Transgenic and gene disruption experiments in mice have revealed that apolipoprotein (apo) A-V is a potent regulator of plasma triglyceride (TG) levels. To investigate the molecular basis of apoA-V function, the ability of isolated recombinant apoA-V to modulate lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity was examined in vitro. With three distinct lipid substrate particles, including very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), a TG/phospholipid emulsion, or dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine liposomes, apoA-V had little effect on LPL activity. In the absence or presence apolipoprotein C-II, apoA-V marginally inhibited LPL activity. On the other hand, apoA-V-dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine disc particles bound to heparin-Sepharose and were specifically eluted upon application of a linear gradient of NaCl. The interaction of apoA-V with sulfated glycosaminoglycans was further studied by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. ApoA-V showed strong binding to heparin-coated chips, and binding was competed by free heparin. ApoA-V enrichment enhanced binding of apoC-II-deficient chylomicrons and VLDL to heparin-coated chips. When LPL was first bound to the heparin-coated chip, apoA-V-enriched chylomicrons showed binding. Finally, human pre- and post-heparin plasma samples were subjected to immunoblot analysis with anti-apoA-V IgG. No differences in the amount of apoA-V present were detected. Taken together, the results show that apoA-V lipid complexes bind heparin and, when present on TG-rich lipoprotein particles, may promote their association with cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Through such interactions, apoA-V may indirectly affect LPL activity, possibly explaining its inverse correlation with plasma TG levels.
