Abstract: | AIM:To investigate the interaction and the mechanism of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) in lipoprotein. METHODS:The S1P content in the plasma and lipoprotein from 10-week-old PLTP transgenic (PLTP-Tg) mice and wild-type (WT) mice (n=8 each) was assayed. The transport of S1P by PLTP was determined by S1P transfer assay. The content of specific S1P carrier, apolipoprotein M, was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS:Plasma S1P contents were decreased by 21.1% in PLTP-Tg mice compared with WT mice. S1P content in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) fraction (HDL-S1P) from PLTP-Tg mice was decreased by 35.1% compared with WT mice, whereas the S1P in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) fraction (LDL-S1P) was increased by 127.4%. The results of S1P transfer assay indicated that PLTP facilitated S1P transport from erythrocyte to recombinant liposome at 37 ℃ in D-Hanks buffer solution. The plasma content of apolipoprotein M was not changed in PLTP-Tg mice compared with WT mice. CONCLUSION:PLTP is a key factor to maintain plasma HDL-S1P under physical condition. Overexpression of PLTP decreases the HDL-S1P but increases LDL-S1P. The mechanism might be related to the capability of PLTP on transferring S1P from erythrocyte to lipoprotein. |
