Abstract—Hyperglycemia and dyslipoproteinemia are biochemical markers of diabetes mellitus (DM). Elevated levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) with and without reduction of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in plasma have been frequently found in patients with DM. Our previous studies indicated that glycation enhances low density lipoprotein (LDL)-induced production of PAI-1 and further decreases tPA generation in vascular endothelial cells (ECs). The present study demonstrated that treatment with antioxidants, butylated hydroxytoluene or vitamin E, blocked native LDL– and glycated LDL–induced changes in PAI-1 and tPA generation in ECs. Native or glycated high density lipoprotein (HDL) did not significantly alter tPA generation in ECs. Glycated but not native HDL (100 µg/mL) moderately increased PAI-1 release from ECs. Cotreatment with native or glycated HDL inhibited LDL-induced or glycated LDL–induced changes in PAI-1 and tPA generation in ECs. The abundance of conjugated dienes was increased in glycated or EC-modified LDL. Treatment with butylated hydroxytoluene, vitamin E, or HDL reduced the abundance of conjugated dienes in glycated or EC-modified LDL. The effects of antioxidants and HDL on LDL-induced or its glycated LDL–induced changes in the generation of PAI-1 and tPA were also found in cultured human coronary artery ECs. The findings of the present study suggest that antioxidants and HDL may attenuate native LDL– or glycated LDL–induced changes in the generation of fibrinolytic regulators from vascular ECs, which possibly results from their inhibition on the lipid peroxidation of LDL particles. Treatment with antioxidants or hypolipidemic agents potentially improves fibrinolytic activity and reduces thrombotic tendencies in patients with DM.

Key Words: LDL • glycation • antioxidants • HDL • plasminogen activator inhibitor-1
