Higher chylomicron remnants and LDL particle numbers associate with CD36 SNPs and DNA methylation sites that reduce CD36.

ABSTRACT: Cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) variants influence fasting lipids and risk of metabolic syndrome, but their impact on postprandial lipids, an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, is unclear. We determined the effects of SNPs within a ?410 kb region encompassing CD36 and its proximal and distal promoters on chylomicron (CM) remnants and LDL particles at fasting and at 3.5 and 6 h following a high-fat meal (Genetics of Lipid Lowering Drugs and Diet Network study, n = 1,117). Five promoter variants associated with CMs, four with delayed TG clearance and five with LDL particle number. To assess mechanisms underlying the associations, we queried expression quantitative trait loci, DNA methylation, and ChIP-seq datasets for adipose and heart tissues that function in postprandial lipid clearance. Several SNPs that associated with higher serum lipids correlated with lower adipose and heart CD36 mRNA and aligned to active motifs for PPAR?, a major CD36 regulator. The SNPs also associated with DNA methylation sites that related to reduced CD36 mRNA and higher serum lipids, but mixed-model analyses indicated that the SNPs and methylation independently influence CD36 mRNA. The findings support contributions of CD36 SNPs that reduce adipose and heart CD36 RNA expression to inter-individual variability of postprandial lipid metabolism and document changes in CD36 DNA methylation that influence both CD36 expression and lipids.

Project description:The aims of the present study were to evaluate the metabolism of chylomicrons (CM) and of CM remnants after labelling with radioactive iodine and converting the iodinated CM into remnants in vitro. Lymph CM were radiolabelled with 125I or sham-labelled with 127I by either the ICl procedure or the tyramine-cellobiose (TC) procedure, then injected into rats. The clearance from plasma of the iodinated CM was compared with control non-iodinated lipid-labelled CM. After iodination with ICl, the plasma removal of endogenously labelled CM was significantly different from non-iodinated CM, with increased uptake of CM triacylglycerols by the liver. In contrast, the clearances from plasma and the uptake by organs of radiolabelled lipids of CM iodinated by the TC method (TC-CM) were similar to control CM. About 40% of the label from 125I-TC-CM was insoluble in 50% propan-2-ol, indicating association with CM apolipoprotein B48. Only about 8% of label was lipid soluble, mostly in phosphatidylethanolamine. Radioactivity from 125I-TC-CM injected intravenously in rats was cleared rapidly and by 30 min only 20% remained in plasma, whereas 48% was recovered in the liver. After fractionation of the plasma by density-gradient ultracentrifugation, most label remained associated with d (relative density) less than 1.006 lipoproteins. In intact rats label was also found associated with the low-density and high-density lipoprotein fractions of plasma. When the liver was excluded from circulation, the recovery of label in low-density- and high-density-lipoprotein fractions was greatly decreased. CM remnants were prepared in vivo by injecting 125I-TC-CM into functionally hepatectomized donors and compared with remnants prepared in vitro by incubation with purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase. Although remnants prepared in vitro cleared from plasma slower than remnants prepared in vivo, the size, lipid composition and apolipoprotein profile on gradient PAGE of the remnants were similar. We conclude that labelling of CM by the TC method avoided the 'artefactual' changes in metabolism seen after labelling by the ICl procedure. CM remnants when prepared in vitro using lipoprotein lipase were found to be similar to those prepared in vivo after injection into functionally hepatectomized rats.
