    Influence of the concentration and molecular composition on the LDL and HDL functional characteristics in patients with the metabolic syndrome
    (2012) CASELLA-FILHO, Antonio; TROMBETTA, Ivani C.; CASELLA, Lia B.; DENARDI, Celise; DOURADO, Paulo; SEGRE, Alexandre; ROEVER-BORGES, Leonardo; NEGRAO, Carlos Eduardo; MARANHAO, Raul; CHAGAS, Antonio Carlos
    Introduction: Long-term exercise associated with diet changes lipoproteins plasma levels. Objectives: We sought to analize the effects of short-term exercise training without any specific diet (T) on the concentration,composition and functional characteristics of LDL and HDL in patients with metabolic syndrome (MS). Methods: Forty sedentary persons were studied,30 with MS and 10 controls.Twenty of those with MS were subjected to a 3 times/week controlled training load (45 min/day) for 3 months on a bicycle ergometer.LDL and HDL subfractions were obtained by plasma ultracentrifugation 1 and their compositions were analyzed. LDL from control subjects was incubated with HDL2a,HDL3b from the MS patients (before and after T) and the in vitro resistance to oxidation was verified. An artificial lipoprotein emulsion (LDE) labeled with 14C-phospholipid, 3 H-triglycerides, 14 C-cholesterol and 3 H-cholesteryl ester was incubated with plasma from the participants. After precipitation of VLDL, LDL and LDE the HDL-containing supernatant was counted for radioactivity to verify the HDL ability to accept lipids. 2 Results: T decreased triglycerides (TG) but did not change apoB,apoA-I,LDL-C and HDL-C plasma levels. LDL resistance to oxidation increased (+91%) after T,associated with a decrease in the LDL content of apoB (-16%) and TG (-14%) and in the concentration of the small and dense LDL particles. Oxidizability of control LDL decreased when mixed with HDL2a or 3b from patients with MS, before vs. after T (-23% for HDL2a and -18% for HDL3b),associated with an increase in PON1 activity in the MS group (58.3±36.2 before vs.70.7±38.4ng/ml/min after T, p<0.05) and with a significant decrease in the content of total cholesterol (TC) and TG in HDL3b and HDL3c but with an increase in cholesterol ester (CE) in HDL3b. T did not significantly modify concentrations of TC and TG in HDL2a, 2b and 3a. Phospholipids and total protein content did not change in all HDL subfractions.T significantly increased free cholesterol and CE transfer from LDE to HDL in MS group to levels similar to those observed in controls. Conclusion: In patients with the MS, T influences the LDL and HDL functionality by earlier changes in molecular composition rather than their concentration, emphasizing the early benefits of exercise and highlighting the importance of evaluating the functional aspects of the lipoproteins besides their plasma levels

    RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN HDL FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS AND ENDOTHELIAL VASCULAR FUNCTION AFTER SHORT-TERM EXERCISE TRAINING IN PATIENTS WITH THE METABOLIC SYNDROME
    (2013) CASELLA-FILHO, Antonio; TROMBETTA, Ivani C.; DOURADO, Paulo; LEITE-JUNIOR, Antonio C.; JONKE, Vivian; SEGRE, Alexandre; SANTOS, Raul; NEGRAO, Carlos E.; MARANHAO, Raul C.; CHAGAS, Antonio
    Introduction: Endothelial dysfunction, leading to vasodilation impairment and atherosclerosis, frequently affects patients with metabolic syndrome (MS). A recent study showed that HDL estimulates endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS: a key regulator of vascular nitric oxide production) by activation of Akt and MAP kinases in cultured endothelial cells. Objectives: To investigate the relationships between HDL characteristics (concentration, composition, functionality) on the eNOS availability and endothelial vascular function in patients with MS after a short-term exercise training (T). Methods: Forty sedentary persons (30 MS and 10 controls) were studied. Twenty with MS were subjected to a 3 times/week of a training load (45min/d) for 3 months on a bicycle. Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), blood nitrite concentrations (biomarkers of eNOS availability) and HDL subfractions obtained by plasma ultracentrifugation were analyzed. A control LDL was incubated with HDL subfractions from the patients with MS (before-after T) and the in vitro resistance to oxidation was verified. An artificial radio-labeled lipoprotein emulsion was incubated with plasma from the participants. After precipitation of VLDL and LDL, the HDL containing supernatant was counted for radioactivity, to verify the HDL ability to accept lipids. Endothelial vascular function was assessed from forearm blood flow-mediated responses to vasodilation tests (FMD). Results: T did not change HDL-C concentration but changed the molecular composition and improved the functional characteristics of the HDL-particles subfractions: protecting LDL against oxidation (+21%) and increasing the HDL-particles ability to accept lipids (+23%). T increased cGMP and blood nitrite concentrations. The best HDL functional results were associated with the highest cGMP and blood nitrite concentrations and with the best FMD improvement results in the MS group. Conclusions: T early changes functional characteristics of HDL-particles, rather than HDL-C concentration, associated with eNOS biomarkers and with endothelial vascular function improvement in patients with MS, highlighting the early vascular benefits of exercising
