Aim: Recent studies reported that low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity rather than low HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) is strongly associated with the increased risk for coronary artery disease. It remains unclear whether exercised-based cardiac rehabilitation (CR) can increase HDL cholesterol efflux capacity.Method: This study is a retrospective analysis of stored serum from patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who participated in outpatient CR program following successful percutaneous coronary intervention. We employed a cell-based cholesterol efflux system including the incubation of 3H-cholesterol labeled macrophages with apolipoprotein B-depleted serum at the onset or early phase of ACS and at 6-month follow-up periods in 57 male and 11 female patients with ACS. Cardiopulmonary exercise tests were performed at the beginning and end of CR program.Result: Fifty-seven patients completed the CR program. Compared with patients who dropped out from CR program (non-CR group), CR participants showed marked amelioration in serum lipid levels, increased efflux capacity, and improved exercise capacity. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient analysis revealed that the percent increases of efflux capacity were significantly associated with the percent increases in HDL-C (ρ=0.598, p<0.0001) and apolipoprotein A1 (ρ=0.508, p<0.0001), whereas no association between increases in efflux capacity and increases in cardiopulmonary fitness was observed. Increases in cholesterol efflux capacity were not seen in patients who continued smoking and those who did not achieve all risk factor targets and higher exercise tolerance.Conclusion: CR can markedly increase both HDL-C and HDL cholesterol efflux capacity. These results suggest that CR is a very useful therapy for reverse cholesterol transport and secondary prevention.

Aim: The Japan Diet (JD) recommended by the Japan Atherosclerosis Society based on the traditional Japanese diet is presumably favorable for preventing atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, but few high-quality controlled clinical trials have examined its benefits as compared with other diets. We studied effects of nutrition education for JD intake as compared with partial JD (PJD) intake on serum lipids and inflammatory parameters in subjects with dyslipidemia. Methods: A randomized parallel controlled clinical trial was conducted on outpatients with dyslipidemia. Participants were randomly divided into the JD or the PJD group. Face-to-face nutrition education based on each diet at baseline and at 3 months, as well as monthly counseling by mail during the intervening 3-month period, were provided and participants practiced up to 6 months. Both groups were advised to reduce consumptions of animal fat/ fatty meat/poultry, confections, and alcoholic drinks. Additionally, the JD group participants were recommended to consume more fish, soybean products especially natto, vegetables, and seaweed/mushrooms/konjak, and to switch from refined to unrefined cereals or barley. Results: Mean LDL-cholesterol was 125 +/- 29 mg/dL at baseline, and the JD group ( n=49) showed a greater mean LDL-cholesterol decrease than the PJD group (n=49) [- 8 mg/dL in JD vs 1 mg/dL in PJD, difference, -9 mg/dL (95%CI, -17 to 0) p=0.043)], and triglyceride (p=0.023) and insulin (p=0.033) reductions were larger in the JD group than in the PJD group at 6 months. Conclusion: Nutrition education for JD intake was suggested to improve serum lipid and metabolic parameters in patients with dyslipidemia.

Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is a mechanism critical to the anti-atherogenic property of HDL. Although citrulline contributes to the amelioration of atherosclerosis via endothelial nitric oxide production, it remains unclear whether it affects RCT. This study was undertaken to clarify the effects of citrulline on expressions of specific transporters such as ATP binding cassette transporters (ABC)A1 and ABCG1, and the cholesterol efflux from macrophages to apolipoprotein (apo) A-I or HDL in vitro and ex vivo. Citrulline increased ABCA1 and ABCG1 mRNA and protein levels in THP-1 macrophages, translating into enhanced apoA-I- and HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux. In the human crossover study, 8 healthy male volunteers (age 30–49 years) consumed either 3.2 g/day citrulline or placebo for 1 week. Citrulline consumption brought about significant increases in plasma levels of citrulline and arginine. Supporting the in vitro data, monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) differentiated under autologous post-citrulline sera demonstrated enhancement of both apoA-I- and HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux through increased ABCA1 and ABCG1 expressions, compared to MDM differentiated under pre-citrulline sera. However, the placebo did not modulate these parameters. Therefore, in addition to improving endothelium function, citrulline might have an anti-atherogenic property by increasing RCT of HDL.
