To determine whether damaged arterial wall selectively accumulates lipoproteins, normocholesterolemic rabbits were injected with human radiolabeled low density lipoproteins, high density lipoproteins, and/or albumin 24 hr to 12 weeks after balloon-catheter de-endothelialization of the abdominal aorta. When 125I-labeled low density lipoproteins and 99mTc-labeled albumin were injected simultaneously, the amount of 125I-low density lipoprotein present 24 hr later in abdominal aortas increased steadily, for several weeks, above the amount present at 24 hr in control animals. The increase correlated closely with the degree of re-endothelialization and correlated closely with the degree of re-endothelialization and reached an average maximum for the whole abdominal aorta of three times control when re-endothelialization was between 75 and 85% complete. By contrast, the amounts of 99mTc-albumin or 125I-labeled high density lipoprotein in balloon-damaged abdominal aortas, and the amounts of 125I-low density lipoprotein, 125I-high density lipoprotein, or 99mTc-albumin in undamaged thoracic aortas of injured animals showed no such increase. As early as 2 weeks after de-endothelialization, en face radioautographs made following injection of 125I-labeled low density lipoproteins revealed localized areas of greatest radioactivity around the leading edges of regenerating endothelial islands, broad areas of intermediate radioactivity corresponding to the de-endothelialized areas, and very like radioactivity in the re-endothelialized areas. This pattern occurred rarely with 125I-labeled high density lipoproteins and not at all with 125I-labeled albumin. The results suggest that low density lipoproteins are selectively accumulated by the healing rabbit aorta and that the accumulation is greatest in regions where the endothelium is actively regenerating.
