Role of biliary phosphatidylcholine in the absorption and transport of dietary triolein in the rat.

This study was undertaken to determine the role of luminal phosphatidylcholine in the intestinal absorption and transport of glycerol trioleate in the rat. Rats with bile and thoracic duct lymph fistulas were infused with a bile salt-stabilized emulsion of glycerol trioleate only or with either dioleoyl or dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine added. Uptake of infused lipid was greater than 95% in all groups. The presence of supplemental phosphatidylcholine in the infusate greatly enhanced the lymphatic triglyceride and phosphatidylcholine outputs in the bile-diverted rats as compared with rats without phosphatidylcholine supplementation. There was no difference in lipid outputs between the dioleoyl or dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine-supplemented rats. The fatty acid pattern of the lymph phosphatidylcholine of the two groups of phosphatidylcholine-supplemented rats reflected that of the added phosphatidylcholine. In the absence of luminal phosphatidylcholine there was increased accumulation of mucosal triglyceride and evidence suggesting increased portal transport of absorbed fatty acid. Therefore, this study demonstrated that the presence of luminal phosphatidylcholine is important for the normal lymphatic transport of the absorbed digestion products of triglyceride, the major dietary fat.

Studies on the inhibition of pancreatic and carboxylester lipases by protamine.

The basic protein protamine strongly inhibited hydrolysis of triolein emulsified with soybean phosphatidylcholine (PC) by pancreatic and carboxylester lipases; 10 micrograms/ml protamine, about 1000 times lower than the concentration of bovine serum albumin for the same effect, inhibited triolein hydrolysis completely. This inhibition was not affected by the incubation pH or bile salt concentration. Two other basic proteins, histone and purothionin, also inhibited hydrolysis of triolein emulsified with soybean PC, but they did not inhibit triolein hydrolysis by gastric lipase. When gum arabic was used as an emulsifier instead of soybean PC, these basic proteins did not affect triolein hydrolysis by pancreatic or carboxylester lipases. The effects of protamine on triolein hydrolysis by pancreatic and carboxylester lipases was studied using various phospholipids as emulsifiers. Protamine (10 micrograms/ml) did not inhibit hydrolysis of triolein emulsified with dicaproyl PC (DCPC), phosphatidic acid (PA), or phosphatidylserine (PS) by pancreatic and carboxylester lipases. Conversely, protamine at high concentrations slightly stimulated hydrolysis of triolein emulsified with DCPC or PA. Hydrolysis of triolein-phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) emulsion was inhibited slightly by protamine. The profiles of protamine inhibition of triolein-phosphatidyl-N,N-dimethyl ethanolamine (PDME) and triolein-phosphatidyl-N-monomethyl ethanolamine (PMME) emulsions were intermediate between those of PC and PE emulsions. These results suggest that the phospholipid species, especially choline moieties and fatty acid chain length, affect the lipase inhibitory activity of protamine profoundly. In vivo, oral administration of protamine to rats reduced and delayed the peak plasma triacylglycerol concentration, but neither bovine serum albumin nor an amino acid mixture with an amino acid composition identical to protamine affected plasma triacylglycerol levels.

The effect of monostearoylglycerol on the metabolism of chylomicron-like lipid emulsions injected intravenously in rats.

In rats, remnant particles derived from chylomicron-like emulsions containing 1,3-dioleoyl-2-stearoylglycerol (OSO) are removed from plasma more slowly than remnants derived from triolein emulsions. The effect associated with a saturated acyl chain at the glycerol 2-position could be reproduced by incorporating 2-stearoylglycerol (MS) in a triolein emulsion. When MS solubilized with rat albumin or in plasma was injected before the injection of a triolein emulsion, clearance of the triolein emulsion was unchanged. The metabolic fate of MS, monitored with 14C-labelled MS, was similar whether incorporated in triacylglycerol emulsion or injected independently. More than 95% of MS had disappeared from the circulation by 5 min after the injection and the radioactivity was found in liver, spleen, muscle and adipose tissue. Some MS label appeared in plasma triacylglycerol. Remnants made in vitro by incubating triolein or OSO emulsions with post-heparin plasma showed no differences in their disappearance from plasma. With OSO emulsion, the in vitro remnants were found to contain more MS than remnants made in vivo in hepatectomized rats. Simultaneous injections of mixtures containing OSO and triolein emulsions, or triolein emulsions with and without MS, each labelled with either [3H]cholesteryl oleate or [14C]cholesteryl oleate showed consistently slower remnant removal and decreased liver uptake of the emulsions containing OSO or MS. Affinity columns and immunodiffusion all indicated that there was no difference in the amounts of apolipoprotein E associated with OSO or triolein particles. The protein spectra of in vivo remnants derived from OSO and triolein emulsion were also similar when examined by SDS-PAGE and isoelectric focusing gels. Our results show that the effects due to OSO or MS are mediated by the presence of MS in the emulsion particle surface, while indirect effects expressed in plasma or liver are excluded. The precise mechanism of the effect remains to be established, but it does not correlate with measurable changes in the spectra of apolipoproteins associated with the emulsion remnants.

Cellular uptake and catabolism of high-density-lipoprotein triacylglycerols in human cultured fibroblasts: degradation block in neutral lipid storage disease.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL)-[3H]triolein (i.e. [3H]triolein incorporated into reconstituted HDL) was taken up by cultured fibroblasts through an apparently saturable process, competitively inhibited by non-labelled HDL and independent of the LDL receptor. Using 125I-HDL and HDL-[3H]triolein, binding experiments (at 0 degrees C) followed by a short-time 'chase' at 37 degrees C showed that 125I radioactivity was rapidly released in the culture medium (as trichloroacetic acid-precipitable material), whereas 3H radioactivity remained associated with the cell. The cell-associated HDL-[3H]triolein was rapidly degraded in normal fibroblasts, and the liberated [3H]oleic acid was incorporated into newly biosynthesized phospholipids. In Wolman-disease fibroblasts HDL-[3H]triolein was degraded at a normal rate, and thus independently of the lysosomal compartment. In contrast, the degradation of HDL-[3H]triolein was blocked in fibroblasts from Neutral Lipid Storage Disease (NLSD), similarly to that of endogenously biosynthesized triacylglycerols [Radom, Salvayre, Nègre, Maret and Douste-Blazy (1987) Eur. J. Biochem. 164, 703-708]. Trypsin-treated HDL-[3H]triolein was also taken up by cells and degraded quite similarly to HDL-[3H]triolein. In conclusion, all these data taken together suggest that HDL-[3H]triolein is: (i) associated with the cell through a process independent of intact apolipoprotein (apo) As, thus probably independent of an apoA-receptor-mediated uptake; (ii) internalized by cells, whereas 125I-apoAs are released in the culture medium; (iii) directed to the same non-lysosomal catabolic pool (blocked in NLSD) as for endogenously biosynthesized triacylglycerols.

Post-heparin plasma hepatic triacylglycerol lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of tributyrin. Effect of lipid interface.

The mechanism of action of hepatic triacylglycerol lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) was examined by comparing the hydrolysis of a water-soluble substrate, tributyrin, with that of triolein by hepatic triacylglycerol lipase purified from human post-heparin plasma. The hydrolyzing activities toward tributyrin and triolein were coeluted from heparin-Sepharose at an NaCl concentration of 0.7 M. The maximal velocity of hepatic triacylglycerol lipase (Vmax) for tributyrin was 17.9 mumol/mg protein per h and the Michaelis constant (Km) value was 0.12 mM, whereas the Vmax for triolein was 76 mumol/mg per h and the Km value was 2.5 mM. The hydrolyses of tributyrin and triolein by hepatic triacylglycerol lipase were inhibited to similar extends by procainamide, NaF, Zn2+, Cu2+, Mn2+, SDS and sodium deoxycholate. Triolein hydrolysis was inhibited by the addition of tributyrin. Triolein hydrolysis was also inhibited by the addition of dipalmitoylphosphaidylcholine vesicles. In contrast, the additions of triolein emulsified with Triton X-100 and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine vesicles enhanced the rate of tributyrin hydrolysis by hepatic triacylglycerol lipase. In the presence of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, the Vmax and Km values of hepatic triacylglycerol lipase for tributyrin were 41 mumol/mg protein per h and 0.12 mM, respectively, indicating that the enhancement of hepatic triacylglycerol lipase activity for tributyrin by dipalmitoylphosphatidycholine vesicles was mainly due to increase in the Vmax. The enhancement of hepatic triacylglycerol lipase activity for tributyrin by phospholipid was not correlated with the amount of tributyrin associated with the phospholipid vesicles. On Bio-Gel A5m column chromatography, glycerol tri[1-14C]butyrate was not coeluted with triolein emulsion, and hepatic triacylglycerol lipase activity was associated with triolein emulsion even in the presence of 2 mM tributyrin. These results suggest that hepatic triacylglycerol lipase has a catalytic site for esterase activity and a separate site for lipid interface recognition, and that on binding to a lipid interface the conformation of the enzyme changes, resulting in enhancement of the esterase activity.

Influence of the structure of the lipid-water interface on the activity of hepatic lipase.

Factors affecting the hydrolytic activity of purified rat hepatic lipase have been examined in mixed-monolayer systems. When nonsubstrate lipids [either egg sphingomyelin or beta-O-hexadecyl-gamma-O-(1-ocadec-9-enyl)-DL-phosphatidylcholine (OPPC-ether)] were used as inert matrices, hydrolytic activity for both triolein and dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine was shown to decrease with increasing surface pressure (pi); negligible activity occurred at pi greater than or equal to 30 mN/m. Examination of the effect of introduction of cholesterol into either matrix containing 2 mol % triolein indicated that the mean molecular area decreased with increasing cholesterol and that, at pi = 24 mN/m, triolein was fully miscible in the sphingomyelin matrix at cholesterol concentrations less than or equal to 32.5 mol % and in the OPPC-ether matrix at cholesterol concentrations less than or equal to 49 mol %. Above these critical concentrations of cholesterol, the phase diagrams indicate transitions that suggest that triolein is forced out of the monolayer. Introduction of increasing amounts of cholesterol into either inert matrix increased the rate of hydrolysis of triolein by hepatic lipase, although by different degrees. There are at least two factors contributing to these effects: (1) condensation of the monolayer by cholesterol, thus increasing the total surface concentration of triolein at pi = 24 mN/m in the constant area surface balance, and (2) some change in triolein conformation and/or accessibility since at identical surface concentrations of triolein (8.7 +/- 0.1 pmol/cm2) and pi (24 mN/m) the rate of hydrolysis of triolein by hepatic lipase is 1.5-fold higher in the OPPC-ether matrix than in the egg sphingomyelin matrix.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Mode of transport of fatty acid to endothelial cells influences intracellular fatty acid metabolism.

Fatty acids are transported to cells from a variety of different moieties in the plasma. In this study, using oleate and human umbilical vein endothelial cells, we asked whether the vehicle that delivers fatty acid to cells has an influence on its metabolism upon its incorporation into the cell. For oleate vehicles, we compared free oleate bound to albumin with oleate in low density lipoprotein (LDL) which was delipidated and reconstituted with either radiolabeled triolein or cholesteryl oleate. Using approximately physiologic concentrations of LDL and free oleate, we demonstrated by three lines of evidence unique patterns of cellular oleate metabolism for oleate delivered as triolein within LDL, for oleate delivered as cholesteryl oleate within LDL, and for oleate delivered as free oleate bound to albumin. In fact, the difference was most marked between cholesteryl oleate and triolein, even though the oleate in cholesteryl oleate and triolein was delivered in identically reconstituted LDL particles, which were presumably incorporated into the cells and degraded in lysosomes in a similar fashion. First, we demonstrated that oleate delivered as free oleate or as triolein in reconstituted LDL was desaturated and elongated to fatty acid metabolites, but cholesteryl oleate in reconstituted LDL was not similarly metabolized. The elongated and desaturated metabolites of oleate were preferentially esterified in cellular triglyceride when oleate was delivered as free oleate, but they were preferentially esterified in phospholipids when oleate was delivered as triolein in LDL. Second, we observed that there was a difference in the distribution of oleate among phospholipids when oleate was delivered as cholesteryl oleate in reconstituted LDL versus triolein in reconstituted LDL. When the oleate was delivered as triolein in reconstituted LDL, there was greater esterification in diacyl phosphatidylethanolamine, in phosphatidylserine, and in phosphatidylinositol. When oleate was delivered as cholesteryl oleate in reconstituted LDL, there was greater esterification in diacyl phosphatidylcholine. Third, there was a marked preference for oleate delivered from triolein in LDL over cholesteryl oleate in LDL for esterification into the sn-1 position of plasmalogens as a vinyl ether-linked fatty acid. These data indicate that mode of transport of fatty acid to cells influences fatty acid metabolism upon its incorporation into the cell, even when the fatty acid is delivered from the core of the same lipoprotein.

Effects of phospholipids on hydrolysis of trioleoylglycerol by human serum carboxylesterase.

Human serum carboxylesterase (EC 3.1.1.1), purified by affinity chromatography on trimethylammonium anilinium-Sepharose, hydrolyzed the short-chain fatty acid ester tributyrin (40 mumol/mg protein per h), but scarcely hydrolyzed the long-chain fatty acid ester triolein (less than 0.2 mumol/mg protein per h). Phospholipids enhanced triolein hydrolysis by carboxylesterase to various extents, cardiolipin causing the most enhancement (2.5 mumol/mg protein per h). Phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol also enhanced carboxylesterase-catalyzed hydrolysis of triolein (450-980 nmol/mg protein per h). The optimal pH for tributyrin hydrolysis was pH 8.0, but the pH range for triolein hydrolysis was broad, being pH 4.5-7.5. The rates of hydrolyses of monoolein, diolein and triolein by carboxylesterase in the absence and presence of 100 micrograms/ml cardiolipin were 3.9, 0.5 and 0.2 mumol/mg esterase per h and 2.0, 0.6 and 4.0 mumol/mg protein per h, respectively. Thus, on addition of cardiolipin, triolein hydrolysis was enhanced, but tributyrin hydrolysis was reciprocally decreased. Triton X-100 (0.1%) and NaCl (1.0 M) decreased triolein hydrolysis, but did not decrease tributyrin hydrolysis. Mercaptoethanol decreased triolein hydrolysis, but not tributyrin hydrolysis. These results suggest that cardiolipin modifies the interaction of carboxylesterase with substrates in such a way as to facilitate its interaction with a hydrophobic substrate, and that disulfide bonding might be involved in the substrate recognition site.
