The prolonged incubation of dilute plasma on ice in the presence of added sulphatide vesicles or the long-chain saturated fatty acids (FA) stearic acid (C18:0) or behenic acid (C22:0) induced a concentration-dependent increase in factor VII coagulant activity (VIIc). The addition of FA at various ratios to human serum albumin showed the micellar non-bound pool to be responsible for this effect, FA bound to the high-affinity or low-affinity binding sites of albumin having no influence on VIIc. Plasma VIIc also increased following addition of behenate-enriched lipoprotein particles produced by incubation of the d < 1.006 g/ml lipoprotein fraction with this FA, or addition of lipoprotein remnants produced by pre-incubation of the d < 1.006 g/ml fraction with lipoprotein lipase. Long-chain saturated fatty acids in the interface of lipoprotein remnants, produced by the interaction of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles with lipoprotein lipase, appear to provide a surface that activates the contact system of coagulation and subsequently factor VII.

The major lipid disturbance in children with congenital nephrosis of the Finnish type (CNF) is hypertriglyceridaemia. To determine whether or not hypertriglyceridaemia is caused by defective triglyceride catabolism, we measured lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activities and masses at various stages of the disease. At age 3 months in CNF both LPL activity and mass were decreased, but a close positive correlation between these parameters similar to that in controls was observed. At age 9 months both LPL activity and mass were even lower. At that time a significant positive correlation (r = 0.72, P < 0.05) between LPL activities and albumin concentrations and significant negative correlations between plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations and LPL activities (r = -0.72, P < 0.05) and between plasma FFA concentrations and serum albumin concentrations (r = -0.73, P < 0.05) were observed, suggesting that low albumin concentrations result in increase of FFA levels, which could interfere with a normal LPL function at the endothelial surface. On dialysis after nephrectomy, LPL activities and masses increased. At age 3 and 9 months apoprotein C-II (apo C-II) and apoprotein C-III (apo C-III) levels were not decreased although apoproteins were being lost into the urine. On dialysis the mean ratio of apo C-II/C-III was significantly lower than the mean in controls (P < 0.001). We conclude that impaired function of LPL seems to be the major cause of hypertriglyceridaemia and disintegrity of the VLDL-IDL-LDL delipidation cascade in children with CNF.

Thioglycolate-elicited mouse peritoneal macrophages were incubated for 24 hours in serum-free Dulbecco-Vogt medium containing 0.5% fatty acid-poor bovine serum albumin. This conditioned medium, designated MP medium, was used for experiments with bovine aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs) or human skin fibroblasts (HSFs). Dulbecco-Vogt medium of the same albumin content but without macrophages served as a control medium. In SMCs labeled from plating the [3H]cholesterol and incubated with hypercholesterolemic rabbit beta-very-low-density lipoprotein (beta-VLDL) in Dulbecco-Vogt medium for 24 hours, there was an increase in cellular [3H]cholesteryl ester (CE) content compared with cells incubated without lipoprotein. When MP medium was used for the incubation of SMCs with beta-VLDL, cellular [3H]cholesteryl ester content increased threefold compared with cells incubated with Dulbecco-Vogt medium. A smaller increase in cholesterol esterification in the presence of MP medium was also encountered with low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The MP medium-induced increase in [3H]cholesterol esterification was not evident up to 6 hours of incubation. Similar results were also obtained with HSFs. The increase in [3H]cholesterol esterification with MP medium in the presence of beta-VLDL was also elicited in cells obtained from LDL receptor-negative donors with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH-HSF), even though in these cells significantly less [3H]cholesteryl ester was formed in the presence of beta-VLDL. MP medium contains numerous agents that could be responsible for the increase in cellular [3H]cholesteryl ester induced by lipoproteins. The first considered was lipoprotein lipase, but lack of inhibition of the MP medium effect by antiserum to lipoprotein lipase did not support this possibility.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA; a lipoxygenase inhibitor), LY-270766 (an inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase), and the diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor RG 80267 completely eliminated potassium-evoked release of [3H]-noradrenaline ([3H]NA) from the human neuroblastoma clone SH-SY5Y with IC50 values of 10, 15, and 30 microM, respectively. In contrast, these inhibitors only partially inhibited carbachol-evoked release and had little effect on the calcium ionophore A23187-evoked release of NA in this cell line. Arachidonic acid partially inhibited potassium- and A23187-evoked release but did not reverse the inhibition of potassium-evoked release observed in the presence of RG 80267. These studies suggest that arachidonic acid (or its lipoxygenase products) are not important intermediates in the regulation of exocytosis in SH-SY5Y. This conclusion is strengthened by our studies in which SH-SY5Y cells were grown in medium supplemented with bovine serum albumin-linoleic acid (50 microM). Under these conditions there was a selective increase in content of membrane polyunsaturated fatty acids of the omega 6 series, including arachidonic acid; however, these changes did not effect potassium-, veratridine-, carbachol-, or calcium ionophore-evoked release of [3H]NA.

Fatty acids (FA) were added to differentiating chick adipocytes to study their effects on the synthesis and secretion of avian lipoprotein lipase (LPL). Oleate (18:1n-9), eicosapentaenoate (EPA, 20:5n-3), and linoleate (18:2n-6) were complexed to fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA) and separately added to cells in RMPI-1640 media containing 0.5% delipidated hen serum. LPL secretion in the presence of 10 U/ml heparin was used as a means of estimating LPL synthesis. FA from 50 microM to 165 microM depressed LPL secretion for cells exposed to 20:5n-3 and 18:2n-6. The decrease in adipocyte LPL secretion was only observed with chronic administration of FA. In other experiments, the rate of LPL synthesis was estimated by incorporation of radiolabel (Tran 35S-label) in cells exposed to 50 microM FA. Total radioactivity incorporated into LPL, expressed as a percentage of total trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-precipitable radioactivity, was not affected in cells fed 18:1n-9 but was significantly decreased for cells fed 20:5n-3 (45%) or 18:2n-6 (67%) relative to controls given equimolar BSA (33 microM). Abundance of LPL message in similarly treated cells also decreased for cells incubated with 20:5n-3 or 18:2n-6 (35%) relative to controls and 18:1n-9-treated cells. A decrease in adipocyte LPL secretion was also observed with administration of lipoprotein (d < 1.006 g/ml) enriched in n-3 and n-6 fatty acids. LPL secretion of cells incubated with n-3 enriched lipoprotein at 50 microM and 75 microM triglyceride fatty acid equivalents was significantly greater than that of cells incubated with n-6-enriched lipoprotein. Interestingly, at the same concentrations of triglyceride fatty acids, lipoproteins enriched with n-9 fatty acids had no effect on LPL secretion relative to controls. These studies document that in cultured avian adipocytes, LPL secretion, synthesis, and level of message are decreased by chronic administration of n-3 and n-6 fatty acids. In contrast, in adipocytes supplemented with oleic acid there was no effect on LPL synthesis and secretion.

Free fatty acids (FFA) released during the lipolysis of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins in vivo are generally believed to be bound to serum albumin. When hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) sera were lipolyzed in vitro by purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase (LpL), there was an 11- to 18-fold increase in serum FFA levels, and a major portion (> 80%) of the FFA in serum was partitioned to lipoprotein fractions. The greatest portion (33%) of FFA in lipolyzed HTG serum was associated with newly formed flocculent remnants that banded just below low density lipoproteins (LDL) in the density gradient tube. Very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), LDL, and high density lipoprotein (HDL) fractions in lipolyzed HTG serum contained 18- to 29-times more FFA molecules than those in prelipolysis serum. Analysis of the fatty acyl chain composition of FFA in lipolyzed HTG serum showed that the extent of partitioning of saturated FFA into the lipoprotein fractions relative to that of polyunsaturated FFA was about 4.5- to 11-times greater than that partitioned into the free protein fraction; most (84%) of FFA partitioned into flocculent remnants were saturated fatty acids. In vivo lipolysis of TG-rich lipoproteins in HTG subjects, induced by heparinization, resulted in only a small (2.8-fold) increase in serum FFA and little or no increase in the partitioning of FFA to lipoproteins. However, in vitro incubation of the postheparin serum at 37 degrees C for 90 min resulted in a 2.9- to 6.8-fold increase in the serum FFA level and the partitioning of > 66% of total serum FFA into lipoprotein fractions. Studies of the interaction of various plasma fractions from control and in vitro lipolyzed HTG serum with cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages (MPM) showed that FFA partitioned to lipoprotein fractions were highly cytotoxic to cultured MPM, whereas FFA partitioned to albumin at a 10 x greater concentration were not cytotoxic. The cytotoxic potencies of FFA bound to lipoproteins and albumin were further compared after in vitro incorporation of FFA (oleic acids) into LDL and to albumin. FFA bound to LDL but not to albumin were cytotoxic to cultured MPM; the cytotoxicity of FFA bound to LDL was more closely related to the FFA to LDL-cholesterol molar ratio than to the total FFA concentration in the culture dish. The ability of FFA bound to LDL and albumin to induce foam cell formation was studied in THP-1 monocyte-derived macrophages, which were less susceptible to cytotoxicity produced by FFA bound to LDL than MPM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

1. The effects of (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (1S,3R-ACPD), a non-selective agonist of the metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), have been studied in rat cortical and striatal slices by measuring the depolarization-induced output of D-[3H]-aspartate (D-[3H]-Asp) and of [3H]-glutamate ([3H]-Glu), neosynthesized from [3H]-glutamine. 2. In cortical slices, 1S,3R-ACPD potentiated the depolarization-induced (KCl, 30 mM) output of both D-[3H]-Asp and [3H]-Glu. The potentiation, obtained at 300 microM 1S,3R-ACPD was 65 +/- 6% for D-[3H]-Asp and 56 +/- 10% for [3H]-Glu. Conversely, in striatal slices, 1S,3R-ACPD reduced the depolarization-induced transmitter output. The reduction, obtained at 300 microM of the agonist, was 60 +/- 8% for D-[3H]-Asp and 50 +/- 5% for neosynthesized [3H]-Glu. 3. Bovine serum albumin (BSA, 15 microM), which is able to bind locally produced fatty acids, completely eliminated the potentiating effect 1S,3R-ACPD had on D-[3H]-Asp output from cortical slices. Low concentrations of arachidonic acid (1-10 microM) or of oleic acid (1-10 microM) added to BSA-containing perfusion medium, restored this potentiating effect. BSA, however, had no effect on the inhibitory action of 1S,3R-ACPD in striatal slices. 4. Bromophenacyl bromide (100 microM), an inhibitor of phospholipase A2, and RG80267 (100 microM), an inhibitor of diacylglycerol lipase, have been shown to inhibit fatty acid production. These compounds prevented the potentiating effect of 1S,3R-ACPD on D-[3H]-Asp-output in cortical slices. 5. Indomethacin (100 microM), an inhibitor of cyclo-oxygenases, plus nordihydroguaiaretic acid (100 microM), an inhibitor of lipoxygenases, increased D-[3H]-Asp output in cortical slices perfused with BSA-containing medium. 6. These experiments suggest that the mGluR-mediated potentiation of transmitter output requires the availability of unsaturated fatty acids, such as arachidonic or oleic acids, in cortical slices. In contrast, the mGluR-induced inhibition of transmitter output is not dependent upon fatty acid availability in striatal slices. The requirement of both unsaturated fatty acids and 1S,3R-ACPD in the facilitation of transmitter exocytosis may play an important role in the regulation of synaptic plasticity.

Cardiovascular complications account for more than 50% of death in hemodialysis patients. Strong and independent predictors of mortality or cardiovascular complications are low levels of serum albumin, high plasma C-reactive protein and lipoprotein(a), plasma proteins that are described to function as negative or positive acute phase reactants. Further prominent and known risk factors that contribute to the increased incidence of atherosclerosis in hemodialysis patients are disorders in lipoprotein metabolism and elevated plasma fibrinogen concentrations. The latter has also been described to increase following acute or chronic inflammation. The main metabolic abnormality of the lipoprotein profile is a delayed catabolism of triglyceride-rich apoB-containing lipoproteins caused by a decreased activity of lipolytic enzymes. Inhibition of lipoprotein lipase activity by cytokines or parathyroid hormone impedes conversion of very-low-density lipoprotein to low-density lipoprotein, resulting in remnant accumulation and hypertriglyceridemia. Another acute phase condition, namely, acute myocardial infarction, results in a similar pattern of dyslipidemia and coagulation disorder. In summary, the acute phase response deeply influences serum lipids and lipoproteins as well as other atherogenic acute phase proteins in hemodialysis patients. Appreciation of acute phase lipoprotein changes is essential for accurate diagnosis of dyslipidemias, proper design of future clinical studies, and correct interpretation of published data.

The metabolism of 3-phenoxybenzoic acid (3PBA) in the form of triacylglycerol conjugates was compared with that of non-esterified 3PBA. Three radiolabeled triacylglycerols (rac-1-(3-phenoxy-[ring-14C]-benzoyl)-2,3-dipalmitoylglycerol (1(3PBA)DPG), sn-2-(3-phenoxy-[ring-14C]benzoyl)-1,3-dipalmitoylglycerol (2(3PBA)DPG) and the "natural" tri-[1-14C]oleoylglycerol) were incorporated into rat VLDL. Nonesterified 3PBA was prepared in rat serum albumin solution. Each preparation was administered i.v. to rats and serial blood samples were taken during the subsequent 6 hr. Urine and faeces were collected and tissue residues determined at 6 hr and 48 hr after administration. Biphasic elimination of 3PBA was observed with half-lives of 18 min and 2 hr. The triacylglycerols showed a rapid first phase and a longer second phase half-life: trioleoylglycerol 26 hr, 1(3PBA)DPG 7.6 hr and 2(3PBA)DPG 17.3 hr. The majority (63-76%) of 3PBA (whether esterified or not) was eliminated within 24 hr in urine, which contained similar profiles of metabolites. The triacylglycerols gave rise to higher tissue residues than did non-esterified 3PBA, particularly in adipose tissue which alone was not significantly depleted of radioactivity between 6 and 48 hr. The results accord with the rapid association of the VLDL-(3PBA)DPG complexes with lipoprotein lipase of the capillary epithelium, followed by hydrolysis to 3PBA, metabolism and elimination but with a proportion being redistributed into adipose tissue, re-esterified and then eliminated relatively slowly.

A vanadyl sulfate-bovine serum albumin complex (vanadyl-BSA) prolonged the stability of the V4+ oxidation state, although vanadyl alone can readily change the oxidation state from V4+ to V5+ under physiological conditions. Vanadyl-BSA stimulated the release of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity from isolated rat fat pads and increased the cellular LPL activity in a time-dependent manner. These effects were independent of protein synthesis. Propranolol, quin 2-AM, ruthenium red, and neomycin all inhibited LPL release more potently than the increase in activity. In contrast, potent inhibition of the increase effect was observed with genistein and wortmannin. Short-term incubation of the fat pads with vanadyl-BSA showed a transient increase in the cellular content of cAMP and myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), which was inhibited by propranolol and neomycin, respectively. These results suggest that vanadyl-BSA stimulates the release of LPL activity through an increase in the cellular content of cAMP and IP3, leading to an increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration, and that it also increases cellular LPL activity via process(es) sensitive to genistein and wortmannin.
