Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) catalyses the initial, rate-limiting, reaction in adipose-tissue lipolysis. Hormone-stimulated lipolytic activity has also been observed in the heart, where endogenous triacylglycerol is the major energy store. However, the identity of the intracellular
lipase
responsible has yet to be established. We have partially purified a neutral
lipase
from bovine heart muscle and compared its properties with those of HSL from bovine adipose tissue. The heart
lipase
has the same subunit Mr as HSL, is immunoprecipitated by antiserum raised against purified HSL and is phosphorylated by
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
, apparently at the same site as HSL (as judged by h.p.l.c. of tryptic phosphopeptides). Phosphorylation of the heart
lipase
was found to result in increased enzyme activity, demonstrating the
lipase
's potential to respond to hormonal stimuli. The heart
lipase
was shown to be present in myocytes by its immunoprecipitation from homogenates of rat myocytes by anti-HSL antiserum. These findings are consistent with the conclusion that HSL is responsible for intracellular lipolysis in heart.

The activity of a pigeon adipose tissue hormone-sensitive
triacylglycerol lipase
preparation was increased from 2- to 5-fold by the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine in assays with three different methods of preparing triolein substrates. Phosphatidylethanolamine from egg yolk produced the greatest stimulation of
lipase
activity; the stimulation was concentration-dependent but was not time-dependent. A comparable increase in
triacylglycerol lipase
activity due to phosphatidylethanolamine was also observed with enzyme preparations from chicken and rat adipose tissue. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidic acid, cardiolipin, sphingomyelin, Triton X-100 and sodium dodecyl sulfate all inhibited enzyme activity. Phosphatidylethanolamine had no effect on acid
lipase
activity in the pigeon adipose tissue preparation. Preincubation of the pigeon adipose tissue
lipase
with ATP, cyclic AMP and
protein kinase
resulted in a 2.15-fold activation of hydrolase activity determined in the absence of phosphatidylethanolamine. In contrast, non-activated and
protein kinase
-activated forms of the
lipase
were characterized as having very nearly the same activity in assays with substrate preparations containing phosphatidylethanolamine. The phosphatidylethanolamine-dependent stimulation of
lipase
activity was characterized kinetically as being due to an increase in maximal velocity. The modulation of the adipose tissue hormone-sensitive lipase activity by phospholipids could be involved in the hormonal regulation of lipolysis.

Lipolysis of intracellular triglycerides in the heart has been shown to be regulated by hormones. However, activation of myocardial
triglyceride lipase
in a cell-free system has not been directly demonstrated. In the present studies, initial attempts to demonstrate cAMP-dependent activation of
triglyceride lipase
using the 1,000 X g supernatant fraction (S1) of mouse heart homogenate were unsuccessful, presumably due to the masking effects of high levels of lipoprotein lipase activity even when assayed at pH 7.4 and in the absence of apolipoprotein C-II. Myocardial lipoprotein lipase in the 40,000 X g supernatant fraction was then removed by heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The lipoprotein lipase-free fractions were shown to contain neutral
triglyceride lipase
and neutral cholesterol esterase of about equal activities. The
triglyceride lipase
and cholesterol esterase activities fell progressively during preincubation in the presence of 5 mM Mg2+. Additions of cAMP and ATP resulted in 40-70% activation of both
triglyceride lipase
and cholesterol esterase. The activation was blocked by protein kinase inhibitor and was restored by the addition of exogenous
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
. Since lipoprotein lipase has no activity toward cholesteryl oleate, activation of cholesterol esterase in untreated S1 was readily demonstrable. Both
triglyceride lipase
and cholesterol esterase activities were present in homogenates prepared from isolated rat heart myocytes. We conclude that the myocardium contains a hormone-sensitive lipase that is regulated in a fashion similar to that of the adipose tissue enzyme.

Swine adipose tissue hormone-sensitive lipase, purified 475-fold to 10% protein purity, has been identified as a polypeptide of Mr = 84,000. The enzyme has high specific activity against tri-, di- and monoacylglycerols, as well as cholesterol esters, and is inhibited by millimolar NaF, and micromolar HgCl2 and DFP. The enzyme polypeptide serves as a substrate for
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
. The characteristics of the hormone-sensitive lipase from swine adipose tissue are similar to those reported previously for the enzyme from rat. They differ from those reported for the
lipase
from chicken adipose tissue, and possible reasons for these differences are discussed.

The fast-acting lipolytic hormones and insulin regulate adipose tissue lipolysis through control of the activity of hormone-sensitive lipase. This enzyme catalyzes the rate limiting step of adipose tissue lipolysis--the hydrolysis of stored triacylglycerols. The isolated enzyme is rapidly phosphorylated and activated by
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
, with 1 mol of phosphate incorporated per mol of
lipase
Mr = 84000 subunit into a single serine residue. The enzyme is dephosphorylated and deactivated by protein phosphatases type 1, 2A and 2C. In the intact, isolated adipocytes the enzyme incorporates phosphate in the absence of hormonal stimulation into a specific 'basal' phosphorylation site. The phosphorylation of this 'basal' site (into a serine residue) is not accompanied with any change of the activity of the enzyme and is not influenced by hormones. The fast-acting lipolytic hormones induce a phosphorylation of another serine residue in a 'regulatory' phosphorylation site, which is identical to that phosphorylated in the isolated enzyme by
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
. Following the phosphorylation of the 'regulatory' site the activity of the
lipase
, and consequently the rate of lipolysis, is increased almost 50-fold. Insulin causes a rapid net dephosphorylation of the
lipase
and exerts its well-known anti-lipolytic action. Half-maximal inhibition of both phosphorylation and activity occurs at an insulin concentration of about 25 pM. The mechanism(s) whereby insulin causes its effects is unknown but apparently to a large extent involve reduction of the cellular cyclic AMP level.

Adipocytes from hypothyroid rats have a decreased responsiveness to agents that activate adenylate cyclase, whereas cells from hyperthyroid rats have an increased responsiveness as compared to the controls. This is reflected in cyclic AMP accumulation as well as lipolysis. Administration of pertussis toxin to rats or its in vitro addition to adipocytes increased basal lipolysis and cyclic AMP accumulation as well as the response to norepinephrine or forskolin. The effects of thyroid status was not abolished by toxin treatment. Pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP ribosylation of Ni was increased in adipocyte membranes from hypothyroid rats as compared to those from euthyroid rats. However, no change in sensitivity to N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine was observed. The data suggest that the amount of Ni might not be rate-limiting for the inhibitory action of adenosine. A consistent decrease in maximal lipolysis was observed in freshly isolated adipocytes from hypothyroid animals as compared to those from the controls. Such defective maximal lipolysis was not corrected by adenosine deaminase or in vivo administration of pertussis toxin. The relationship between cyclic AMP levels and lipolysis suggests that in fat cells from hypothyroid rats either the
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
or the
lipase
activity itself may limit maximal lipolysis. There appears to be multiple effects of thyroid status on lipolysis involving factors other than those affecting adenylate cyclase activation.

The effect of CAM [cyclic AMP, Mg-ATP, and 3-isobutyl, 1-methylxanthine (MIX)] on triacylglycerol (TG)
lipase
activity in extracts from heparin-perfused rat heart was determined. TG
lipase
activity in homogenate, 10,000g supernatant, 105,000g supernatant, ammonium sulfate supernatant, and the eluate from heparin-Sepharose was increased between 62 and 151% when incubated with a combination of 0.3 mM cyclic AMP, 5 mM MgCl2, and 2 mM ATP. The addition of Mg-ATP + cyclic AMP caused a greater activation of TG
lipase
in the various fractions than did Mg-ATP + MIX or cyclic AMP + MIX. These results suggest that activation may be mediated by the classical cyclic AMP-
protein kinase
cascade. Control and CAM-stimulated activities were increased by heparin and inhibited by NaCl and protamine sulfate. In the absence of serum in the assay, the CAM system caused a relatively greater stimulation of lipolytic activity in each fraction compared to when serum was present in the assay. However, the absolute values were 6.1 to 16.3-fold greater with serum in the assay than without serum. In a similar manner, TG
lipase
activity was stimulated by CAM between 1.75 and 4.26-fold at pH 7.4, and only between 1.62 and 2.51-fold at pH 8.1. However, the absolute values at pH 8.1 were 6.77 to 31.83-fold greater than those seen at pH 7.4. These data demonstrate, for the first time, the cyclic AMP activation of a TG
lipase
above basal levels in cell-free fractions of rat heart. It is intriguing to speculate that the intracellular fraction of lipoprotein lipase may play a role in the hormonal regulation of cardiac TG lipolysis.

In rat adipocytes hormone-sensitive lipase is phosphorylated at two sites termed 'regulatory' and 'basal', in the former case by
cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase
causing an activation of the
lipase
[(1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81, 3317-3321]. Here, the basal phosphorylation site was found to be phosphorylated by
glycogen synthase kinase
-4 without any effects on
lipase
activity, or on the extent of its activation subsequent to phosphorylation of the regulatory site. Glycogen synthase kinase-3,
casein kinase
-I, and
casein kinase
-II did not phosphorylate the
lipase
. Phosphorylase kinase phosphorylated it to a very low extent at a third phosphorylation site not phosphorylated in the fat cell.

Diacylglycerol lipase and kinase activities were measured in particulate and soluble fractions from rabbit aorta (intima-media) and coronary microvessels. With rabbit aorta, the hydrolysis at the sn-1 position of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycerol had a pH optimum of 5-6 and was greater than hydrolysis at the sn-2 position (pH optimum of 6.5). Only the 2-monoacylglycerol accumulated during incubations at pH 5 and 6.5. These results are consistent with an ordered two-step reaction sequence where the fatty acid at the sn-1 position is released first, followed by the hydrolysis of the fatty acid from the 2-monoacylglycerol by a monoacylglycerol lipase with a neutral pH optimum. Lipase activity (sn-2 hydrolysis) at pH 6.5 was greater than kinase activity at all substrate concentrations. The presence of arachidonate at the sn-2 position of the diacylglycerol increased kinase activity but had little effect on
lipase
activity. Kinase activity was mainly particulate, whereas 50-60% of diacylglycerol lipase and 50% of monoacylglycerol lipase activity were soluble. Diacylglycerol lipase and kinase were also present in coronary microvessel preparations. Diacylglycerol lipase (sn-2 hydrolysis) activity in coronary microvessels was not enhanced by preincubation of the enzyme preparation with
cAMP-dependent protein kinase
.

The biochemical events initiated by mitogen in T lymphocytes are the subject of this paper. Following interaction of the mitogen with its receptors, a transmembrane 'trigger-type' signal is propagated which has both positive and negative correlates. The negative signal occurs with high mitogen concentrations and is associated with membrane freezing, microtubular aggregation, receptor capping, adenylate cyclase activation, and cellular cyclic AMP increases. The positive signal occurs with optimal mitogen concentrations and is associated with changes in membrane permeability and transport with influx of calcium and potassium ion and efflux of sodium, in transport processes for glucose, amino acids, and nucleosides, and in a collected series of early membrane lipid changes which can be considered essential for the positive signal. These lipid changes include the uptake of arachidonic acid and other fatty acids, choline, phosphate and other molecules, their incorporation into membrane phospholipids, particularly phosphatidylinositol (PI), and a turnover of PI with the production of inositol triphosphate, which can be related to calcium mobilization and diacylglycerol which activates a cytoplasmic protein kinase C. A key event associated with mitogen action is arachidonic acid release. Arachidonic acid may give rise to prostaglandins and thromboxanes as part of negative components of the signal through effects on the adenylate cyclase/cyclic AMP system. Arachidonic acid gives rise to eicosanoids like 5-, 11-, possibly 12- and 15-hydroxyperoxy and hydroxy eicosatetraenoic acids and leukotrienes B4 and C4. The activation of the 5-lipoxygenase, a critical calcium-dependent step, leads via the production of 5-HPETE and 5-HETE to the activation of membrane and soluble guanylate cyclase and the production of cyclic GMP. Cyclic GMP appears to be essential for mitogen activation and is associated with cyclic GMP-dependent
protein kinase
activation and the phosphorylation of a number of substrates. Calcium ion influx is clearly central to mitogen action. Calcium through its influx and mobilization from cellular stores is thought to contribute directly and indirectly through the action of calmodulin and protein kinase C to the activation of a number of enzymatic processes involved in the positive signal including phospholipase C, diglyceride kinase and
lipase
, 5-lipoxygenase, and guanylate cyclase. Cyclic GMP and calcium ion both participate in nuclear processes leading to RNA and protein synthesis. Interleukin 2 is associated with midcycle increases in cyclic GMP and entry into DNA synthesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
