This study determines the effects of 6-O-α-maltosyl-β cyclodextrin (Mal-βCD) on lipid levels and synthesis in Npc1-deficient (Npc1-KO cells) and vehicle CHO cells. Compared to vehicle cells, Npc1-KO cells exhibited high level of UEC, and low levels of esterified cholesterols (ECs) and long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs). The difference in lipid levels between Npc1-KO and CHO cells was largely ameliorated by Mal-βCD administration. Moreover, the effects of Mal-βCD were reproduced in the lysosomes prepared from Npc1-KO cells. Stable isotope tracer analysis with extracellular addition of D4-deuterated palmitic acid (D4-PA) to Npc1-KO cells increased the synthesis of D4-deuterated LCFAs (D4-LCFAs) and D4-deuterated ECs (D4-ECs) in a Mal-βCD-dependent manner. Simultaneous addition of D6-deuterated UEC (D6-UEC) and D4-PA promoted the Mal-βCD-dependent synthesis of D6-/D4-ECs, consisting of D6-UEC and D4-PA, D4-deuterated stearic acid, or D4-deuterated myristic acid, in Npc1-KO cells. These results suggest that Mal-βCD helps to maintain normal lipid metabolism by restoring balance among UEC, ECs, and LCFAs through acting on behalf of NPC1 in Npc1-KO cells and may therefore be useful in designing effective therapies for NPC. 抄録:英語フィールド
