The kinetics of the major apoproteins of high density lipoproteins (HDL), A-I(apoA-I) and A-II(apoA-II), were studied from the specific activity-time curves of these apoproteins, after reinjection of radioiodine-labeled HDL. In all 20 subjects, HDL apoprotein kinetics conformed to a two-pool model. The total fractional removal rates for the two apoproteins were similar, although the irreversible fractional removal rate appeared to be slightly greater for apoA-I. The mean transport for A-I and A-II was 12.2 mg/kg/day and 5.0 mg/kg/day, respectively. The mass of the apoprotein pools was strongly correlated with apoprotein production rate and also, to a lesser degree and inversely, with the irreversible fractional catabolic rate. Transport was directly correlated with body weight. Higher fractional catabolic rates, including the transfer rates between the two pools, were observed in five hypertriglyceridemic subjects; in contrast, five subjects with familial hypercholesterolemia tended to show lower fractional catabolic rates. These findings were supported by (1) a strongly positive correlation between the transport rates of HDL A-I and of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) apoB, determined simultaneously in 10 subjects; and (2) a significant inverse correlation between the irreversible fractional removal rate of HDLA-I and the concentration of low density lipoprotein (LDL) apoB, measured in 15 subjects. These observations underline the metabolic interrelationships of the major lipoprotein classes. Two subjects with familial hyperalphalipoproteinemia showed enlarged pool sizes, but normal transport, with irreversible fractional removal rates that were in the lower range for the group of 20 subjects.
