The aims of the present study were to determine whether high-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality-mediated cholesterol efflux is altered in Alzheimer's disease and to investigate the role and effect of amyloid-beta (A beta) in the regulation of the anti-atherogenic activity of HDL. Eighty-seven elderly subjects were recruited, of whom 27 were healthy, 27 had mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 33 had mild Alzheimer's disease (mAD). Our results showed that total cholesterol levels are negatively correlated with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score (r = -0.2602, p = 0.0182). HDL from the mAD patients was less efficient at mediating cholesterol efflux from J774 macrophages (p < 0.05) than HDL from the healthy subjects and MCI patients. While HDL from the MCI patients was also less efficient at mediating cholesterol efflux than HDL from the healthy subjects, the difference was not significant. Interestingly, the difference between the healthy subjects and the MCI and mAD patients with respect to the capacity of HDL to mediate cholesterol efflux disappeared when ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1)-enriched J774 macrophages were used. HDL fluidity was significantly inversely correlated with the MMSE scores (r = -0.4137, p < 0.009). In vitro measurements of cholesterol efflux using J774 macrophages showed that neither A beta(1-40) nor A beta(1-42) stimulate cholesterol efflux from unenriched J774 macrophages in basal or ABCA1-enriched J774 macrophages.
