Developmental changes in the activity of lipoprotein lipase (clearing-factor lipase) in rat lung, cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue.

ABSTRACT: The lipoprotein lipase activity of the lung, skeletal muscle, heart muscle and brown adipose tissue of the rat was studied during the period from late foetal to adult life. The enzyme activity in all four tissues emerged substantially during the first 24th after birth. Subsequently, heart and lung enzyme activity remained relatively constant per unit wet weight of tissue. The enzyme activity present in brown adipose tissue and skeletal muscle was elevated per unit weight of tissue during suckling compared with other periods of life. Delivery of near-term foetuses stimulated the emergence of enzyme activity in all four tissues with the same time course as that evoked by normal delivery. The significance of the presence of the enzyme in the tissues and the activity changes which occurred during development are discussed in relation to possible mechanisms of control.

The lipoprotein lipase (clearing-factor lipase) activity of cells isolated from rat cardiac muscle.

Project description:The total lipoprotein lipase activity recovered in suspension of cells prepared from adult rat hearts was unaffected by the nutritional state of the animals used. The enzyme activity present in the cell suspensions was almost exclusively associated with the cardiac muscle cells present as the major cell type.

Changes in the lipoprotein lipase (clearing-factor lipase) activity of white adipose tissue during development of the rat.

Project description:The lipoprotein lipase (clearing-factor lipase) activity of the white adipose tissue from rats aged between 1 and 145 days was determined. Five adipose-tissue sites (epididymal, uterine, subcutaneous, perirenal and intramuscular) together with serum concentrations of triacylglycerol, cholesterol and glucose were studied. The pattern of enzyme-activity change was remarkably similar in all the sites studied, although the growth of the tissues proceeded non-uniformly. After a peak of activity early in suckling, lipoprotein lipase activity fell to low values by 20 days of age. At weaning (21 days) the activity increased sharply and within 5 days high values were regained. The serum triacylglycerol and cholesterol concentrations were low at birth and reached peaks of concentration coincidentally with the minima of white-adipose-tissue lipoprotein lipase activities, seen late in suckling. The changes in enzyme activity were related to other metabolic changes in adipose tissue and with the known changes in plasma insulin concentrations occurring during development.

Changes in lipoprotein lipase activities in adipose tissue, heart and skeletal muscle during continuous or interrupted feeding.

Project description:Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activities in parametrial and interscapular adipose tissue, soleus and adductor longus muscles and hearts of female rats were measured during progressive starvation, chow re-feeding after 24 h starvation and throughout dark and light phases in rats permitted unrestricted access to chow. Adipose-tissue LPL activities declined by 50% after 6 h starvation and continued to fall as the starvation period was extended to 24 h. Skeletal-muscle LPL activities dramatically increased between 9 and 12 h of starvation. Cardiac LPL activities increased 2.5-fold within 6 h of starvation, reaching a maximum after 12 h of starvation. Adipose-tissue LPL activities increased rapidly within 2 h of re-feeding chow ad libitum after 24 h starvation, achieving 'fed ad libitum' values after 6 h. Oxidative-skeletal-muscle LPL activities also increased after 2 h of refeeding and exceeded 'fed ad libitum' values throughout the 6 h re-feeding period. Cardiac LPL activities remained up-regulated for the 6 h of re-feeding. Adipose-tissue LPL activities exceeded those of cardiac or skeletal muscle throughout both light and dark phases. The lowest adipose-tissue LPL activities were observed at 9 h into the light phase. In contrast, cardiac LPL activity declined throughout the dark phase, with a minimum at 9 h into the dark phase. No such variation was observed for skeletal-muscle LPL activities. A diurnal nadir in plasma triacylglycerol (TG) concentrations coincided with the peak in cardiac LPL activities. The results demonstrate that, during unrestricted feeding and re-feeding after prolonged starvation, changes in skeletal-muscle and adipose-tissue LPL activities are neither reciprocal nor co-ordinate. Regulation of cardiac LPL activity during the diurnal cycle may be an important aspect of both of cardiac fuel selection and whole-body TG metabolism.

Clearing-factor lipase in muscle and adipose tissue of pigs.

Project description:1. Clearing-factor lipase was assayed in acetone-ether-dried powders of heart and adipose tissue of pigs. The enzyme activity in heart was higher than that in adipose tissue. The activity in the outer layer of subcutaneous fat was greater than that in the inner subcutaneous fat and the perirenal fat, which had similar activities. 2. Starvation for 48h, but not for 24h, decreased the activity of the heart enzyme. 3. Starvation for 24h caused a rapid decrease in the activity in all three adipose tissues, but even after 72h of starvation the activity was still highest in the outer subcutaneous fat. 4. Plasma fatty acid, glucose and insulin concentrations were determined in fed and starved pigs. Starvation decreased the plasma insulin concentration and increased the non-esterified fatty acid concentration.

Induced mutant mouse lines that express lipoprotein lipase in cardiac muscle, but not in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, have normal plasma triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels.

Project description:The tissue-specific expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in adipose tissue (AT), skeletal muscle (SM), and cardiac muscle (CM) is rate-limiting for the uptake of triglyceride (TG)-derived free fatty acids and decisive in the regulation of energy balance and lipoprotein metabolism. To investigate the tissue-specific metabolic effects of LPL, three independent transgenic mouse lines were established that expressed a human LPL (hLPL) minigene predominantly in CM. Through cross-breeding with heterozygous LPL knockout mice, animals were generated that produced hLPL mRNA and enzyme activity in CM but lacked the enzyme in SM and AT because of the absence of the endogenous mouse LPL gene (L0-hLPL). LPL activity in CM and postheparin plasma of L0-hLPL mice was reduced by 34% and 60%, respectively, compared with control mice. This reduced LPL expression was sufficient to rescue LPL knockout mice from neonatal death. L0-hLPL animals developed normally with regard to body weight and body-mass composition. Plasma TG levels in L0-hLPL animals were increased up to 10-fold during the suckling period but normalized after weaning and decreased in adult animals. L0-hLPL mice had normal plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels, indicating that LPL expression in CM alone was sufficient to allow for normal HDL production. The absence of LPL in SM and AT did not cause detectable morphological or histopathological changes in these tissues. However, the lipid composition in AT and SM exhibited a marked decrease in polyunsaturated fatty acids. From this genetic model of LPL deficiency in SM and AT, it can be concluded that CM-specific LPL expression is a major determinant in the regulation of plasma TG and HDL-cholesterol levels.

Lipoprotein Lipase Overexpression in Skeletal Muscle Attenuates Weight Regain by Potentiating Energy Expenditure.

Project description:Moderate weight loss improves numerous risk factors for cardiometabolic disease; however, long-term weight loss maintenance (WLM) is often thwarted by metabolic adaptations that suppress energy expenditure and facilitate weight regain. Skeletal muscle has a prominent role in energy homeostasis; therefore, we investigated the effect of WLM and weight regain on skeletal muscle in rodents. In skeletal muscle of obesity-prone rats, WLM reduced fat oxidative capacity and downregulated genes involved in fat metabolism. Interestingly, even after weight was regained, genes involved in fat metabolism were also reduced. We then subjected mice with skeletal muscle lipoprotein lipase overexpression (mCK-hLPL), which augments fat metabolism, to WLM and weight regain and found that mCK-hLPL attenuates weight regain by potentiating energy expenditure. Irrespective of genotype, weight regain suppressed dietary fat oxidation and downregulated genes involved in fat metabolism in skeletal muscle. However, mCK-hLPL mice oxidized more fat throughout weight regain and had greater expression of genes involved in fat metabolism and lower expression of genes involved in carbohydrate metabolism during WLM and regain. In summary, these results suggest that skeletal muscle fat oxidation is reduced during WLM and regain, and therapies that improve skeletal muscle fat metabolism may attenuate rapid weight regain.

Brown Adipose Tissue Controls Skeletal Muscle Function via the Secretion of Myostatin.

Project description:Skeletal muscle and brown adipose tissue (BAT) are functionally linked, as exercise increases browning via secretion of myokines. It is unknown whether BAT affects muscle function. Here, we find that loss of the transcription factor IRF4 in BAT (BATI4KO) reduces exercise capacity, mitochondrial function, ribosomal protein synthesis, and mTOR signaling in muscle and causes tubular aggregate formation. Loss of IRF4 induces myogenic gene expression in BAT, including the secreted factor myostatin, a known inhibitor of muscle function. Reducing myostatin via neutralizing antibodies or soluble receptor rescues the exercise capacity of BATI4KO mice. In addition, overexpression of IRF4 in brown adipocytes reduces serum myostatin and increases exercise capacity in muscle. Finally, mice housed at thermoneutrality have reduced IRF4 in BAT, lower exercise capacity, and elevated serum myostatin; these abnormalities are corrected by excising BAT. Collectively, our data point to an unsuspected level of BAT-muscle crosstalk driven by IRF4 and myostatin.

HOXA5 Participates in Brown Adipose Tissue and Epaxial Skeletal Muscle Patterning and in Brown Adipocyte Differentiation.

Project description:Brown adipose tissue (BAT) plays critical thermogenic, metabolic and endocrine roles in mammals, and aberrant BAT function is associated with metabolic disorders including obesity and diabetes. The major BAT depots are clustered at the neck and forelimb levels, and arise largely within the dermomyotome of somites, from a common progenitor with skeletal muscle. However, many aspects of BAT embryonic development are not well understood. Hoxa5 patterns other tissues at the cervical and brachial levels, including skeletal, neural and respiratory structures. Here, we show that Hoxa5 also positively regulates BAT development, while negatively regulating formation of epaxial skeletal muscle. HOXA5 protein is expressed in embryonic preadipocytes and adipocytes as early as embryonic day 12.5. Hoxa5 null mutant embryos and rare, surviving adults show subtly reduced iBAT and sBAT formation, as well as aberrant marker expression, lower adipocyte density and altered lipid droplet morphology. Conversely, the epaxial muscles that arise from a common dermomyotome progenitor are expanded in Hoxa5 mutants. Conditional deletion of Hoxa5 with Myf5/Cre can reproduce both BAT and epaxial muscle phenotypes, indicating that HOXA5 is necessary within Myf5-positive cells for proper BAT and epaxial muscle development. However, recombinase-based lineage tracing shows that Hoxa5 does not act cell-autonomously to repress skeletal muscle fate. Interestingly, Hoxa5-dependent regulation of adipose-associated transcripts is conserved in lung and diaphragm, suggesting a shared molecular role for Hoxa5 in multiple tissues. Together, these findings establish a role for Hoxa5 in embryonic BAT development.

Angiopoietin-like 4 governs diurnal lipoprotein lipase activity in brown adipose tissue.

Project description:OBJECTIVE: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) burns fatty acids (FAs) to produce heat, and shows diurnal oscillation in glucose and triglyceride (TG)-derived FA-uptake, peaking around wakening. Here we aimed to gain insight in the diurnal regulation of metabolic BAT activity.METHODS: RNA-sequencing, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)-sequencing and lipidomics analyses were performed on BAT samples of wild type C57BL/6J mice collected at 3-h intervals throughout the day. Knockout and overexpression models were used to study causal relationships in diurnal lipid handling by BAT.RESULTS: We identified pronounced enrichment of oscillating genes involved in extracellular lipolysis in BAT, accompanied by oscillations of FA and monoacylglycerol content. This coincided with peak lipoprotein lipase (Lpl) expression, and was predicted to be driven by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) activity. ChIP-sequencing for PPARγ confirmed oscillation in binding of PPARγ to Lpl. Of the known LPL-modulators, angiopoietin-like 4 (Angptl4) showed the largest diurnal amplitude opposite to Lpl, and both Angptl4 knockout and overexpression attenuated oscillations of LPL activity and TG-derived FA-uptake by BAT.CONCLUSIONS: Our findings highlight involvement of PPARγ and a crucial role of ANGPTL4 in mediating the diurnal oscillation of TG-derived FA-uptake by BAT, and imply that time of day is essential when targeting LPL activity in BAT to improve metabolic health.
