Hormone-sensitive lipase and cholesterol ester hydrolase of chicken adipose tissue were markedly activated by adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (on the average, 235 to 275%; occasionally as much as 1000%). Diglyceride and monoglyceride hydrolases were also activated, but to a lesser extent (60 to 87%). The activation of all four hydrolases was inhibited by protein kinase inhibitor and reversed by the addition of exogenous protein kinase. Following activation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, all four hydrolases were deactivated in a Mg2+-dependent reaction and then reactivated to or near initial levels on incubation with cAMP and Mg2+-ATP. The reversible deactivation is assumed to reflect activity of one or more protein phosphatases. The maximum activation obtainable for the four hydrolases decreased when the tissue had been previously exposed to glucagon, indicating that the glucagon-induced activation was probably similar to or identical with the activation demonstrated in cell-free preparations. The pH optima for the four hydrolase activities were similar (7.13 to 7.38). Although the absolute activities and relative degrees of kinase activation differed according to the particular emulsified substrates used, the results do not rule out the possibility that all four hydrolase activities are referable to a single hormone-sensitive hydrolase. Hormone-sensitive acyl hydrolases were separated from lipoprotein lipase by heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography. Lipoprotein lipase was active against triolein, diolein, and monoolein, but not cholesterol oleate. Incubation of lipoprotein lipase with exogenous protein kinase, cAMP, and Mg2+ATP had no effect on any of the three hydrolase activities. Lipoprotein lipase was further purified to homogeneity and used to prepare antiserum in rabbits. The immunoglobin G fraction from these antisera completely inhibited lipoprotein lipase eluted from heparin-Sepharose columns. However, the hormone-sensitive hydrolase activities (not retained on heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatography) were not inhibited by anti-lipoprotein lipase immunoglobin G, and anti-lopoprotein lipase immunoglobin G did not affect the activation process in crude fractions. Thus, hormone-sensitive lipase and lipoprotein lipase, functionally distinct enzymes, have been physically resolved and immunochemically distinguished. Apparently lipoprotein lipase activity is not regulated, at least directly, by cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

A triglyceride lipase was extracted from defatted pig adipose tissue powder with dilute ammonia and purified about 230-fold by a combination of ammonium sulfate fractionation, heparin-Sepharose 4B, DEAE-cellulose, and Sephadex G-150 column chromatographies and isoelectrofocusing electrophoresis. The enzyme was distinguishable in physical and kinetic properties from the two previously defined lipases in adipose tissue, lipoprotein lipase, and hormone-sensitive lipase. The purified enzyme was fully active in the absence of serum lipoprotein and was not stimulated by adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase. In marked contrast to the already defined lipases, the enzyme was strongly inhibited by serum albumin. The enzyme had a molecular weigt of about 43,000, a pI of 5.2, and pH optimum of 7.0. The enzyme hydrolyzed triolein to oleic acid and glycerol, and did not exhibit esterase activity. The apparent Km for triolein was 0.05 mM. Physiological roles of this new species of lipase remained to be explored.

A new assay procedure for triglyceride lipase [EC 3.1.1.3] was developed in which radioactive triolein was dissolved in ethanol and directly added to the reaction mixture in the absence of serum and albumin. In the rat adipose tissue there appeared to be a triglyceride lipase measurable with this assay in addition to the two previously defined lipases, lipoprotein lipase [EC 3.1.1.34] and hormone-sensitive lipase. The enzyme was active in the absence of serum and was strongly inhibited by albumin. The molecular weight was estimated to be about 42,000. Adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase [EC 2.7.1.27] was unable to activate the enzyme. The three species of lipases mentioned above behaved differently upon chromatography on a Sepharose 4B column, and were distinguishable from each other in their physical and kinetic properties. The physiological roles of the new species of lipase remain to be explored.

Some physiologic aspects of the mobilization and fate of free fatty acids are reviewed. The molecular mechanism of the activation of hormone-sensitive lipase in adipose tissue is then discussed. Recent evidence established that hormone-sensitive lipase, concerned with fat mobilization, is both functionally and immunochemically distinct from lipoprotein lipase, concerned with uptake of plasma triglycerides. Lipoprotein lipase activity is not altered by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The latter enzyme enhances not only triglyceride hydrolase but also monoglyceride, diglyceride and cholesterol ester hydrolase activities in chicken adipose tissue. Finally, it is shown that the activation of all four acyl hydrolases is reversible, the deactivation being magnesium-dependent. Protein phosphatase fractions from heart and liver active against phosphorylase a can reversibly deactivate adipose tissue hormone-sensitive lipase, implying a low degree of substrate specificity for lipase phosphatase.

Activatable cholesterol esterase and triacylglycerol lipase of rat adrenal were 58-69% recovered in the 100 000 X g supernatant fraction. Activatable triacylglycerol lipase activity was differentiated from the activity of acid lipase and lipoprotein lipase also found in this fraction. Cholesterol esterase was activated 39.7 +/- 13.6% (S.D.) and triacylglycerol lipase 11.9 +/- 2.9% in a reaction dependent on ATP, cyclic AMP, and protein kinase. The two activities were shown by differential inhibition by an organophosphate, and by partial separation on salting out, to be largely due to separate enzymes. The two enzymes bound tightly to substrate emulsions with quantitatively similar distribution between competing emulsions, suggesting concerted binding. Coinciding gel filtration patterns reinforced, The hypothesis of a lipase complex. Cholesterol esterase comprised a major component of higher apparent Km for substrate and molecular weight 3-10(5)-6-10(5) by gel filtration and a minor component of lower apparent Km and heterogeneous molecular weight above 1 million, which was found mostly in complex and lipid.

A tri-, di-, and monoacylglycerol-hydrolyzing enzyme from rat adipose tissue has been detergent-solubilized and separated from monoacylglycerol lipase (H. Tornqvist and P. Belfrage, 1976, J. Biol. Chem. 251, 813-819) and lipoprotein lipase by use of ion-exchange chromatography, broad and narrow pH range electrofocusing and gel chromatography. The final preparation contained several different proteins. One of these, with an apparent minimum molecular weight of 86,000 by SDS-gel electrophoresis, was identified as the enzyme protein of hormone-sensitive lipase: a) the enzyme activity was reproducibly stimulated 50-100% by incubation with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, cyclic AMP and ATP-Mg2+; b) the relative intensity of the Mw 86,000 protein band, and only this, closely paralleled the enzyme activity during narrow pH range electrofocusing and during subsequent gel chromatography of the electrofocusing enzyme peak fraction; c) only the Mw 86,000 protein extensively incorporated 32p from [gamma-32P]ATP after incubation with protein kinase and cyclic AMP. The pI of the enzyme was 6.7, it had the same Stokes radius on Sephadex G 200 as IgG and was 50% inactivated by 10 micron HgCl2, 20 micron PCMB, 50 micron DFP, 10 mM NaF and non-ionic detergents above their critical micellar concentration.

Recently, it was shown that lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was produced in neonatal but not in adult rat liver. In an attempt to further define the mechanism involved in liver LPL expression, we identified a neonatal mouse hepatoma cell line, BWTG3, capable of producing LPL. The regulation of LPL expression by various extracellular stimuli was investigated in this cell line. Progesterone caused a rise in LPL production by BWTG3 cells. Other hormones tested, such as insulin, glucagon, adrenalin, testosterone, and thyroid hormone, had no effect on LPL production. The effects of progesterone on LPL production showed slow kinetics reaching a maximum 24 h after addition. Cotransfection of a progesterone receptor expression vector with a 5'-LPL-CAT reporter construct resulted in an induction of CAT activity, suggesting that the increase in LPL accumulation after progesterone was linked to transcriptional induction of the LPL gene. Stimuli causing an elevation of protein kinase A activity in the cells also increased LPL production. Three agents capable of elevating intracellular cAMP levels, i.e., forskolin, dBcAMP, and choleratoxin, caused an elevation of LPL production. The increase in LPL activity caused by forskolin and choleratoxin was paralleled by an elevation of LPL mRNA levels, while dBcAMP only induced a small elevation of LPL mRNA levels. The increase in LPL production was shown to be linked to the stimulation of the PKA signal transduction pathway and was apparently transmitted via the transcription factor CREB. No effect of the stimulation of protein kinase C or calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase on LPL production was detected.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Cholesterol ester hydrolase activity has been studied in mammary glands of rats. Subcellular fractionation of the glands obtained in mid-lactation indicated that around 80% of the recovered activity was associated with particulate fractions. Two distinct cholesterol ester hydrolase activities were identified, one with an optimum pH of 7.5-9.0 and the second (approximately 5% of the total activity) with a more acidic pH optimum. Although the neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase had some properties in common with the lipoprotein lipase in mammary tissue, it was shown to be a separate entity by several criteria. Its activity could be increased following treatment with Mg-ATP and cAMP-dependent protein kinase, suggesting identity with the hormone sensitive lipase of adipose tissue. The cholesterol ester hydrolase activity in mammary glands just after parturition was greater than in glands obtained either from late-pregnant or midlactating animals. The subcellular distribution of the neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase suggested that it may have a different function to the neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase of adrenals and other tissues. Nevertheless the fact that the activity of the enzyme can be modulated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase suggests the possibility that hormonal control of this enzyme may be involved in the regulation of cholesterol metabolism in the mammary gland.

A protein kinase inhibitor, 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7) increased lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity in isolated rat fat pads in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The incubation of H-7 with partially purified LPL did not affect its activity. Under the marked inhibition of protein synthesis by cycloheximide, H-7 still showed a full effect on the increase in LPL activity. A slight but significant increase in LPL activity in the fat pads was observed with inhibitors of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinase. H-7, therefore, may increase LPL activity through processes other than the direct activation of the LPL molecule, or the stimulation of LPL molecule synthesis; probably through a decrease in the activity of protein kinases, especially protein kinase C.

Epinephrine was used to activate the heparin non-releasable lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in the 3 skeletal muscle fiber types of the perfused rat hindlimb. Following a 9 min washout of the capillary-bound lipoprotein lipase, the hindquarter of the rat was perfused with a buffer containing 10 nM of epinephrine. Activity of the residual LPL in soleus, red vastus lateralis, and white vastus lateralis muscles increased 75%, 96%, and 102% respectively, following epinephrine perfusion. These results suggest that skeletal muscle LPL is under hormonal control possibly through protein phosphorylation by cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase.
