H

igh-density lipoprotein (HDL) plays an important role in preventing atherosclerosis. The antioxidant effect of HDL is

mostly associated with paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity. Increasing PON1 activity using nutrients might improve HDL

function and quality and thus, decrease atherosclerotic risk. We previously isolated and identified a novel active compound,

Lyso-DGTS (C20:5, 0) from

Nannochloropsis

sp. ethanol extract. In the present study, its effect on PON1 activities was

examined and the mechanism by which the compound affects PON1 activity was explored. Lyso-DGTS elevated recombinant

PON1 (rePON1) lactonase and esterase activities in a dose- and time-responsive manner, and further stabilized and preserved

rePON1 lactonase activity. Incubation of lyso-DGTS with human serum for 4 h at 37˚C also increased PON1 lactonase activity

in a dose-responsive manner. Using tryptophan-fluorescence-quenching assay, lyso-DGTS was found to interact with rePON1

spontaneously with negative free energy G=-22.87 KJ/mol at 25˚C). Thermodynamic parameters and molecular modeling

calculations showed that the main interaction of lyso-DGTS with the enzyme is through a hydrogen bond with supporting

van der Waals interactions. Furthermore, lyso-DGTS significantly increased rePON1 influx into macrophages and prevented

lipid accumulation in macrophages stimulated with oxidized low-density lipid dose-dependently.

In-vivo

supplementation

of lyso-DGTS to the circulation of mice fed a high-fat diet via osmotic mini-pumps implanted subcutaneously significantly

increased serum PON1 lactonase activity and decreased serum glucose concentrations to the level of mice fed a normal diet.

Our findings suggest a beneficial effect of lyso-DGTS on increasing PON1 activity and thus, improving HDL quality and

atherosclerotic risk factors.
