In normal human skin fibroblasts (HSFs), fluorescent glycosphingolipid analogues are endocytosed and sorted into two pools, one that is recycled to the plasma membrane and one that is transported to the Golgi complex. Here, we investigated glycosphingolipid recycling in Niemann-Pick type A and C lipid storage disease fibroblasts (NPFs). Cells were incubated with a fluorescent analogue of lactosylceramide (LacCer) at 16°C to label early endosomes (EEs), shifted to 37°C, and lipid recycling was quantified. Using dominant negative rabs, we showed that, in normal HSFs, LacCer recycling was rapid (t1/2 ~8 min) and mainly rab4-dependent. In NPFs, LacCer recycling was delayed (t1/2 ~30–40 min), and rab4-dependent recycling was absent, whereas rab11-dependent recycling predominated. Transferrin recycling via the rab4 pathway was similarly perturbed in NPFs. Compared with normal HSFs, EEs in NPFs showed high cholesterol levels and an altered organization of rab4. In vitro extraction of rab4 (but not rab11) with GDP dissociation inhibitor was severely attenuated in NPF endosomal fractions. This impairment was reversed with cholesterol depletion of isolated endosomes or with high-salt treatment of endosomes. These data suggest that abnormal membrane recycling in NPFs results from specific inhibition of rab4 function by excess cholesterol in EEs.
