Interaction Information:

Comment SORT1 encodes sortilin, a type I sorting receptor that has recently been implicated in LDL-cholesterol metabolism, VLDL secretion, PCSK9 secretion, and development of atherosclerotic lesions. Sortilin also seems to be involved in the development of atherosclerosis, by mechanisms not directly involving LDL-cholesterol, but possibly resulting from the attenuated secretion of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL6 and TNFalpha, which accompanies lack of sortilin in immune cells.

Comment Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is generally characterized as a polygenic disorder involving several different cell types including vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC), macrophages, T lymphocytes, endothelial cells, and hepatocytes, and it is commonly associated with risk factors such as lifestyle, e.g., smoking and physical inactivity, or potentially causative conditions like diabetes, high cholesterol levels, and hypertension. In each case, one of the most prominent risk factors is elevated levels of circulating low-density lipoprotein particles (LDL-C).

Comment At 1p13.3, five SNPs, namely, rs599839, rs646776, rs12740374, rs629301, and rs4970834, are positioned between genes, i.e., downstream of SORT1, and near PSRC1 and CELSR2. In several independent studies, these SNPs have shown association to interconnected cardiovascular phenotypes encompassing LDL-C, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, abdominal aortic aneurysm, coronary artery calcification, and coronary artery stenosis. In particular, the association between 1p13.3 and LDL-C has been replicated in various populations. The five SNPs are in high linkage disequilibrium and constitute a major and minor haplotype, with allele frequencies 0.76 and 0.24, respectively.

Comment The major allele for the SNP, rs646776, was associated with lower mRNA levels for all three genes (SORT1, PSRC1, CELSR2). The total number of samples was limited to 60 human livers resulting in only 2 samples for the homozygous minor allele. In other words, evidence suggested that the minor allele conferred increased expression of SORT1, PSRC1, CELSR2 mRNA, and that expression of mRNA was inversely correlated to the level of LDL-C.

Comment SORT1 encodes sortilin, a multiligand type 1 receptor that is expressed in many cell and tissue types including brain, heart, bone, fat, liver and neurons, hepatocytes, adipocytes, smooth muscle cells, blood lymphocytes, and macrophages. The extracellular part of sortilin is dominated by a small N-terminal propeptide followed by a large ligand binding 10-bladed beta-propeller. The propeptide prevents ligands from interacting with (pro)sortilin in the biosynthetic pathway until it is removed by cleavage in or after passage of the trans-Golgi network (TGN). The mature receptor binds a variety of ligands encompassing nerve growth factors and peptides, as well as cytokines and ligands associatedwith lipid metabolism, e.g., lipoprotein lipase, APOA-V, DLK1 and has, accordingly, been implicated in alternate tissue dependent functions. Sortilin is expressed on the cell surface in low abundance but predominates in Golgi and paranuclear compartments, and its short cytoplasmic domain contains functional motifs for endocytosis as well as Golgi-endosome sorting.

Comment SORT1 encodes sortilin, a multiligand type 1 receptor that is expressed in many cell and tissue types including brain, heart, bone, fat, liver and neurons, hepatocytes, adipocytes, smooth muscle cells, blood lymphocytes, and macrophages. The extracellular part of sortilin is dominated by a small N-terminal propeptide followed by a large ligand binding 10-bladed beta-propeller. The propeptide prevents ligands from interacting with (pro)sortilin in the biosynthetic pathway until it is removed by cleavage in or after passage of the trans-Golgi network (TGN). The mature receptor binds a variety of ligands encompassing nerve growth factors and peptides, as well as cytokines and ligands associatedwith lipid metabolism, e.g., lipoprotein lipase, APOA-V, DLK1 and has, accordingly, been implicated in alternate tissue dependent functions. Sortilin is expressed on the cell surface in low abundance but predominates in Golgi and paranuclear compartments, and its short cytoplasmic domain contains functional motifs for endocytosis as well as Golgi-endosome sorting.

Comment ER stress represses sortilin expression (mRNA and protein) and is associated with increased VLDL secretion. ER stress was induced by obesity (ob/ob mice), high-fat diet (in C57BL6/j and Li-Tsc1KO), or by administration of tunicamycin. All resulted in reduction in sortilin expression, and concomitantly increased VLDL secretion (not shown in tunicamycin-treated animals, though). The effect of obesity and high-fat diet on sortilin was most convincing.

Comment Findings in separate strains of knockout mice strongly suggest that sortilin deficiency is "protective" and lowers the level of circulating LDL-C and cholesterol. In humans, however, low levels of sortilin (in carriers of the major haplotype/allele) are paralleled by an increased risk of developing hyperlipidemia and disease. This apparent paradox is further complicated by the conflicting results obtained by overexpression of sortilin in mice - results that are difficult to evaluate and compare due to differences in experimental approach (e.g., overexpression in the liver or whole body, and use of different types of genetically modified animals).
