intermediate, with the differential between the hydrogenated and unsaturated diet reaching 8%. The PR of apoA-I was similar among the 3 diets.

To determine whether the decrease in HDL-C levels observed after shifting subjects from the saturated to the hydrogenated-based diet was associated with changes in apoA-I metabolism, partial correlations were performed. Plasma HDL-C concentrations were negatively correlated with apoA-I FCR (r=–0.56, P=0.03; FigureA) and positively correlated with plasma apoA-I concentrations (r=0.48, P=0.05) and apoA-I PS (r=0.48, P=0.03) (data not shown). Plasma apoA-I concentrations were also negatively correlated with apoA-I FCR (r=–0.59; P=0.04). The apoA-I PR was not significantly related to differences in plasma HDL-C concentrations. These data suggest that the lower HDL-C concentrations observed after subjects consumed the hydrogenated relative to the saturated fat diet is attributable to a higher rate of HDL catabolism, resulting in a shorter residence time.

View larger version (16K): [in this window] [in a new window]   Correlation between (A) plasma HDL-C concentrations (mmol/L) and HDL apoA-I FCR (pools/d) and (B) plasma LDL-C concentrations (mmol/L) and LDL apoB-100 FCR (pools/d). Data are presented for 8 subjects after consumption of the unsaturated (black triangles) fat-enriched, hydrogenated (squares) fat-enriched, and saturated (asterisks) fat-enriched diets. The r values refer to partial correlations.

To further understand the factors that might contribute to the diet-induced differences in HDL apoA-I FCR, fatty acid profile and composition of the HDL particles was assessed (Table 3). In the cholesteryl ester fraction, the relative proportion of polyunsaturated and trans fatty (18:1) acids was significantly higher at the expense of monounsaturated fatty acids as a result of subjects consuming the hydrogenated relative to the saturated fat diet. In the phospholipid fraction, the relative proportion of trans fatty acids was significantly higher at the expense of monounsaturated fatty acids. These differences in the fatty acid profile of the HDL subfraction are consistent with an earlier study that had a larger cohort.⁴¹ There were no significant differences in HDL composition as a result of altering dietary fat.

ApoB-100 Kinetics
Plasma TRL and IDL apoB-100 values, PS, FCR, and PR were not significantly different among diet phases (Table 4). Plasma LDL apoB-100 concentrations and PS were 12% and 14% higher after subjects consumed the saturated relative to the unsaturated fat diet (P<0.05), with concentrations being intermediate after subjects consumed the hydrogenated fat diet. LDL apoB-100 FCR were 20% and 13% lower after subjects consumed the saturated and hydrogenated relative to the unsaturated fat diet (P<0.05). There was no significant effect of dietary fat type on LDL apo-B100 PR. LDL apoB-100 FCR was negatively correlated with plasma LDL-C (r=–0.48; P<0.05) (Figure B) and LDL apoB-100 concentrations (r=–0.35; P=0.05). Plasma LDL-C concentrations were not significantly related to differences in LDL-C apoB-100 PR. These data suggest the mechanism for the LDL-C elevating effect of hydrogenated fat is similar to that of saturated fat, primarily determined by decreased catabolism, leading to an increased residence time.

View this table: [in this window] [in a new window]   TABLE 4. Kinetic Parameters of ApoB-100 and ApoB-48 at the End of Each Experimental Phase

ApoB-48 Kinetics
ApoB-48 concentrations and PS values tended to be 78% (P=0.19) and 70% (P=0.21) higher after subjects consumed the hydrogenated diet relative to the unsaturated fat diet, which was accompanied by a 19% lower FCR (P=0.15) and 44% higher PR (P=0.19) (Table 4). Because of the high degree of variability in response among subjects, these differences did not attain statistical significance.

Lipoprotein Lipase Activity
There was no significant effect of dietary fat type on lipase activities. Total lipoprotein lipase activity was 3105±998, 3562±948, and 4471±1116 nEq of free fatty acids (FFA)/mL per hour, and HTGL activity 12 168±1665, 11 654±1279, and 11 901±1398 nEq FFA/mL per hour, after subjects consumed the unsaturated, hydrogenated, and saturated fat diets, respectively.

	Discussion

Top Abstract Introduction Methods Results Discussion References

 
Dietary trans fatty acid/hydrogenated fat intake has been shown to increase plasma LDL-C concentrations relative to unhydrogenated oil and decrease HDL-C concentrations relative to saturated fat.^7,9–14 The results of this study are consistent with previous observations. The unique finding of this study is that the metabolic basis for these effects is predominantly caused by changes in FCR rather than PR for HDL apoA-I and LDL apoB-100.

Data identifying the metabolic basis for differences in HDL-C concentrations induced by trans fatty acid/hydrogenated fat intake are limited. In the only report currently available, Khosla et al²⁶ assessed the effect of diets high in elaidic acid (18:1 t) or palmitic acid (C 16:0) in normocholesterolemic cibus monkeys. They reported that elaidic acid lowered HDL-C concentrations relative to palmitic acid and that this difference was attributable to an increase in apoA-I FCR. These findings in nonhuman primates are consistent with the results of the current study.

Differences observed in LDL-C concentrations after shifting the fatty acid pattern of the diet from unsaturated to trans fatty or saturated fatty acids were caused by changes in FCR rather than PR. No significant difference in TRL and IDL apoB-100 PS or kinetic behavior was observed attributable to the different experimental fats. These data suggest that differences in LDL-C concentrations were unlikely caused by changes in the conversion rate of TRL to IDL or IDL to LDL, but solely to the clearance of LDL. Similar to these observations, Khosla et al²⁶ reported no significant effect of elaidic relative to palmitic acid on apoB-100 metabolism in normocholesterolemic cebus monkeys.

In addition to elevated LDL-C concentrations, trans fatty acid intake has been associated with small but at times significant increases in triglyceride concentrations.^14–16 Whether the higher triglycerides concentrations are attributable to an increase in the chylomicron remnants or the VLDL fraction is unclear. Our previous work measuring remnant-like particle cholesterol or triglyceride concentrations after subjects consumed diets enriched in polyunsaturated or hydrogenated fat was not helpful in addressing this issue.⁴¹ In the present study, triglyceride concentrations and apoB-48 concentrations, PS and PR, tended to be higher, whereas apoB-48 FCR was lower, after subjects consumed the hydrogenated fat diet relative to the other diets. However, these differences did not reach statistical significance. It is important to note that triglyceride carrying lipoprotein particles tend to show a higher degree of lability than other lipoprotein particles. Likewise, differences in the activities of HTGL or LPL (involved in postprandial lipid metabolism by facilitating the clearance of chylomicrons derived from dietary fat) do not appear to explain potential differences in plasma triglyceride concentrations resulting from hydrogenated fat feeding.

In conclusion, the results of the present study demonstrate that an increase in apoA-I clearance rather than a decrease in production rates was the putative factor in modulating HDL-C concentrations after consumption of diets enriched in hydrogenated relative to saturated fat. The mechanism for the LDL-C elevating effect of hydrogenated fat appears to be similar to that of saturated fat, primarily determined by decreased catabolism. These findings support current recommendations to reduce saturated and hydrogenated fat consumption.
