Overview
HDL is the most heterogeneous and the most complicated among the lipoproteins. HDL does not only represent one structure but rather refer to a dynamic collection of HDL subgroups which are sequentially produced. The different HDL subgroups differ in their physiochemical characteristics, lipid components, apolipoprotein types, electrophoretic mobility, density and function.[1][2]
Classification
High density lipoproteins (HDLs) may be classified based upon hydrated density, size, charge, or apolipoprotein composition given the non-uniform nature. With density gradient ultracentrifugation, HDL can be separated into HDL2, HDL3, and very-high-density lipoprotein (VHDL). Gradient gel electrophoresis may also be used to classify HDL into HDL2a, HDL2b, HDL3a, HDL3b, and HDL3c.[3] Yet another method of classifying HDL lipoprotein particles by size is nuclear magnetic resonance.[4] A more advanced technique by utilizing 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis has been used to resolve HDL particles in the plasma into lipid-poor pre-β-HDLs and α-HDL that contains mature spherical cholesteryl esters.[5]
Density
HDL has been separated by ultracentrifugation into two main classes of HDL.[6] Note that HDL 2 is larger and less dense whereas HDL 3 is smaller and less dense.
- HDL2 (large, density: 1.063-1.125 g/ml, size:8.8 to 13 nm)
- HDL3 (small, density: 1.125-1.21 g/ml, size:7.3 to 8.2 nm)[7]
Size
HDL has been separated on the basis of size by non denaturing polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis.[6] From larger to smaller:
- HDL2b
- HDL2a
- HDL3a
- HDL3b
- HDL3c[7]
Another classification is:
- Very large HDL particles (VL-HDL)
- Large HDL particles (L-HDL)
- Medium HDL particles (M-HDL)
- Small HDL particles (S-HDL)
- Very-small HDL particles (VS-HDL)
- Pre-β-1 HDL (role in macrophage cholesterol efflux)[1]
Apolipoprotein Content
- Lipoprotein A-I (HDL contains ApoA-I)
- Lipoprotein A-I/A-II (HDL contains ApoA-I and ApoA-II)
- Lipoprotein A-IV
- Lipoprotein E[6][7]
Surface Charge
HDL has been separated according to charge by agarose gel electrophoresis.[6]
- Pre-beta (positive)
- Pre-alpha
- Alpha (negative)
Note that pre-beta < pre-alpha < alpha.
