AIMS: To review the formation, catabolism, and the possible atherogenic properties of Lp-X.
DATA SYNTHESIS: The conversion of cholesterol to bile acids is regulated by several mechanisms including cholesterol 7 alpha hydroxylase, fibroblast growth factor 19, and farnesoid X receptors. During cholestasis these mechanisms are altered and there is an accumulation of bile acids and cholesterol in plasma. The hypercholesterolemia observed in cholestasis is due to the presence of an anomalous lipoprotein called lipoprotein-X (Lp-X). Lp-X is a lipoprotein rich in phospholipid and free cholesterol present in plasma of patients with cholestasis and, with some variations, in patients with lecithin-cholesterol-acyl-transferase deficiency (LCAT), and after lipid infusion. Lp-X is formed from a bile lipoprotein moving to the blood vessels where it incorporates small quantities of triglycerides, apo-C and esterified cholesterol and becomes a "mature" Lp-X. The activity of the phosphatidilcholine canalicular transporter Mdr2 P-glycoprotein (homologous to the human ABCB4) is essential for LpX appearance, since its suppression abolishes Lp-X formation. However, the concentration of Lp-X in plasma is determined also by the degree of the cholestasis, the residual liver function, and the LCAT deficiency. The Lp-X catabolism seems to be mediated by the reticuloendothelial system and possibly the kidney.
CONCLUSIONS: Lp-X might be considered a defense mechanism against the toxic effect of free cholesterol in cholestasis. The frequency of cardiovascular events in patients affected by primary biliary cholangitis, in whom the Lp-X is present in high concentration, are not increased. Further studies could now clarify the remaining open questions on the role of Lp-X in the dyslipidemia of cholestasis.
