The effects of lysine-modified atherogenic plasma lipoproteins, known to be constituents of human atherosclerotic plaques, were studied on platelet function in vitro. LDL and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] modified with secondary breakdown products of lipid peroxidation (4-hydroxy-2,3-trans-nonenal [HNE] 0.1 to 10 mmol/L or malondialdehyde [MDA] 1 to 50 mmol/L) induced neither spontaneous platelet aggregation nor secretion of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) from platelet aminestorage granules. Incubation of platelets with HNE- or MDA-modified LDL or Lp(a) (up to 1200 micrograms protein/mL) prior to thrombin (0.2 U/mL)- or collagen (2 micrograms/mL)-induced aggregation did not enhance platelet aggregability or formation of eicosanoids, ie, thromboxane A2 or prostaglandins E2 and F2 alpha. In contrast to native lipoproteins, HNE- or MDA-modified LDL and Lp(a) (approximately 20% to 30% of total apolipoprotein lysine residues modified) exerted a pronounced dose-dependent inhibition of 5-HT release from activated platelets in the following order: HNE LDL (50%) &gt; HNE Lp(a) (40%) &gt; MDA LDL (20%) &gt; MDA Lp(a) (5%). Preincubation of human blood platelets with acetylated LDL or Lp(a) (approximately 60% to 70% of total lysine residues modified) prior to aggregation impaired serotonin secretion by 50% compared with native LDL or Lp(a). These findings suggest that the interaction of platelets with aldehyde-modified atherogenic plasma lipoproteins should not necessarily be considered as proatherogenic with respect to the effects observed in our in vitro studies.
