Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We have investigated the human CaCo-2 enterocyte model for secretion of the plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein, LTP-I. CaCo-2 cells secrete a cholesteryl ester transfer protein which possesses molecular identity with plasma LTP-I, demonstrated by anti-LTP-I immunoblot analysis and immunoinhibition of all cell-secreted cholesteryl ester transfer activity. When CaCo-2 are cultured on permeable membranes, cholesteryl ester transfer activity is detected only in the lower culture compartment. Thus, CaCo-2 vectorially sort and secrete LTP-I, as well as the intestinal apolipoproteins, from the basolateral cellular domain. Over a 24-h period, CaCo-2 secrete cholesteryl ester transfer activity in a time-dependent manner, at approximately twice the rate of HepG2. Furthermore, CaCo-2 enterocytes, but not HepG2 hepatocytes, regulate LTP-I secretion in response to fatty acid concentration in the culture medium. Based on these observations, we speculate that the intestine may be the principal regulated source of human plasma LTP-I.
