What are Lipoproteins
Plasma Lipoproteins are spherical macromolecular complexes of lipids and specific proteins.
Function:To keep their component lipids soluble as they
transport them in the plasmaTo provide an efficient mechanism for
transporting their lipid contents to (and from) the tissues.

TYPES, COMPOSITION AND SYNTHESIS OF LIPOPROTEINS
![Page 4: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
CHYLOMICRONS
consist of triglycerides (85-92%), phospholipids (6-12%), cholesterol (1-3%) and proteins (1-2%)
transport exogenous lipids to liver, adipose, cardiac, and skeletal muscle tissue
![Page 5: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Stages of Chylomicrons
Nascent chylomicrons relatively large, having a diameter of 75 to 1,200 nm. are primarily composed of triglycerides (85%) and contain some
cholesterol and cholesteryl esters. The main apolipoprotein component is apolipoprotein B-48 (apo B-48).
Mature chylomicron While circulating in lymph and blood, chylomicrons exchange
components with high-density lipoproteins (HDL). The HDL donates apolipoprotein C-II (APOC2) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) to the nascent chylomicron and thus converts it to a mature chylomicron (often referred to simply as "chylomicron"). APOC2 is the cofactor for lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity.
Chylomicron remnant Once triglyceride stores are distributed, the chylomicron returns
APOC2 to the HDL (but keeps APOE), and, thus, becomes a chylomicron remnant, now only 30–50 nm. APOB48 and APOE are important to identify the chylomicron remnant in the liver for endocytosis and breakdown.

LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN (LDL)
enables transport of multiple different fat molecules, including cholesterol, within the water around cells and within the water-based bloodstream
Often referred to as the “bad cholesterol”
![Page 8: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
VLDL and LDL in the circulation
Release of VLDLs- VLDLs are secreted directly into the blood by the liver as nascent VLDL particles containing apolipoprotein B-100. They must obtain apo-C II and apo E from circulating HDL.
Modification of Circulating VLDLs- as it passes through the circulation, TAG is degraded by lipoprotein lipase causing VLDL to decrease in size and become denser. C and E apoproteins are returned to HDL, but the particles retain apo B-100. Finally, triacylglycerols are transferred from VLDL to HDL in exchange reaction that concomitantly transfers cholesteryl esters from HDL to LDL. This exchange is accomplished by cholesteryl ester transfer protein.
Production of LDL from VLDL in the plasma- with these modifications, the VLDL is converted in the plasma to LDL. An intermediate-sized particle or Intermediate Lipoprotein (remnant of VLDL) is observed during this transition. IDLs can also be taken up through receptor mediated endocytosis that uses apo E as the ligand.

Reverse Lipid Transport
involves efflux of cholesterol from peripheral cells to HDL
esterification of cholesterol to Phospahatidylcholine Cholesterol Transferase (PCAT/LCAT)
binding of the cholesteryl ester rich HDL to liver and steroidogenic cells
Selective transfer of CE into steroidogenic cells Release of lipid-depleted HDL
![Page 11: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What are apolipoproteins? What is their significance?
Apolipoproteins are required for the assembly and structure of lipoproteins.
Apolipoproteins also serve to activate enzymes important in lipoprotein metabolism and to mediate the binding of lipoproteins to cell-surface receptors.

Exogenous Transport
![Page 14: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Exogenous Transport
1. Dietary cholesterol and fatty acids are absorbed.2. Triglycerides are formed in the intestinal cell from free fatty
acids and glycerol and cholesterol is esterified.3. Triglycerides and cholesterol combine to form chylomicrons.4. Chylomicrons enter the circulation and travel to peripheral
sites.5. In peripheral tissues, free fatty acids are released from the
chylomicrons to be used as energy, converted to triglyceride or stored in adipose.
6. Remnants are used in the formation of HDL.

Endogenous transport
![Page 16: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Endogenous Transport
1. VLDL is formed in the liver from triglycerides and cholesterol esters.2. These can be hydrolyzed by lipoprotein lipase to form IDL or VLDL
remnants.3. VLDL remnants are cleared from the circulation or incorporated into
LDL.4. LDL particles contain a core of cholesterol esters and a smaller
amount of triglyceride.5. LDL is internalized by hepatic and nonhepatic tissues.6. In the liver, LDL is converted into bile acids and secreted into the
intestines.7. In non hepatic tissues, LDL is used in hormone production, cell
membrane synthesis, or stored.8. LDL is also taken up by macrophages and other cells which can lead
to excess accumulation and the formation of foam cells which are important in plaque formation.

Abetalipoproteinemia is associated with fat-soluble vitamin deficiency
![Page 30: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Fat Soluble Vitamins
Require protein carriers to be transported in the blood
Vitamin A, E, K normally transported from enterocytes
to the liver by chylomicrons
![Page 31: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Fat Soluble Vitamins
Inability to make β-lipoproteins causes severely reduced absorption/ malabsorption of dietary fats and fat soluble vitamins from the digestive tract to the bloodstream.
![Page 32: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Why do patients with this disorder do not develop vitamin D deficiency?
Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin. In order to metabolize it, it is important that we have the specific lipoprotein apolipoprotein B in our bodies. Vitamin D deficiency is not present in abetalipoproteinemia since there are other sources aside from the dietary vitamin D.
![Page 33: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Why do patients with this disorder do not develop vitamin D deficiency?
In addition, upon skin exposure to ultraviolet light, cutaneous provitamin D3 is converted to previtamin D3, which isomerizes into vitamin D3 and translocates into the circulation.
So even in the presence of abetalipoproteinemia, Vitamin D can still be metabolized in our body.

Genetic etiology and clinical manifestations
![Page 37: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Other disorders, etiology, manifestation
Lipoprotein Lipase & ApoC-II deficiency– Genetic Etiology: LPL is required for the
hydrolysis of triglycerides in chylomicrons and VLDL. ApoC-II is a cofactor for LPL Genetic deficiency of either LPL or apoC-II results in impaired lipolysis and profound elevations in plasma chylomicrons.
![Page 38: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Other disorders, etiology, manifestation
Lipoprotein Lipase & ApoC-II deficiency– Manifestation:
severe abdominal pain caused by acute pancreatitis
retinal blood vessels are opalescentEruptive xanthomas
– Hepatosplenomegaly
![Page 39: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Other disorders, etiology, manifestationFAMILIAL
HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA– Genetic Etiology: Low-density
lipoprotein receptor gene (LDL); there are more than 100 known mutations. The LDL receptor recognizes apolipoprotein B100 or apolipoprotein E; therefore, a mutation of the receptor results in impaired uptake of cholesterol into cells.
![Page 40: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Other disorders, etiology, manifestationFAMILIAL HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA
– ManifestationsElevated cholesterol level: Heterozygotes have half the normal amount of LDL receptors and 2-3 times the normal level of cholesterol; homozygotes have five or more times the normal level of cholesterol.
![Page 41: Abetalipoproteinemia powerpoint report](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022052310/545f42daaf79592b708b4e08/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Other disorders, etiology, manifestationFAMILIAL
HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA– Manifestations
Tendon sheath xanthomas, corneal arcus, and xanthelasma.
Early atherosclerosis and its consequences; homozygotes usuallydie of cardiovascular disease before the age of 30 years.
