Differential regulation has been suggested for cellular cholesterol and phospholipid release mediated by apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I)/ABCA1. We investigated various factors involved in cholesterol mobilization related to this pathway. ApoA-I induced a rapid decrease of the cellular cholesterol compartment that is in equilibrium with the ACAT-accessible pool in cells that generate cholesterol-rich HDL. Pharmacological and genetic inactivation of ACAT enhanced the apoA-I-mediated cholesterol release through upregulation of ABCA1 and through cholesterol enrichment in the HDL generated. Pharmacological activation of protein kinase C (PKC) also decreased the ACAT-accessible cholesterol pool, not only in the cells that produce cholesterol-rich HDL by apoA-I (i.e., human fibroblast WI-38 cells) but also in the cells that generate cholesterol-poor HDL (mouse fibroblast L929 cells). In L929 cells, the PKC activation caused an increase in apoA-I-mediated cholesterol release without detectable change in phospholipid release and in ABCA1 expression. These results indicate that apoA-I mobilizes intracellular cholesterol for the ABCA1-mediated release from the compartment that is under the control of ACAT. The cholesterol mobilization process is presumably related to PKC activation by apoA-I.
