Mounting evidence suggests that obesity and the metabolic syndrome have significant but often divergent effects on the innate immune system. These effects have been best established in monocytes and macrophages, particularly as a consequence of the hypercholesterolemic state. We have recently described defects in neutrophil function in the setting of both obesity and hypercholesterolemia, and hypothesized that exposure to elevated levels of lipoproteins, particularly LDL its oxidized forms, contributed to these defects. As a model of chronic cholesterol exposure, we examined functional responses of bone marrow neutrophils isolated from non-obese mice with diet-induced hypercholesterolemia compared to normal cholesterol controls. Chemotaxis, calcium flux, CD11b display, and F-actin polymerization were assayed in response to several chemoattractants, while neutrophil cytokine transcriptional response was determined to LPS. Following this, the acute effects of isolated LDL and its oxidized forms on normal neutrophils were assayed using the same functional assays. We found that neutrophils from non-obese hypercholesterolemic mice had blunted chemotaxis, altered calcium flux, and normal to augmented CD11b display with prolonged actin polymerization in response to stimuli. In response to acute exposure to lipoproteins, neutrophils showed chemotaxis to LDL which increased with the degree of LDL oxidation. Paradoxically, LDL oxidation yielded the opposite effect on LDL-induced CD11b display and actin polymerization, and both native and oxidized LDL were found to induce neutrophil transcription of the monocyte chemoattractant MCP-1. Together these findings suggest that chronic hypercholesterolemia impairs neutrophil functional responses, and these defects may be in part due to protracted signaling responses to LDL and its oxidized forms.
