    Abstract:
    This study was designed to explore the inductive effect of glycated high-density lipoprotein (gly-HDL) on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP)-mediated macrophage apoptosis and its relationship with autophagy. Our results showed that gly-HDL caused macrophage apoptosis with concomitant activation of ER stress pathway, including nuclear translocation of activating transcription factor 6, phosphorylation of protein kinase-like ER kinase (PERK) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α, and CHOP up-regulation, which were inhibited by 4-phenylbutyric acid (PBA, an ER stress inhibitor) and the gene silencing of PERK and CHOP. Similar data were obtained from macrophages treated by HDL isolated from diabetic patients. Gly-HDL induced macrophage autophagy as assessed by up-regulation of beclin-1, autophagy-related gene 5 and microtubule-associated protein one light chain 3-II, which were depressed by PBA and PERK siRNA. Gly-HDL-induced apoptosis, PERK phosphorylation and CHOP up-regulation were suppressed by rapamycin (an autophagy inducer), whereas aggravated by 3-methyladenine (an autophagy inhibitor) and beclin-1 siRNA. Administration of diabetic apoE-/- mice with rapamycin attenuated MOMA-2 and CHOP up-regulation and apoptosis in atherosclerotic lesions. These data indicate that gly-HDL may induce macrophage apoptosis through activating ER stress-CHOP pathway and ER stress mediates gly-HDL-induced autophagy, which in turn protects macrophages against apoptosis by alleviating CHOP pathway.
