5-Hydroxy-2-aminovaleric acid (HAVA) has been suggested to be a specific marker of oxidation of apolipoprotein (apo) B-100 proline (Pro) and arginine (Arg) side-chain residues in low density lipoprotein (LDL) in vitro. Here we describe the application of sensitive mass spectrometric techniques to the characterization of Pro/Arg-modified apoB-100 in LDL(1) (S(f) 7 to 12) and LDL(2) (S(f) 0 to 7) in vivo. We studied 7 subjects with familial defective apoB-100 (FDB) and 8 normolipidemic controls. In FDB subjects, the presence of a mutant apoB-100 (FDB(3500Q)) in LDL markedly reduced its affinity for the LDL receptor, leading to increased residence times (RTs) of LDL(1) (65+/-21 versus 32+/-12 hours, P&lt;0.005) and LDL(2) (230+/-40 versus 53+/-7 hours, P:&lt;0.001) when compared with controls, as determined by stable-isotope turnover studies. LDL(1) HAVA content was not different between the groups (FDB, 0.004+/-0. 001 mol/mol apoB-100 versus controls, 0.003+/-0.001 mol/mol apoB-100, P=0.200). LDL(2) HAVA content was higher in FDB subjects (0. 374+/-0.088 versus 0.013+/-0.002 mol/mol apoB-100, P&lt;0.001). In both groups, LDL(2) HAVA was positively associated with LDL(2) RT (FDB, r=0.893, P:=0.003; controls, r=0.976, P=0.000) and negatively correlated with LDL(2) alpha-tocopherol content (FDB, r=-0.929, P=0. 003; controls, r=-0.903, P=0.002). No significant correlations could be found between LDL(1) HAVA, LDL(1) RT, and alpha-tocopherol, respectively. The low LDL(1) HAVA content observed in both FDB and control groups was thought to be due to the relatively lower RT as well as the higher alpha-tocopherol content of these lipoproteins. In contrast, LDL(2) seemed to be strongly prone to direct oxidation of apoB-100 in vivo. The longer these particles linger in the circulation, the more apoB-100 Pro/Arg residues become modified.
