A protein factor from the d greater than 1.25 g/ml plasma fraction controls the transfer of cholesterol esters between high density lipoproteins and very low density lipoproteins. This transfer is time-dependent, and follows saturation kinetics relative to the concentration ratio of acceptor to donor lipoproteins. Although the process is reversible, the transfer rates are faster from high density to very low density lipoproteins and result in a net increase of cholesterol esters in the very low density lipoproteins. Under the same conditions, there is also a net mass transfer of cholesterol esters from high density lipoproteins to chylomicrons. This constitutes the first demonstration of cholesterol ester mass transfer between isolated lipoproteins and contrasts with the equilibrium of cholesterol esters between HDL and LDL which we previously demonstrated [4]. The apparent maximum transfer rate of cholesterol esters from high density to very low density lipoproteins was calculated to be about 80 nmoles cholesterol esters/h/ml plasma, which is very similar to the initial rate of reaction of lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase in plasma. It is concluded that cholesterol ester formation in high density lipoproteins and their transfer to triglyceride-rich lipoproteins may be closely coupled.
