The implication of cigarette smoking and cessation on macrophage cholesterol efflux in coronary artery disease patients.

ABSTRACT: We investigated ATP-binding cassette transporters A1/G1 expression and function in mediating cholesterol efflux by examining the macrophages of cigarette-smoking patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) before and after smoking abstinence. Peripheral blood monocyte cells were collected from nonsmokers (n = 17), non-CAD (NCAD) smokers (n = 35), and CAD smokers (n = 32) before and after 3 months of smoking cessation. We found that the ABCA1 expression level was lower in macrophages from NCAD and CAD smokers than from nonsmokers at baseline. The ABCA1 function of mediating cholesterol efflux was reduced in NCAD and CAD smokers as compared with nonsmokers. After 3 months of smoking cessation, ABCA1 expression and function were improved in CAD smokers. However, ABCG1 expression and function did not change after smoking cessation. Furthermore, ABCA1 expression was inhibited by tar in human acute monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1-derived macrophages through the inhibition of liver X receptors. Nicotine and carbon monoxide did not inhibit ABCA1 expression. Our results indicate that chronic cigarette smoking impaired ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux in macrophages and that tobacco abstinence reversed the function and expression of ABCA1, especially in CAD patients. It was tobacco tar, rather than nicotine or carbon monoxide, that played a major role in the tobacco-induced disturbance of cellular cholesterol homeostasis.

Project description:ImportanceCigarette smoking during pregnancy increases the risk of preterm birth, low birth weight, and infant mortality.ObjectiveTo assess the probability of preterm birth among expectant mothers who smoked cigarettes before pregnancy and quit smoking at the start or during pregnancy.Design, setting, and participantsThis cross-sectional study analyzed information provided on live birth certificates from 2011 through 2017 that were obtained from US states that implemented the 2003 revision of the US live birth certificate. In total, 25?233?503 expectant mothers who delivered live neonates and had known prepregnancy and trimester-specific cigarette smoking frequency were included in the analyses.ExposuresCigarette smoking frequency (1-9, 10-19, and ?20 cigarettes per day) 3 months prior to pregnancy and for each trimester during pregnancy.Main outcomes and measuresCigarette smoking cessation throughout pregnancy, after the first trimester, after the second trimester, and during the third trimester irrespective of first and second trimester smoking. Probability of preterm birth (<37 weeks' gestation).ResultsOf 25?233?503 expectant mothers who delivered live neonates between 2011 and 2017, the modal age at delivery was 25 to 29 years; 52.9% were non-Hispanic white, 23.6% were Hispanic, and 14.2% were non-Hispanic black women; 22?600?196 mothers did not smoke during the 3 months prior to pregnancy, and 2?633?307 smoked during the 3 months prior to pregnancy. The proportion of prepregnancy smokers who quit throughout pregnancy was 24.3% in 2011 and 24.6% in 2017. The proportion of prepregnancy smokers who quit during the third trimester was 39.5% in 2011 and 39.7% in 2017. High-frequency cigarette smoking often occurred among expectant mothers who smoked during pregnancy (eg, 46.9% of third-trimester smokers smoked ?10 cigarettes per day in 2017). The probability of preterm birth decreased more the earlier smoking cessation occurred in pregnancy. For example, the probability of preterm birth was 9.8% (95% CI, 9.7%-10.0%) among 25- to 29-year-old, non-Hispanic white, primigravida and primiparous expectant mothers (ie, pregnant for the first time and not yet delivered) who smoked 1 to 9 cigarettes per day prior to pregnancy and maintained this frequency throughout their pregnancy. The probability of preterm birth was 9.0% (95% CI, 8.8%-9.1%) if smoking cessation occurred at the start of the second trimester (an 8.9% relative decrease), and 7.8% (95% CI, 7.7%-8.0%) if cessation occurred at the start of pregnancy (a 20.3% relative decrease).Conclusions and relevanceQuitting smoking-and quitting early in pregnancy-was associated with reduced risk of preterm birth even for high-frequency cigarette smokers.

Project description:Objective- The cell-cholesterol efflux capacity of HDL (high-density lipoprotein) is inversely associated with coronary heart disease risk. ABCA1 (ATP-binding cassette transporter A1) plays a crucial role in cholesterol efflux from macrophages to preβ-1-HDL. We tested the hypothesis that coronary heart disease patients have functionally abnormal preβ-1-HDL. Approach and Results- HDL cell-cholesterol efflux capacity via the ABCA1 and the SR-BI (scavenger receptor class B type I) pathways, HDL antioxidative capacity, apo (apolipoprotein) A-I-containing HDL particles, and inflammatory- and oxidative-stress markers were measured in a case-control study of 100 coronary heart disease cases and 100 sex-matched controls. There were significant positive correlations between ABCA1-dependent cholesterol efflux and the levels of small lipid-poor preβ-1 particles ( R2=0.535) and between SR-BI-dependent cholesterol efflux and the levels of large lipid-rich (α-1+α-2) HDL particles ( R2=0.712). Cases had significantly higher (87%) preβ-1 concentrations than controls, but the functionality of their preβ-1 particles (preβ-1 concentration normalized ABCA1-dependent efflux capacity) was significantly lower (-31%). Cases had significantly lower (-12%) mean concentration of large HDL particles, but the functionality of their particles (α-1+α-2 concentration normalized SR-BI-dependent efflux capacity) was significantly higher (22%) compared with that of controls. HDL antioxidative capacity was significantly lower (-16%) in cases than in controls. There were no significant correlations between either preβ-1 functionality or large HDL particle functionality with HDL antioxidative capacity or the concentrations of inflammatory- and oxidative-stress markers. Conclusions- HDL cell-cholesterol efflux capacity is significantly influenced by both the concentration and the functionality of specific HDL particles participating in cell-cholesterol efflux. Coronary heart disease patients have higher than normal preβ-1 concentrations with decreased functionality and lower than normal large HDL particle concentrations with enhanced functionality.
