Abstract

Objectives— The atherogenic oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) induces the formation of carbonyl-protein adducts and activates the endothelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway, which is now regarded as a central element for signal transduction. We aimed to investigate whether and by which mechanism the anti-atherogenic high-density lipoprotein (HDL) prevents these effects of oxLDL. Methods and Results— In vascular cultured cells, HDL and apolipoprotein A-I inhibit oxLDL-induced EGFR activation and subsequent signaling by acting through 2 separate mechanisms. First, HDL, like the aldehyde scavenger dinitrophenyl hydrazine, prevented the formation of oxLDL-induced carbonyl–protein adducts and 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE)–EGFR adducts. Secondly, HDL enhanced the cellular antioxidant defenses by preventing (through a scavenger receptor class B-1 (SR-BI)–dependent mechanism) the increase of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and subsequent EGFR activation triggered by oxLDL or H 2 O 2 . A pharmacological approach suggests that this protective effect of HDL is independent of cellular glutathione level and glutathione peroxidase activity, but it requires catalase activity. Finally, we report that oxLDL upregulates both membrane type 1 (MT1)-matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MT1-MMP) and MMP-2 through an EGFR-dependent mechanism and that HDL inhibits these events. Conclusions— HDLs block in vitro oxLDL-induced EGFR signaling and subsequent MMP-2 activation by inhibiting carbonyl adducts formation and cellular oxidative stress. These effects of HDL may participate to reduce cell activation, excessive remodeling, and alteration of the vascular wall.
