Treatment of cardiac myocytes with 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, forskolin or cholera toxin does not stimulate cellular or heparin-releasable lipoprotein lipase activities.

ABSTRACT: Incubation of isolated cardiac myocytes with 500 microM-8-(4-chlorophenylthio)adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (CPT-cAMP) or 100 microM-forskolin for 2 1/2 h did not increase the heparin-induced release of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) into the medium. When LPL activity in cardiac myocytes was depleted by treatment of rats with cycloheximide (2 mg/kg; 2.5 h) and inclusion of the protein-synthesis inhibitor in the isolation solutions, incubation with CPT-cAMP or forskolin did not influence the rate of repletion of LPL activity in cells or the recovery of heparin-releasable LPL activity. Although the administration of cholera toxin (0.5 mg/kg; 16-17 h) to rats increased LPL activity in a low-speed supernatant fraction from heparin-perfused hearts, LPL activity was not increased in cardiac myocytes from cholera-toxin-treated rat hearts, and the heparin-induced release of LPL was unchanged. Incubation of cultured ventricular myocytes with 1 microgram of cholera toxin/ml or 500 microM-CPT-cAMP for 24 h did not increase cellular LPL activity or LPL released into the culture medium after a 40 min incubation with heparin. Therefore interventions that stimulate adenylate cyclase activity (forskolin, cholera toxin) or incubation with CPT-cAMP do not increase cellular LPL activity or promote the translocation of LPL to a heparin-releasable fraction in cardiac myocytes.

Short-term incubation of cardiac myocytes with isoprenaline has no effect on heparin-releasable or cellular lipoprotein lipase activity.

Project description:Heparin (5 units/ml) produced a rapid (5-10 min) release of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) into the incubation medium of cardiac myocytes. Preincubation of myocytes for 30 min with 0.01-10 microM-isoprenaline, 100 microM-forskolin or 500 microM-8-(4-chlorophenylthio)adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate did not increase heparin-releasable LPL activity. Incubation with isoprenaline also did not change cellular LPL activity, even though the catecholamine did increase the phosphorylase a activity ratio.

The storage and synthetic pools of heparin-releasable lipoprotein lipase and hepatic triacylglycerol lipase in the growing puppy.

Project description:Age-related changes in the activities of extrahepatic lipoprotein lipase and hepatic triacylglycerol lipase were determined during a primed/constant-rate infusion of heparin for 2 h in puppies between birth and 18 weeks of age. The early (storage) and late (synthetic) phases were measured. Both phases of hepatic triacylglycerol lipase activity were well developed in the first week, reflecting the metabolic maturity of the liver at birth. During the 18 weeks of study, the activity remained relatively unchanged except for a sharp peak at 12 weeks. Extrahepatic lipoprotein lipase activity was low in the first 4 weeks of suckling. Its storage pool increased 6-fold in the next 14 weeks, with a less marked rise in its late (synthetic) pool. Sustained increases in the activity of this enzyme were first noticed during weaning, when the insulin-secretory response matured. Endogenous insulin-secretory capacity rather than the fat content of the feed appeared significant in the postnatal development of lipoprotein lipase (Clearing-factor lipase) activity.

Heparin-releasable lipase activity of rat adrenals, ovaries and testes.

Project description:The presence of NaCl-resistant, neutral triacylglycerol hydrolase (lipase) activity in rat adrenal gland, ovary and testis was studied. Both adrenals and ovaries but not testes were found to contain such a lipase. The activity of the enzyme in the adrenal gland was lowered during cortisol treatment and hypothyroidism. An elevated adrenal lipase activity was found during hyperthyroidism. Pseudo-pregnant and lactating rats had higher ovarian lipase activities than cyclic rats. Ovarian lipase activity in lactating rats was positively correlated with the serum concentrations of progesterone and of 20 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and negatively correlated with the high-density-lipoprotein non-esterified cholesterol concentration. The lipase activity of adrenals and of ovaries was largely releasable from these organs by heparin and could be inhibited by an antibody against heparin-releasable liver lipase. This indicated that the lipase is extracellularly located and is similar to 'liver' lipase. A possible role of this lipase in adrenals and ovaries is discussed.

Identification of a heparin-releasable hepatic lipase binding protein from rat liver.

Project description:Hepatic lipase (HL) plays a key role in the metabolism of several lipoproteins. Metabolically active HL is bound in liver parenchymal cells to specific binding sites. We studied the nature of the HL binding in rat liver. Rat livers were perfused with heparin, which lead to a loss of 80% of the HL binding capacity of the liver. The heparin-containing perfusates possessed HL binding capacity, determined by slot-blot assay. The perfusates were loaded on to a heparin-Sepharose column and eluted with a linear salt gradient (0.2-1 M). HL binding activity, assessed by a slot-blot binding assay, eluted both at 0.3 M and at 0.8 M NaCl. A 0.5 M NaCl eluate was used to further characterize the HL binding activity. In this fraction the major protein had a molecular mass of 70 kDa. The fraction showed saturable HL binding in a solid-phase binding assay. Cross-linking of the 0.5 M NaCl fraction to 125I-labelled HL yielded a complex of 130 kDa, suggesting the cross-linking of the 57 kDa 125I-labelled HL to a protein of about 73 kDa. We concluded that heparin releases a protein of about 73 kDa from rat liver, which associates with HL. This protein may represent the HL binding site in liver.

Localization of the heparin-releasable lipase in situ in the rat liver.

Project description:Immunofluorescence and immuno-electron microscopy were used for the localization of the heparin-releasable lipase in situ in the rat liver. The lipase is located exclusively on the liver endothelial cells. No labelling could be detected on the parenchymal of Kupffer cells, or in the livers of heparin-pretreated animals. The physiological significance of the endothelial localization of the hepatic lipase is discussed.

Ganglioside embedded in reconstituted lipoprotein binds cholera toxin with elevated affinity.

Project description:The ability to exogenously present cell-surface receptors in high-affinity conformations in a synthetic system offers an opportunity to provide host cells with protection from pathogenic toxins. This strategy requires improvement of the synthetic receptor binding affinity against its native counterpart, particularly with polyvalent toxins where clustering of membrane receptors can hinder binding. Here we demonstrate that reconstituted lipoprotein, nanometer-sized discoidal lipid bilayers bounded by apolipoprotein and functionalized by incorporation of pathogen receptors, provides a means to enhance toxin-receptor binding through molecular-level control over the receptor microenvironment (specifically, its rigidity, composition, and heterogeneity). Using a Foerster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)-based assay, we found that reconstituted lipoprotein incorporating low concentrations of ganglioside monosialotetrahexosylganglioside (GM1) binds polymeric cholera toxin with significantly higher affinity than liposomes or supported lipid bilayers, most likely a result of the enhanced control over receptor clustering provided by the lipoprotein platform. Using wide-area epifluorescence, we found that this enhanced binding capacity can be effectively utilized to divert cholera toxin away from populations of healthy mammalian cells. In summary, we found that reconstitutions of high-density lipoprotein can be engineered to include specific pathogen receptors; that their pathogen binding affinity is altered, presumably due to attenuation of receptor aggregation; and that these assemblies are effective at protecting cells from biological toxins.

Complete loss of heparin-releasable triacylglycerol lipase activity after collagenase treatment of the rat liver.

Project description:Lipolytic activity at pH 8.5-9.5 was lowered by approx. 80% in homogenates from livers perfused with collagenase or heparin. No heparin-releasable lipase activity was detected in hepatocytes isolated by collagenase treatment. It is concluded that crude collagenase completely inactivates the plasma-membrane-bound heparin-releasable lipase.

Effects of beta-adrenergic receptor activation, cholera toxin and forskolin on human natural killer cell function.

Project description:Membranes from highly purified natural killer (NK) cells were ADP-ribosylated by treatment with cholera toxin (CTX). CTX resulted in a single band of specific 32P incorporation at Mr 43,600. CTX treatment of intact NK cells caused a 9-fold increase in cyclic AMP (cAMP) concentrations. Pretreatment of NK cells with CTX diminished their ability to lyse K562 tumour cells by up to 79%. Forskolin treatment elevated NK cell cAMP levels 8-fold and decreased lysis of K562 cells by up to 45%. Adrenaline and isoprenaline (isoproterenol) both inhibited lysis of K562 cells by approx. 35% and elevated cAMP by at least 2.5-fold, and their inhibition of lysis was reversed by propranolol. These data suggest that the stimulatory guanine-nucleotide-binding protein GS coupled to beta-adrenergic receptors is involved in transducing signals which inhibit NK cell lysis of tumour cells. CTX and forskolin also diminish the ability of NK cells to bind K562 cells (binding is necessary for lysis). This suggests that the NK-cell receptor(s) for the tumour cell may be altered as a consequence of cAMP-mediated events or by activation of GS.
