Abstract:
:In a cell culture model of aging we have previously shown that there is an age-related decrease in the lipid dynamics of the proerythropoetic K562 cell membranes, as determined by the generalized polarization (GP) of the phase-sensitive lipid probe 2-dimethylamino-6-lauroylnaphthalene (Laurdan) (T. Parasassi, M. Di Stefano, G. Ravagnan, O. Sapora and E. Gratton. Exp. Cell Res., 202 (1992) 432-439). In the present study we also extended our observations to the lymphoblastoid HL60 cell line. In both K562 and HL60 cells during the four days after the last cell culture medium renewal the GP Laurdan value increased in a linear fashion indicating a time-dependent decrease in lipid dynamics. The initial membrane physical properties were almost completely restored upon renewal of the cell culture medium. We measured lipid composition, including individual and total phospholipids, free and esterified cholesterol at the first ('young') and at the fourth ('aged') day after culture medium renewal. We found that the decreased membrane lipid 'fluidity' at the fourth day of cell growth was associated with a 40% increase in cholesterol concentration in both cell lines. This increase in cholesterol concentration was reversible 24 h following the culture medium change. We conclude that in K562 and HL60 cells the 'age-related' decrease in membrane lipid dynamics is mediated by an 'age-related' increase in cell cholesterol content.
