Effect of diabetes on acid and neutral triacylglycerol lipase and on lipoprotein lipase activities in isolated myocardial cells from rat heart.
A neutral triacylglycerol lipase activity that is separate and distinct from lipoprotein lipase (LPL) could be measured in homogenates of myocardial cells if protamine sulphate and high concentrations of albumin were included in the assay. This neutral lipase was predominantly particulate, with the highest relative specific activity in microsomal subcellular fractions. The induction of diabetes by the administration of streptozotocin to rats resulted in a decrease in LPL activity in myocyte homogenates and in particulate subcellular fractions, but the percentage of cellular LPL activity that was released during incubation of myocytes with heparin was normal. In contrast, neutral lipase activity was increased in diabetic myocyte homogenates and microsomal fractions. Acid triacylglycerol lipase activity was not changed in diabetic myocytes. The decrease in LPL in myocytes owing to diabetes may result in the decreased functional LPL activity at the capillary endothelium of the diabetic heart.

Lipoprotein lipase association with lipoproteins involves protein-protein interaction with apolipoprotein B.
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) hydrolyzes chylomicron and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglycerides and potentiates the cellular uptake of lipoproteins. These LPL-lipoprotein associations could involve only protein-lipid interaction, or they could be modulated by apolipoproteins (apo). ApoB is the major protein component of chylomicrons, VLDL, and low density lipoprotein (LDL). ApoB100, a large glycoprotein with a molecular mass of 550 kDa, is composed of several functional domains. A carboxyl-terminal region of the protein is the ligand for the LDL receptor. There are several hydrophobic domains that are believed to be important in lipid binding. The relatively hydrophilic amino-terminal region of apoB, however, has no known function. Using solid phase assays we quantified LPL-lipoprotein complex formation. On a molar basis, severalfold greater amounts of LPL bound to LDL and VLDL than to high density lipoprotein at all the concentrations of LPL tested (0.9-55 nM). To assess the roles of LDL protein versus lipid, we performed competition and ligand blotting experiments. LDL and an amino-terminal fragment of apoB competed better for 125I-LPL binding to LDL than did lipid emulsion particles. Delipidation of LDL-coated plates did not alter LPL binding. On ligand blots, LPL bound to amino-terminal fragments of apoB generated by thrombin digestion but not to apoA1, apoE, or carboxyl-terminal fragments of apoB. Further evidence for LPL interaction with the amino-terminal region of apoB was obtained using anti-apoB monoclonal antibodies. Antibodies directed against the amino-terminal regions of apoB blocked LPL interaction with LDL, whereas those against the carboxyl-terminal region of apoB did not inhibit LPL interaction with LDL. Thus, we conclude that a specific interaction between LPL and the amino-terminal region of apoB may facilitate LPL association with circulating lipoproteins.

Heterogeneous mutations in the human lipoprotein lipase gene in patients with familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency.
The DNA sequences were determined for the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene from five unrelated Japanese patients with familial LPL deficiency. The results demonstrated that all five patients are homozygotes for distinct point mutations dispersed throughout the LPL gene. Patient 1 has a G-to-A transition at the first nucleotide of intron 2, which abolishes normal splicing. Patient 2 has a nonsense mutation in exon 3 (Tyr61----Stop) and patient 3 in exon 8 (Trp382----Stop). The latter mutation emphasizes the importance of the carboxy-terminal portion of the enzyme in the expression of LPL activity. Missense mutations were identified in patient 4 (Asp204----Glu) and patient 5 (Arg243----His) in the strictly conserved amino acids. Expression study of both mutant genes in COS-1 cells produced inactive enzymes, establishing the functional significance of the two mis-sense mutations. In these patients, postheparin plasma LPL mass was either virtually absent (patients 1 and 2) or significantly decreased (patients 3-5). To detect these mutations more easily, we developed a rapid diagnostic test for each mutation. We also determined the DNA haplotypes for patients and confirmed the occurrence of multiple mutations on the chromosomes with an identical haplotype. These results demonstrate that familial LPL deficiency is a heterogeneous genetic disease caused by a wide variety of gene mutations.

Functional characterization of a chimeric lipase genetically engineered from human lipoprotein lipase and human hepatic lipase.
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) mediate the hydrolysis of triglycerides and phospholipids present in circulating lipoprotein particles and are essential for normal lipid metabolism. Both enzymes have a similar primary amino acid structure and share requirements for intact catalytic, lipid binding, and heparin binding domains. However, LPL and HL exhibit different substrate specificities and cofactor requirements. In order to characterize the functional domains necessary for LPL activity, a chimeric lipase consisting of the amino-terminal 314 amino acids of human LPL and the carboxyl-terminal 146 amino acids of human HL was synthesized by joining the cDNA of both lipases at the 5'-end of exon 7. Northern blot hybridization and Western blot analyses revealed the size of the chimera mRNA and protein to be approximately 1.5 kb and 55 kDa, respectively. The chimeric enzyme hydrolyzed both long chain and short chain fatty acid triacylglycerols and had catalytic properties that were similar to lipoprotein lipase. Thus, apolipoprotein (apo)C-II was required for maximal lipase activity, and high salt concentration abolished the ability of the chimera to hydrolyze triolein even in the presence of apoC-II. A monospecific anti-HL polyclonal antibody interacting with the C-terminal HL-derived domain of the chimeric enzyme abolished the enzyme's ability to hydrolyze triglyceride emulsion but not tributyrin substrates. Analysis of the heparin binding properties of the chimeric enzyme using heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography revealed an elution pattern which was intermediate between that of lipoprotein and hepatic lipase. In summary, we have characterized the functional properties of an LPL-HL chimeric enzyme.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Endogenous plasma lipoprotein lipase activity in fed and fasting rats may reflect the functional pool of endothelial lipoprotein lipase.
In this study, a correlation was sought between the circulating lipoprotein lipase activity and nutritional state in the rat. In fed rats, the plasma lipoprotein lipase activity was between 30 and 120 munits/ml, whereas after an overnight fast in restraining cages, the lipoprotein lipase plasma levels were between 280 and 500 munits/ml. The plasma lipoprotein lipase activity was inhibited by a specific high titre goat antiserum to rat lipoprotein lipase. No effect of fasting was seen on the plasma hepatic triacylglycerol lipase. 6 h after fasting, adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase decreased maximally, but plasma lipoprotein lipase was not changed and rose only after 16 h. Thus, it seems that most of the lipoprotein lipase activity in the fasting plasma was related to the 3-fold rise in lipoprotein lipase activity in the heart, which may represent total muscle lipoprotein lipase. The increase in heart lipoprotein lipase was due in part to an increase in the t1/2 of the enzyme from 1.2 to 2.9 h. To determine whether the high plasma levels in the fasting rats might result from impaired clearance of the enzyme by the liver, functional hepatectomy was carried out. 15 min after hepatectomy, plasma lipoprotein lipase rose up to 20-fold in fed and about 6-fold in fasting rats. Lipoprotein lipase activity extracted by the liver was calculated to be 30-60 munits/ml in the fed and 171-247 munits/ml plasma per min in fasting rats. An increase in lipoprotein lipase activity in extrahepatic tissues (heart, lung, kidney, diaphragm and adrenal) occurred 30 min after hepatectomy in fed rats. The increase in heart lipoprotein lipase was due to an increase in heparin-releasable fraction. Since no impairment of hepatic clearance of circulating plasma lipoprotein lipase was found, the high fasting plasma lipoprotein lipase activity may be related to an increase in enzyme synthesis, decreased enzyme turnover and an expansion of the functional pool in tissues such as the heart and probably muscle. The present findings indicate that measurement of endogenous plasma lipoprotein lipase can provide information with respect to the size of the functional pool under normal and pathological conditions.

Purification of an anti-lipoprotein lipase antiserum.
Lipoprotein lipase is an enzyme difficult to isolate in pure form and, until now, the antisera prepared against it have not been monospecific. The present experiments show how a crude antiserum prepared with bovine milk lipoprotein lipase, can be made more specific through suitable adsorption. The crude antiserum was prepared by injecting milk lipoprotein lipase prepared by heparin Sepharose affinity chromatography. Immunodiffusion techniques indicated that the antiserum contained antibodies to proteins other than lipoprotein lipase (bovine milk and serum proteins) and that these antibodies could be eliminated by adsorption with bovine serum and a beta-casein preparation.

Release of endothelial cell lipoprotein lipase by plasma lipoproteins and free fatty acids.
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) bound to the lumenal surface of vascular endothelial cells is responsible for the hydrolysis of triglycerides in plasma lipoproteins. Studies were performed to investigate whether human plasma lipoproteins and/or free fatty acids would release LPL which was bound to endothelial cells. Purified bovine milk LPL was incubated with cultured porcine aortic endothelial cells resulting in the association of enzyme activity with the cells. When the cells were then incubated with media containing chylomicrons or very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), a concentration-dependent decrease in the cell-associated LPL enzymatic activity was observed. In contrast, incubation with media containing low density lipoproteins or high density lipoproteins produced a much smaller decrease in the cell-associated enzymatic activity. The addition of increasing molar ratios of oleic acid:bovine serum albumin to the media also reduced enzyme activity associated with the endothelial cells. To determine whether the decrease in LPL activity was due to release of the enzyme from the cells or inactivation of the enzyme, studies were performed utilizing radioiodinated bovine LPL. Radiolabeled LPL protein was released from endothelial cells by chylomicrons, VLDL, and by free fatty acids (i.e. oleic acid bound to bovine serum albumin). The release of radiolabeled LPL by VLDL correlated with the generation of free fatty acids from the hydrolysis of VLDL triglyceride by LPL bound to the cells. Inhibition of LPL enzymatic activity by use of a specific monoclonal antibody, reduced the extent of release of 125I-LPL from the endothelial cells by the added VLDL. These results demonstrated that LPL enzymatic activity and protein were removed from endothelial cells by triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (chylomicrons and VLDL) and oleic acid. We postulate that similar mechanisms may be important in the regulation of LPL activity at the vascular endothelium.

Recombinant human interleukin-1 suppresses lipoprotein lipase activity, but not expression of lipoprotein lipase mRNA in mesenchymal rat heart cell cultures.
The effect of human recombinant interleukin-1 (IL-1) on the regulation of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was studied in rat heart mesenchymal cell cultures. A time-dependent reduction in enzyme activity occurred with a 30% fall after 1 h. The suppression of enzyme activity was accompanied by a commensurate reduction in enzyme mass. The reduction in LPL activity was most prominent in the heparin releasable pool; IL-1 treatment resulted in a 7.2-8.3-fold decrease in the functional compartment and a 2.5-2.8-fold decrease in residual cellular activity. The effect of IL-1 could be prevented by the addition of the IL-1 inhibitor. However, in contradistinction to the effect of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), there was no change in LPL mRNA in cultures treated with IL-1. The present results show that the regulation of LPL in mesenchymal heart cell cultures by IL-1 occurs posttranscriptionally, as has been shown in 3T3 cells. The more pronounced effect on LPL activity in the functional pool suggests that IL-1 treatment might have influenced also the processing and/or transport of the enzyme to the cell surface.

Glucocorticoids and triglyceride transport: effects on triglyceride secretion rates, lipoprotein lipase, and plasma lipoproteins in the rat.
In order to elucidate the mechanism(s) of hyperlipidemia following glucocorticoid administration, dexamethasone (0.125 mg/Kg) was administered daily intramuscularly for 2 wk to male Sprague-Dawley rats and the effects on plasma triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol (Chol), lipoprotein neutral lipids, hepatic triglyceride secretion rates (TGSR; Triton), and epididymal fat lipoprotein lipase (LPL) were determined. Special measures were taken to maintain positive caloric balance and keep the weights of control and dexamethasone-treated animals comparable. Significant increases (p less than 0.001) in TG and very-low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglyceride associated with no change in Chol and actual reduction in both triglyceride and cholesterol in low density lipoprotein (ldl) were observed in the steroid-treated animals. Dexamethasone treatment was associated with increased basal insulin and glucose levels, an insignificant increment in TGSR, and a highly significant reduction (p less than 0.001) in LPL. These findings suggest that glucocorticoid treatment increases splanchnic triglyceride production rates, but the resulting hypertriglyceridemia is primarily a consequence of impaired VLDL removal due to low adipose tissue LPL activity.

High density lipoprotein subfractions in relation to lipoprotein lipase activity of tissues in man--evidence for reciprocal regulation of HDL2 and HDL3 levels by lipoprotein lipase.
High density lipoprotein subfractions HDL2 and HDL3 were separated from plasma of 22 normolipidemic healthy human subjects and analyzed for cholesterol, triglyceride, phospholipid and protein. In the same subjects the heparin-releasable lipoprotein lipase activity was assayed from biopsies of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. A significant inverse correlation was found between the plasma concentrations of HDL2 and HDL3 (4= -0.55, p less than 0.01). The HDL2 cholesterol and HDL2 phospholipid levels were negatively correlated with HDL3 protein levels. The total HDL2 and HDL2 cholesterol, phospholipid and protein concentrations were all positively correlated with lipoprotein lipase activity of both adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. In contrast, the corresponding HDL3 values did not show any correlation with adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase but the HDL3 cholesterol, triglyceride and protein levels were inversely correlated with skeletal muscle lipoprotein lipase activity. The results suggest that plasma HDL2 and HDL3 concentrations are reciprocally regulated by the activity of lipoprotein lipase. THe data are compatible with a concept proposing conversion of HDL3 to HDL2 through assimilation of cholesterol, phospholipids and apoproteins from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during their degradation by lipoprotein lipase. Particularly the concentration of the HDL2 is closely related to the rat of intravascular lipolysis.

A novel substitution at the translation initiator codon (ATG-->ATC) of the lipoprotein lipase gene is mainly responsible for lipoprotein lipase deficiency in a patient with severe hypertriglyceridemia and recurrent pancreatitis.
A patient with severe hypertriglyceridemia and recurrent pancreatitis was found to have significantly decreased lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity and normal apolipoprotein C-II concentration in post-heparin plasma. DNA analysis of the LPL gene revealed two mutations, one of which was a novel homozygous G-->C substitution, resulting in the conversion of a translation initiation codon methionine to isoleucine (LPL-1). The second was the previously reported heterozygous substitution of glutamic acid at residue 242 with lysine (LPL-242). In vitro expression of both mutations separately or in combination demonstrated that LPL-1 had approximately 3% protein mass and 2% activity, whereas LPL-242 had undetectable activity but normal mass. The combined mutation LPL-1-242 exhibited similar changes as for LPL-1, with markedly reduced mass, and for LPL-242, with undetectable activity. These results suggest that the homozygous initiator codon mutation rather than the heterozygous LPL-242 alteration was mainly responsible for the patient phenotypes.

Lipoprotein lipase enhances binding of lipoproteins to heparan sulfate on cell surfaces and extracellular matrix.
Lipoprotein lipase enhances binding at 4 degrees C of human plasma lipoproteins (chylomicrons, VLDL, intermediate density lipoprotein, LDL, and HDL3) to cultured fibroblasts and hepG-2 cells and to extracellular matrix. Heparinase treatment of cells and matrix reduces the lipoprotein lipase enhanced binding by 90-95%. Lipoprotein lipase causes only a minimal effect on the binding of lipoproteins to heparan sulfate deficient mutant Chinese hamster ovary cells while it promotes binding to wild type cells that is abolished after heparinase treatment. With 125I-LDL, lipoprotein lipase also enhances uptake and proteolytic degradation at 37 degrees C by normal human skin fibroblasts but has no effect in heparinase-treated normal cells or in LDL receptor-negative fibroblasts. These observations prove that lipoprotein lipase causes, predominantly, binding of lipoproteins to heparan sulfate at cell surfaces and in extracellular matrix rather than to receptors. This interaction brings the lipoproteins into close proximity with cell surfaces and may promote metabolic events that occur at the cell surface, including facilitated transfer to cellular receptors.

The effects of bovine serum albumin and oleic acid on rat pancreatic lipase and bovine milk lipoprotein lipase.
The effects of bovine serum albumin on rat pancreatic lipase and bovine milk lipoprotein lipase were studied in a system of triacylglycerol emulsions stabilized by 1 1 mg/ml albumin. At concentrations greater than 1 mg/ml, albumin inhibited the activity of pancreatic lipase and interfered with enzyme binding to emulsified triacylglycerol particles. These effects could be countered by occupying five fatty acid binding sites on albumin with oleic acid. Following an initial lag period which increased with albumin concentrations, enzyme activity escaped from inhibition presumably due to saturation of fatty acid sites on albumin with oleic acid. Pancreatic lipase was active at 1 mg/ml albumin and 1 mM emulsion-bound oleic acid in the system. The effects of albumin on lipoprotein lipase were diametrically opposed to the above; enzyme activity was completely inhibited by 0.1 mM oleic acid, it increased with increasing fatty acid-free albumin concentrations and decreased as the fatty acid sites on albumin were filled. At 1 mM oleic acid and no added albumin the enzyme failed to bind at the oil water interface, whereas fatty acid-free or saturated albumin had no effect on binding. It is concluded that if the inhibition of pancreatic lipase by albumin is due to the inaccessibility of the enzyme to an oil-water interface blocked by denatured albumin, then albumin saturated with oleic acid would seem to be protected from unfolding at the interface and more readily displaced by the lipase. Pancreatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase, although sharing a number of common features, are distinct enzymes both functionally and mechanistically.

A missense mutation at codon 188 of the human lipoprotein lipase gene is a frequent cause of lipoprotein lipase deficiency in persons of different ancestries.
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays a crucial role in the regulation of lipoprotein metabolism by hydrolysing the core triglycerides of circulating chylomicrons and VLDL. Human, bovine, mouse, and guinea pig complementary DNA clones have recently been isolated and the organization of the human LPL gene is now known to comprise 10 exons spanning approximately 30 kb. Here we report a similar mutation on 21 alleles from 13 unrelated affected probands with LPL deficiency of French Canadian, English, Polish, German, Dutch, and East Indian ancestry. We show that an identical missense mutation within exon 5, resulting in an amino acid substitution of glutamic acid for glycine at position 188, is responsible for LPL deficiency in 21 of 88 LPL alleles assessed. This mutation alters an Ava II restriction site in exon 5 and will allow a rapid screening test for this mutation in patients with LPL deficiency. This mutation has occurred on the same haplotype in all the unrelated affected persons suggesting a common origin. The amino acid substitution lies within the longest segment of homology for LPL in different species and results in a protein that is catalytically defective.

Effect of chlorate on the sulfation of lipoprotein lipase and heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Sulfation of heparan sulfate proteoglycans affects lipoprotein lipase degradation.
In avian-cultured adipocytes 76% of the newly synthesized lipoprotein lipase is degraded before release into the medium (Cupp, M., Bensadoun, A., and Melford, K. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 6383-6388). The same group (Cisar, L. A., Hoogewerf, A. J., Cupp, M., Rapport, C. A., and Bensadoun, A. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 1767-1774) has proposed that the interaction of lipoprotein lipase with a class of cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans is necessary for degradation to occur. To test further this hypothesis, the binding capacity of the plasma membrane for the lipase was decreased by inhibiting the sulfation of glycosaminoglycans with sodium chlorate, an inhibitor of sulfate adenyltransferase. Chlorate decreased sulfate incorporation into trypsin-releasable heparan sulfate proteoglycans to 20% of control levels. The amount of uronic acid in the trypsin-releasable heparan sulfate proteoglycans remained constant. Therefore, chlorate decreased sulfation density on heparan sulfate chains by approximately 5-fold. In the same fractions, chlorate increased the median heparan sulfate Mr measured on Sephacryl S-300. Chlorate decreased the maximum binding of 125I-lipoprotein lipase to adipocytes by 4-fold, but no significant effects on the affinity constants were observed. Chlorate increased lipoprotein lipase secretion in a dose-dependent relationship up to 30 mM. Utilizing a pulse-chase protocol, it was shown that lipase synthesis in control and chlorate-treated cells was not significantly different and that the increased secretion could be accounted for by a decreased lipoprotein lipase degradation rate. In control cells 77 +/- 11% of the synthesized enzyme was degraded whereas in chlorate-treated cells degradation was reduced to 42 +/- 9% of the synthesized amount. The present study shows that decreased sulfation of heparan sulfate proteoglycans decreases the maximum binding of the lipase for the adipocyte cell surface. Consistent with the model that binding of lipoprotein lipase to cell surface heparan sulfate is required for lipase degradation, degradation is reduced in chlorate-treated cultures. In this report it is also shown that chlorate inhibits lipoprotein lipase sulfation and that desulfation of the enzyme has no effect on its catalytic efficiency or on its binding to cultured adipocytes.

Pathogenesis of dyslipoproteinemia in renal insufficiency: the role of lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase.
The lipoprotein pattern, observed in patients with renal failure, suggests impaired catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. This is supported by the findings of numerous studies addressing the pathogenesis of the dyslipoproteinemia of uremia. Aberrant lipoprotein composition, resulting in disturbed substrate characteristics for lipoprotein lipase and unfavourable receptor ligand function, probably constitutes the primary pathology. The structural details of the lipoproteins that are responsible for this dysfunction are not yet established. In this regard, abnormal apolipoprotein pattern and, possibly more important, biological modifications must be taken into consideration. Low activity of lipoprotein lipase does not seem to be a primary pathogenetic factor. However, there is little doubt that it plays a contributory part. The role of hepatic lipase is controversial.

A missense (Asp250----Asn) mutation in the lipoprotein lipase gene in two unrelated families with familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency.
We have identified the molecular basis for familial lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency in two unrelated families with the syndrome of familial hyperchylomicronemia. All 10 exons of the LPL gene were amplified from the two probands' genomic DNA by polymerase chain reaction. In family 1 of French descent, direct sequencing of the amplification products revealed that the patient was heterozygous for two missense mutations, Gly188----Glu (in exon 5) and Asp250----Asn (in exon 6). In family 2 of Italian descent, sequencing of multiple amplification products cloned in plasmids indicated that the patient was a compound heterozygote harboring two mutations, Arg243----His and Asp250----Asn, both in exon 6. Studies using polymerase chain reaction, restriction enzyme digestion (the Gly188----Glu mutation disrupts an Ava II site, the Arg243----His mutation, a Hha I site, and the Asp250----Asn mutation, a Taq I site), and allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization confirmed that the patients were indeed compound heterozygous for the respective mutations. LPL constructs carrying the three mutations were expressed individually in Cos cells. All three mutant LPLs were synthesized and secreted efficiently; one (Asp250----Asn) had minimal (approximately 5%) catalytic activity and the other two were totally inactive. The three mutations occurred in highly conserved regions of the LPL gene. The fact that the newly identified Asp250----Asn mutation produced an almost totally inactive LPL and the location of this residue with respect to the three-dimensional structure of the highly homologous human pancreatic lipase suggest that Asp250 may be involved in a charge interaction with an alpha-helix in the amino terminal region of LPL. The occurrence of this mutation in two unrelated families of different ancestries (French and Italian) indicates either two independent mutational events affecting unrelated individuals or a common shared ancestral allele. Screening for the Asp250----Asn mutation should be included in future genetic epidemiology studies on LPL deficiency and familial combined hyperlipidemia.
