BACKGROUND: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) features elevated oxidative stress and accelerated atherosclerosis driven by elevated levels of atherogenic lipoproteins relative to subnormal levels of atheroprotective high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Small, dense HDL3 potently protects low-density lipoprotein (LDL) against proinflammatory oxidative damage. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether antioxidative and/or anti-inflammatory activities of HDL are defective in FH and whether such defects are corrected by LDL apheresis. METHODS: Antioxidative and antiinflammatory activities of HDL were evaluated as protection of reference LDL from oxidative stress and capacity to prevent accumulation of proinflammatory oxidised lipids, respectively. Lipid surface rigidity of HDL was assessed using a fluorescent probe. HDL components were measured by analytical approaches. Systemic oxidative stress was characterized as plasma 8-isoprostanes. RESULTS: Pre-LDL-apheresis, FH patients (n = 10) exhibited elevated systemic oxidative stress (3.3-fold, P < 0.001) vs. sex- and age-matched normolipidemic controls (n = 10). Both antioxidative and antiinflammatory activity of HDL3 were impaired (up to -91%, P < 0.01) in FH. Sphingomyelin and saturated fatty acid contents were elevated in FH HDL3, resulting in enhanced lipid surface rigidity. The surface lipid content (phospholipids, free cholesterol) was reduced in FH (up to -15%, P < 0.001), whereas content of core lipids (cholesteryl esters, triglycerides) was elevated (up to +17%, P < 0.001). Molar apolipoprotein A-I content of HDL3 was subnormal in FH. A single LDL-apheresis session partially corrected (by up to 76%) deficient HDL antiatherogenic activities, attenuated systemic oxidative stress and partially normalised both the lipid composition and surface rigidity of HDL particles. CONCLUSIONS: FH features elevated oxidative stress and deficient antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of small, dense HDL3; such functional deficiency is intimately linked to anomalies in lipid and protein composition, which may impair the capacity of HDL to acquire and inactivate oxidized lipids.
