High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl esters are taken up by fibroblasts via HDL particle uptake and via selective uptake, i.e., cholesteryl ester uptake independent of HDL particle uptake. In the present study we investigated HDL selective uptake and HDL particle uptake by J774 macrophages. HDL3 (d = 1.125-1.21 g/ml) was labeled with intracellularly trapped tracers: 125I-labeled N-methyltyramine-cellobiose-apo A-I (125I-NMTC-apo A-I) to trace apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) and [3H]cholesteryl oleyl ether to trace cholesteryl esters. J774 macrophages, incubated at 37 degrees C in medium containing doubly labeled HDL3, took up 125I-NMTC-apo A-I, indicating HDL3 particle uptake (102.7 ng HDL3 protein/mg cell protein per 4 h at 20 micrograms/ml HDL3 protein). Apparent HDL3 uptake according to the uptake of [3H]cholesteryl oleyl ether (470.4 ng HDL3 protein/mg cell protein per 4 h at 20 micrograms/ml HDL3 protein) was in significant excess on 125I-NMTC-apo A-I uptake, i.e., J774 macrophages demonstrated selective uptake of HDL3 cholesteryl esters. To investigate regulation of HDL3 uptake, cell cholesterol was modified by preincubation with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or acetylated LDL (acetyl-LDL). Afterwards, uptake of doubly labeled HDL3, LDL (apo B,E) receptor activity or cholesterol mass were determined. Preincubation with LDL or acetyl-LDL increased cell cholesterol up to approx. 3.5-fold over basal levels. Increased cell cholesterol had no effect on HDL3 particle uptake. In contrast, LDL- and acetyl-LDL-loading decreased selective uptake (apparent uptake 606 vs. 366 ng HDL3 protein/mg cell protein per 4 h in unloaded versus acetyl-LDL-loaded cells at 20 micrograms HDL3 protein/ml). In parallel with decreased selective uptake, specific 125I-LDL degradation was down-regulated. Using heparin as well as excess unlabeled LDL, it was shown that HDL3 uptake is independent of LDL (apo B,E) receptors. In summary, J774 macrophages take up HDL3 particles. In addition, J774 cells also selectively take up HDL3-associated cholesteryl esters. HDL3 selective uptake, but not HDL3 particle uptake, can be regulated.
