Abstract/OtherAbstract:
CONTEXT: Oral contraceptives with estrogen plus progestin are likely to influence apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoprotein metabolism by changing the expression of different enzymes or receptors that play a major role in this metabolism. However, the precise changes in apoB kinetic parameters induced by oral contraceptives that are now currently used are unknown. OBJECTIVES: We studied the impact of Moneva, containing 30 microg ethinylestradiol and 75 microg gestodene, on the apoB production rate and fractional catabolic rate of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). DESIGN: Using a 16-h [(13)C]leucine infusion, we performed an apoB kinetic study in nine normolipidemic women before and 3 months after beginning Moneva. RESULTS: On Moneva, serum triglycerides increased moderately (+12%, P = 0.04) in the fed state, whereas serum LDL remained unchanged. LDL particles were richer in triglycerides in women on Moneva (7.5 +/- 1.5 vs. 4.3 +/- 1.0% of total LDL mass, P < 0.01). The apoB production rate of VLDL, IDL, and LDL increased by 49 (P = 0.04), 55 (P = 0.05), and 51% (P = 0.01), respectively. The fractional catabolic rate of apoB in LDL increased by 36% (P = 0.04). Consequently, the serum LDL apoB pool size remained unchanged (26.49 +/- 6.98 vs. 23.96 +/- 5.37 mg/kg). CONCLUSION: Oral contraception with ethinylestradiol plus gestodene induces an increase in the production rate of apoB-containing lipoproteins all along the VLDL-->IDL-->LDL cascade. The increased production rate of apoB in LDL is counterbalanced by a higher fractional catabolic rate of apoB in LDL, thus precluding an increase in the concentration of atherogenic LDL particles.
