Abstract

Zusatzinfos

Increased levels of low-density lipoproteins are well-established risk factors of endothelial dysfunction and the metabolic syndrome. In this study, we evaluated the effect of native low-density lipoprotein (nLDL) and oxidized LDL (oxLDL) on the expression of genes of the renin-angiotensin system (angiotensin-converting enzyme, ACE; angiotensin II type 1 receptor, AT(1)) and their receptors (low-density lipoprotein receptor: LDLR; lectin-like oxLDL receptor: LOX-1; toll-like receptor 4: TLR4) in primary cultures of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. ACE and AT(1) expressions were significantly increased after stimulation with nLDL and oxLDL. OxLDL receptor LOX-1 showed a maximum induction after 7 hours. Increased LOX-1 protein expression in response to oxLDL could be blocked by a LOX-1-specific antibody. TLR4 expression was increased by nLDL and oxLDL as well. We conclude that LDL and oxLDL can activate the renin-angiotensin system and their receptors LDLR, LOX-1, and TLR4 in human endothelial cells. These data suggest a novel link between hypercholesterolemia and hypertension in patients with the metabolic syndrome.
