Epidemiological data suggest a link between chronic inflammation condition and atherosclerosis. Infection and inflammation can also impair lipoprotein metabolism and produce a wide variety of changes in plasma concentrations of lipids and lipoproteins. Twenty-one patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) and 28 healthy subjects were recruited. Serum concentrations of lipids, lipoproteins, apolipoproteins, leptin, ghrelin, and inflammation markers (C-reactive protein and serum amyloid A) were measured, and subjects' lipoproteins were characterized. The ability of patients with serum IBD to efflux free cell cholesterol was measured. Serum cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein (apo) A-I, apoC-II, apoC-III bound to apoB, phospholipid, and phospholipids not bound to apoB levels were significantly lower, whereas serum triglyceride, serum amyloid A, and C-reactive protein levels were significantly higher in patients with active IBD. Apolipoprotein A-I immunoreactivity (pre-beta small particles and small alpha-high-density lipoprotein particles) is decreased in patients with IBD. In contrast, apoE immunoreactivity (slow/small apoE containing lipoprotein particles [LpE particle]) increased in these patients. The efflux capacity of serum from patients with IBD using [(3)H]-cholesterol-labeled Fu5AH cells was reduced (P < .005). Our results demonstrate that, in subjects with active IBD, inflammation leads to alterations in lipid, apolipoprotein, and lipoprotein profiles and reduced cholesterol efflux. These changes are similar to those proposed to promote atherogenesis and may contribute to the development of cardiovascular events.
