This paper describes the origins and determinants of High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) populations and their subpopulations. Our survey of compositional properties of small HDL particles indicates considerable variation in core lipid content reflecting in large part the origins of such particles. Whether small HDL particles of different core content and apolipoprotein composition differ in their metabolic properties and function in reverse cholesterol transport remains to be established. Our studies demonstrate that lipolysis-derived products can facilitate formation in vitro of small Apolipoprotein (AI) particles with properties approximating those of plasma pre-{beta} HDL. Of particular interest is our observation that small AI particles are an exclusive reassembly product in mixtures containing POPE and FFA. This observation may be relevant to the physiologic origins of PE in lipoprotein structure and its role in metabolism and secretion of nascent HDL. Lastly our observations on the reactivity of small AI particles, containing FFA, with LCAT and LDL suggest further linkages between triglyceride and HDL metabolism. 19 refs., 4 figs., 5 tabs.
