Endothelial lipase is a major genetic determinant for high-density lipoprotein concentration, structure, and metabolism

Abstract

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) protects against atherosclerosis. Endothelial lipase (EL) has been postulated to be involved in lipoprotein, and possibly HDL, metabolism, yet the evidence has been scarce and conflicting. We have inactivated EL in mice by gene targeting. EL −/− mice have elevated plasma and HDL cholesterol, and increased apolipoproteins A-I and E. NMR analysis reveals an abundance of large HDL particles. There is down-regulation of the transcripts for phospholipid transfer protein, but up-regulation of those for hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase. Plasma lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase is unchanged despite an increase in hepatic mRNA; lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase activity toward endogenous EL −/− substrate is, however, reduced by 50%. HDL clearance is decreased in EL −/− mice; both the structure of HDL and the presence of EL are factors that determine the rate of clearance. To determine EL's role in humans, we find a significant association between a single-nucleotide polymorphism 584C/T in the EL ( LIPG ) gene and HDL cholesterol in a well characterized population of 372 individuals. We conclude that EL is a major determinant of HDL concentration, structure, and metabolism in mice, and a major determinant of HDL concentration in humans.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • EL belongs to the same lipase family as LPL, but targets phospholipids on the shell of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), leading to decreased HDL levels.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
