In a previous study we demonstrated that isocaloric substitution of fish oil (FO) for lard in the diet of cynomolgus monkeys resulted in low density lipoproteins (LDL) that were poorer competitors for binding of a standard 125I-labeled LDL and led to less cholesteryl ester accumulation in skin fibroblasts (Linga, V., et al. 1993. J. Lipid Res. 34: 769-778). The decreased binding and cholesteryl ester accumulation by FO LDL appeared related to the LDL apolipoprotein E (apoE) content. We hypothesized that FO LDL had reduced binding to skin fibroblasts due to a decrease in receptor active apoE. To test this hypothesis and determine the relative contribution of apoE versus apolipoprotein B (apoB) in binding of LDL to skin fibroblasts, LDL from cynomolgus monkeys fed lard or FO-containing diets were isolated, characterized, radioiodinated, and tested for binding in the absence or presence of a 10-fold molar excess of monoclonal antibody to the receptor binding domain of apoE (1D7) or apoB-100 (MB47). FO LDL were smaller, contained less apoE (E/B molar ratio = 0.48 +/- 0.03 vs. 1.85 +/- 0.22; P < 0.001), and had a weaker binding affinity (Kd = 11.3 +/- 1.6 vs. 3.8 +/- 0.80 micrograms/ml; P < 0.01) compared to the lard counterparts. Furthermore, the apoE/B molar ratio of LDL appeared inversely related to the Kd for binding to skin fibroblasts. Incubation of LDL with skin fibroblasts in the presence of a 10-fold molar excess of monoclonal antibody directed at the receptor binding domain of apoB-100 (MB47) eliminated 96 +/- 3% of binding of FO LDL, but eliminated only 43 +/- 18% of binding for lard LDL. Incubation with a 10-fold molar excess of monoclonal antibody to the receptor-binding domain of apoE (1D7) eliminated only 23 +/- 6% of FO LDL binding to fibroblasts relative to a no-antibody control, but for lard LDL 44 +/- 11% of binding to fibroblasts was eliminated. Both antibodies together blocked all binding of LDL from both diet groups.
