ABSTRACT
The present study aimed to investigate the associations between high-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients who have undergone coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). We performed a prospective cohort study and enrolled 151 patients who underwent CCTA and had a follow-up of up to 5 years. We measured cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC), caspase-3/7 activity and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) secretion as bioassays of HDL functionality. The patients were divided into MACE(-) (n = 138) and MACE(+) (n = 13) groups. While there was no significant difference in %CEC, caspase-3/7 activity or MCP-1 secretion between the MACE(-) and MACE(+) groups, total CEC and HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) in the MACE(+) group were significantly lower than those in the MACE(-) group. Total CEC was correlated with HDL-C. A receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the areas under the curves for total CEC and HDL-C. In conclusion, total CEC in addition to HDL-C, but not %CEC, was associated with the presence of MACE. On the other hand, HDL functionality with regard to anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptosis effects was not associated with MACE.
