Dalcetrapib (RO4607381/JTT-705), an agent that targets cholesteryl ester transfer protein, is in development for prevention of cardiovascular events. In vitro studies were performed to identify receptors that mediate an off-target effect of dalcetrapib observed in preclinical models: increased lipid uptake into the lamina propria of the small intestine and into mesenteric lymph node macrophages. Uptake of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol or dalcetrapib-treated chylomicrons was quantitated by triglyceride assay or fluorescent labeling in primary macrophages and the cell lines CHO, J774A.1 (mouse macrophages) and THP-1 (human macrophages). Quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and immunoblotting measured candidate receptor expression. Lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor (LOX-1) and scavenger receptor type Al (SR-Al) were excluded as candidate receptors based on lack of association between their expression and uptake of dalcetrapib-treated lipids. In J774A.1 cells, uptake of dalcetrapib-treated chylomicrons was increased by LPS and associated with expression of MAcrophage Receptor with COllagenous domain (MARCO). MARCO was expressed at very low levels in human macrophages and was not inducible by LPS. The MARCO receptor may account for the variable species susceptibility towards dalcetrapib-mediated chylomicron uptake by macrophages. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
