Figure. Healthy high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and HDL containing sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) promote nitric oxide (NO) production through activation of scavenger receptor B1 (SR-BI) and S1PR3 receptor
Dysfunctional HDL rich in malondialdehyde (MDA) and symmetrical dimethylarginine (SDMA) decreases NO production via activation of lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1) or Toll-like receptor-2 (TLR-2). eNOS indicates endothelial nitric oxide synthase; PI3K, phosphoinositide-3 kinase; and PKC-βII, protein kinase C βII.
