To elucidate the mechanisms, we examined the effects of electronegative LDL, circulating in chronic smokers, on EPC differentiation. Using ionex-change chromatography, we purified smoker LDL into five subfractions, L1-L5. In matched, nonsmoking healthy subjects, L5, the most electronegative subfraction, was either absent or scanty. Sustained L5 treatment inhibited CD31 and KDR expression and EPC differentiation, whereas L1-L4 had no effect. L5 also inhibited telomerase activity to accelerate EPC senescence in correlation with reduced Akt phosphorylation. Transfection of day 3 EPCs with dominant negative Akt constructs inhibited CD31 and KDR expression, stalled EPC differentiation, and promoted early senescence. In contrast, transfection with constitutively active Akt rendered the EPCs resistant to L5, allowing normal maturation. L5 upregulated the lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1), and pretreatment of EPCs with TS20, a LOX-1-neutralizing antibody, blocked internalization of L5 by EPCs and prevented L5-mediated inhibition of EPC differentiation. Mixing L5 with L1 to physiological L5/L1 ratios did not attenuate L5's effects. These findings suggest that cigarette smoking is associated with the formation of L5, which inhibits EPC differentiation by impairing Akt phosphorylation via the LOX-1 receptor.
