3T3-L1 cells have been a useful model system for studying adipocyte differentiation and metabolism. They acquire a hormone-sensitive lipase during differentiation (Kawamura, M., et al. 1981. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 78: 732-735). In the present study the control of lipolysis in these cells was investigated. Basal glycerol release from cell monolayers was 437 nmol/mg protein per hr, and could be stimulated approximately 6-fold by exposure to 1 microM isoproterenol. Subcellular fractionation of stimulated cells revealed a redistribution of triglyceride lipase activity: loss from the infranatant fraction and increase in the pellet fraction. The redistribution was dosage-dependent and reversible. Treatment of intact cells with 8-bromoadenosine 3':5' cyclic monophosphate elicited similar redistribution of the lipase activity; however, disruption and incubation of untreated cells in the presence of ATP and either cyclic AMP or the catalytic subunit from cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not. The lipase activity in the pellet fraction was increased 3- to 4-fold after maximal lipolytic stimulation of intact cells, whereas phosphorylation of the enzyme in vitro yielded 1.4- to 1.6-fold stimulation in all subcellular fractions from untreated cells. The lipase found in the particulate fraction has the same properties as the previously characterized infranatant enzyme. It is suggested that interaction of the lipase with substrate and associated intracellular membranes may be a novel feature of the regulation of lipolysis.

A phosphoprotein phosphatase has been partially purified from rat epididymal fat pads by a procedure utilizing ammonium sulfate and ethanol precipitations and chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50. The phosphatase was eluted from Sephadex G-75 columns with an apparent molecular weight of 28 000. The phosphoprotein phosphatase catalyzed the reversible deactivation of protein kinase activated chicken adipose tissue hormone-sensitive triglyceride lipase. Phosphatase activity measured with activated triglyceride lipase as substrate was completely dependent upon the presence of metal ions (Mg2+, Ca2+, or Mn2+) and was inhibited by inorganic phosphate and adenine nucleotides. The fat pad phosphatase increased the rate of activation of glycogen synthase in rat adipose tissue infranatant fractions from fed and 24-h fasted rats but had little or no effect on synthase activity in infranatant fractions from rats fasted for 48 h. Fasting had no effect on rat fat pad phosphatase activity measured with triglyceride lipase as substrate, but phosphatase activity was decreased in preparations from diabetic rats.

Differentiation of 3T3-L1 fibroblasts to adipocyte-like cells was accompanied by a 19-fold increase in neutral triglyceride lipase activity, a 12-fold increase in diglyceride lipase activity, a 10-fold increase in monoglyceride lipase activity, and a 280-fold increase in cholesterol esterase activity. In contrast, acid acylhydrolase activities did not increase during differentiation. The rate of glycerol release from unstimulated intact cells increased by more than 1 order of magnitude upon differentiation. Isoproterenol (1 microM) and 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine (0.1 mM) further stimulated this rate of glycerol release 3-fold. The neutral triglyceride lipase activity in cell-free preparations of differentiated cells was activated 105% by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Neutral cholesterol esterase, diglyceride lipase, and monoglyceride lipase were also activated (117%, 10%, and 37+, respectively) by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. In contrast, protein kinase had no effect on any of the four lysosomal acid acylhydrolase activities. Thus, hormone-sensitive lipase, the most characteristic and functionally important enzyme of adipose tissue, has been characterized in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells. The 3T3-L1 cell should be a valuable model system in which to study regulation of hormone-sensitive lipase, particularly its long-term regulation.

The recent literature regarding the mechanisms of regulation of lipolysis with emphasis on the role of cyclic nucleotides is reviewed. The following conclusions appear warranted at present. (1) Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is a major regulator of lipolysis. However, mechanisms other than the production and catabolism of cAMP also exist. (2) Insulin can lower adipocyte cyclic AMP levels, but this effect cannot explain all aspects of the antilipolytic effect of insulin. (3) Insulin stimulates cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and inhibits adenylate cyclase in adipocytes. In addition, there are probably other targets of insulin action. The possibilities include cAMP dependent protein kinase, phosphoprotein phosphatase, and triacylglycerol lipase. (4) Cyclic GMP is probably not directly involved in the regulation of lipolysis. (5) Cytosolic Ca2+ probably plays an important role in the regulation of lipolysis. The nature of such a role for Ca2+ and the potential role of calmodulin in the regulation of lipolysis remain to be explored.

Hormone-sensitive lipase has been purified from rat adipose tissue to almost 50 per cent protein purity and partially characterized. The isolated enzyme can be phosphorylated by ATP-Mg2+ in the presence of the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from the same tissue. Its activity towards emulsified triglyceride is thereby increased two-fold. The enzyme is phosphorylated also in the intact adipocyte, verifying the physiological relevance of the findings with the isolated enzyme. Noradrenaline causes a rapid increase in phosphorylation of the enzyme in intact adipocytes, immediately followed by a marked increase of its activity. Addition of dibutyryl-cyclic AMP to the adipocytes causes the same effects. The extent of phosphorylation of the enzyme after maximal noradrenaline stimulation of the adipocytes is rapidly decreased by insulin addition in close association with inhibition of the lipase activity. The results demonstrate that these hormones regulate the activity of the hormone-sensitive lipase, ie the rate of lipolysis in the adipocytes, by changes of the degree of phosphorylation of the enzyme.

Forskolin increased cyclic AMP accumulation in isolated adipocytes and markedly potentiated the elevation of cyclic AMP due to isoproterenol. In adipocyte membranes, forskolin stimulated adenylate cyclase activity at concentrations of 0.1 microM or greater. Forskolin did not affect the EC50 for activation of adenylate cyclase but did increase the maximal effect of isoproterenol. Neither the soluble nor particulate low-Km cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity was affected by forskolin. Low concentrations of forskolin (0.1-1.0 microM), which significantly elevated cyclic AMP levels, did not increase lipolysis, whereas similar increases in cyclic AMP levels due to isoproterenol elevated lipolysis. Forskolin did not inhibit the activation of triacylglycerol lipase by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase or the subsequent hydrolysis of triacylglycerol. Higher concentrations of forskolin (10-100 microM) did increase lipolysis. Both the increased cyclic AMP production and lipolysis due to forskolin were inhibited by the antilipolytic agents insulin and N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine. Hypothyroidism reduced the ability of forskolin to stimulate cyclic AMP production and lipolysis. These results indicate that forskolin increases cyclic AMP production in adipocytes through an activation of adenylate cyclase. Lipolysis is activated by forskolin but at higher concentrations of total cyclic AMP than for catecholamines.

The effects of free fatty acids and fatty acyl esters of coenzyme A and carnitine on the activity of a hormone-sensitive lipase preparation made from pigeon adipose tissue were determined. Oleic acid (100 microM) resulted in a 40% inhibition of lipase activity. A more potent inhibition of lipase activity was seen with long-chain fatty acyl CoA compounds. The concentration required for half-maximal inhibition with oleoyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA was 25-40 microM, whereas palmitoyl carnitine stimulated lipase activity. Activated lipase preparations (preincubated with Mg2+, ATP, cyclic AMP and protein kinase) were 4-6 times more sensitive to inhibition by oleoyl CoA than were nonactivated preparations. An increase in cellular levels of fatty acyl coenzyme A could, therefore, contribute to the feedback inhibition of lipolysis in adipose tissue.

Incubation of purified hormone-sensitive lipase, 32P-phosphorylated with the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and [gamma-32P]ATP-Mg2+, with partially purified protein phosphatase from the same tissue caused a rapid decrease of the 32P content of the enzyme protein. Deactivation of the lipase towards emulsified trioleoylglycerol was temporally related to the dephosphorylation with approx. 80% decrease of both phosphorylation and activity within 30 min. Addition of ATP-Mg and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase to the dephosphorylated lipase was shown to rephosphorylate and reactivate the enzyme. These findings are the first direct demonstration of reversible protein phosphatase-catalyzed dephosphorylation/deactivation of hormone-sensitive lipase.

In isolated adipocytes, fast-acting lipolytic hormones and insulin have been shown previously to control lipolysis by regulating the activity of hormone-sensitive lipase, the rate-limiting enzyme, through an increase or decrease, respectively, of the extent of phosphorylation of the enzyme. Here, we demonstrate that exposure to lipolytic hormones (corticotropin, noradrenaline) led to phosphorylation at two sites on the Mr 84,000 lipase subunit. One, designated "basal site," was phosphorylated also in the absence of any hormonal stimulation, its phosphorylation apparently not being influenced by hormones. The second, designated "regulatory site," was identical to that phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase on the isolated lipase. The regulatory site was not appreciably phosphorylated in the absence of hormones, but exposure of the cells to noradrenaline increased its phosphorylation extent to that of the basal site. Insulin or the beta-adrenergic antagonist propranolol decreased the extent of phosphorylation of the regulatory site to the low level before stimulation, apparently without effect on the basal site. Phosphoserine was the only phosphorylated amino acid residue at both sites. Limited proteolytic digestion indicated that the two sites were separated by less than about 170 amino acid residues. Thus, control of adipose tissue lipolysis by fast-acting lipolytic hormones and by insulin is exerted through the regulation of the phosphorylation state of a single phosphoserine residue in the hormone-sensitive lipase.

The lipolytic action of theophylline was examined using both intact fat cells and a fat globule system. Theophylline had similar lipolytic actions in both systems. However theophylline did not activate hormone-sensitive lipase in the fat globule system as measured with added Ediol. Pretreatment of the fat globules with phospholipase C suppressed theophylline-induced lipolysis, but phospholipase D had no effect. A theophylline-sensitive system was reconstituted from endogenous fat and a lipase fraction. Inhibitors of theophylline-induced lipolysis such as quinine and propranolol inhibited theophylline binding to artificial lipid micelles. Purine nucleosides such as adenosine, inosine and guanosine inhibited theophylline-induced lipolysis in the fat globule system. These results suggest that theophylline has a lipolytic action similar to that of adrenaline. Both share a lipolytic mechanism additional to that involving the activation of hormone sensitive lipase through the cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinase. Phospholipids play an important role in this additional mechanism.
