Increased phosphatidylcholine and its hydroperoxides in serum low-density lipoproteins from patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is classified into simple steatosis (SS) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) according to histological findings from liver biopsies. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), the main component of phospholipids in serum lipoproteins, is easily oxidized to phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide (PC-OOH). Although a lipid composition in the low-density lipoproteins (LDL) from patients with NASH could be abnormal, it remains unclear. Here, to better understand the characteristics of lipids in the LDL from NASH and SS, we compared the composition of PC and PC-OOH species in LDL particles (LDL-PC, LDL-PCOOH) from these patients, then clarified the association between these lipids and NASH severity.
Methods: The serum samples from patients with NASH (female, n = 9) and SS (female, n = 4; male, n = 2) were used for isolation of LDL. Total lipids were extracted from isolated LDL, and the species of PC and PC-OOH were measured using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry.
Results: The sum of LDL-PC and the sum of LDL-PCOOH were significantly higher in NASH than in SS. Several LDL-PC (PC 32:0, 32:1, 32:2, 34:3, 36:2, sum of PC with saturated fatty acyl chains and sum of LDL-PC with polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains) and several LDL-PCOOH (34:2, 36:2, 36:3 and total) were increased significantly with increasing fibrosis score. In particular, a series of LDL-PCOOH were more reflective of the severity of fibrosis score.
Conclusions: LDL-PC and LDL-PCOOH species were strongly correlated with the fibrosis score in NASH, which suggests that abnormal LDL is involved in the development of liver fibrosis.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry is the fully peer reviewed international journal of the Association for Clinical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine.
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry accepts papers that contribute to knowledge in all fields of laboratory medicine, especially those pertaining to the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of human disease. It publishes papers on clinical biochemistry, clinical audit, metabolic medicine, immunology, genetics, biotechnology, haematology, microbiology, computing and management where they have both biochemical and clinical relevance. Papers describing evaluation or implementation of commercial reagent kits or the performance of new analysers require substantial original information. Unless of exceptional interest and novelty, studies dealing with the redox status in various diseases are not generally considered within the journal''s scope. Studies documenting the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with particular phenotypes will not normally be considered, given the greater strength of genome wide association studies (GWAS). Research undertaken in non-human animals will not be considered for publication in the Annals.
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry is also the official journal of NVKC (de Nederlandse Vereniging voor Klinische Chemie) and JSCC (Japan Society of Clinical Chemistry).
