Accumulation of cholesterol suppresses oxidative phosphorylation and altered responses to inflammatory stimuli of macrophages
Hypercholesterolemia induces intracellular accumulation of cholesterol in macrophages and other immune cells, causing immunological dysfunctions. On cellular levels, cholesterol enrichment might lead to mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming and change macrophage functions. Additionally, as cholester...

Hypercholesterolemia induces intracellular accumulation of cholesterol in macrophages and other immune cells, causing immunological dysfunctions. On cellular levels, cholesterol enrichment might lead to mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming and change macrophage functions. Additionally, as cholesterol is permeable to the plasma membrane and might integrate into the membranous organelles, such as endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria, cholesterol enrichment might change the functions or properties of these organelles, and ultimately alters the cellular functions. In this study, we investigate the mitochondrial alterations and intracellular oxidative stress induced by accumulation of cholesterol in the macrophages, and the possible immunological impacts caused by these alterations. Macrophage cells RAW264.7 were treated with cholesterol to induce intracellular accumulation of cholesterol, which further triggered the reduced production of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, as well as decrease of oxidative phosphorylation. Basal respiration rate, ATP production and non-mitochondrial oxygen consumption are all suppressed. In contrast, glycolysis remained unaltered in this cholesterol-enriched condition.
