Objectives--Cholesterol efflux is achieved by several mechanisms. This study examines contributions of these pathways to efflux to human serum.
Methods and Results--Human fibroblasts were stably transfected with SR-BI while ABCA1 was upregulated. Quantitation of cholesterol efflux to human serum demonstrated that there was efflux from cells without either protein. Expression of ABCA1 produced a small increase in efflux, whereas SR-BI expression had a dramatic impact. To quantitate ABCA1 and SR-BI contribution, fibroblasts were pretreated with Probucol and BLT-1 to, respectively, inhibit these efflux proteins. Exposing SR-BI-expressing fibroblast to BLT-1 inhibited efflux by 67%. Probucol pretreatment of ABCA1-expressing fibroblast reduced efflux to serum by 26%. A large fraction of total efflux was uninhibited. For both J774 and mouse peritoneal macrophages, contributions of either ABCA1 or SR-BI to efflux to serum were low, with background/uninhibited efflux contributing from 70% to 90% of total efflux.
Conclusions--We have shown that ABCA1-mediated efflux to serum responds to the pool of lipid-free/poor apolipoproteins, whereas phospholipid-containing particles mediate SR-BI efflux. Although SR-BI and ABCA1 contribute to efflux from fibroblasts and cholesterol-enriched macrophages, a large proportion of the total efflux to human serum is mediated by a mechanism that is neither SR-BI nor ABCA1.
