Abstract: | Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is classified into simple steatosis (SS) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) according to histological findings from liver biopsies. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), the main component of phospholipids in serum lipoproteins, is easily oxidized to phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide (PC-OOH). Although a lipid composition in the low-density lipoproteins (LDL) from patients with NASH could be abnormal, it remains unclear. Here, to better understand the characteristics of lipids in the LDL from NASH and SS, we compared the composition of PC and PC-OOH species in LDL particles (LDL-PC, LDL-PCOOH) from these patients, then clarified the association between these lipids and NASH severity. Methods: The serum samples from patients with NASH (female, n = 9) and SS (female, n = 4; male, n = 2) were used for isolation of LDL. Total lipids were extracted from isolated LDL, and the species of PC and PC-OOH were measured using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. Results: The sum of LDL-PC and the sum of LDL-PCOOH were significantly higher in NASH than in SS. Several LDL-PC (PC 32:0, 32:1, 32:2, 34:3, 36:2, sum of PC with saturated fatty acyl chains and sum of LDL-PC with polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains) and several LDL-PCOOH (34:2, 36:2, 36:3 and total) were increased significantly with increasing fibrosis score. In particular, a series of LDL-PCOOH were more reflective of the severity of fibrosis score. Conclusions: LDL-PC and LDL-PCOOH species were strongly correlated with the fibrosis score in NASH, which suggests that abnormal LDL is involved in the development of liver fibrosis. |
