Analysis of plasma lipids of 30- and 185-day-old BIO 82.62 myopathic hamsters and age-matched normal controls revealed a decrease in only the concentration of cholesteryl esters of 185-day-old diseased animals. Measurement of
lipoprotein lipase
(
LPL
) activity in heart, muscle, and adipose tissue showed no difference between the activity of the enzyme in the heart and muscle of the cardiomyopathic hamsters and that of the age-matched controls. In adipose tissue, however,
LPL
activity was depressed in the diseased animals in both age groups. No difference was found in the activity of hormone sensitive
lipase
. Incorporation of sn[U-14C] glycerol-3-phosphate into total lipids was found to be depressed in homogenates of heart, muscle, and adipose tissue but unchanged in liver homogenates of diseased animals. It was concluded that the decrease in the capacity to synthesize glycerides, rather than limiting substrate concentrations, could be the cause of the decrease in the lipid content in some tissues of the cardiomyopathic hamster.

The stereochemical course of in vivo hydrolysis of triacylglycerols by
lipoprotein lipase
was investigated by determining the structure of diacylglycerol intermediates in postheparin plasma of rats which had been fed [3H]glycerol-labeled Intralipid 2 h before an injection of heparin or had been given an injection of a mixture of [3H]glycerol-Intralipid and heparin. During the clearance of both the natural chylomicrons and the artificial emulsion, sn-2,3-diacylglycerols (60-80%) were found to be the dominant enantiomers. Similar results were obtained when the contribution of the
hepatic lipase
was altered, either by tying off the mesentery artery and portal vein before injection of heparin, or by injection of heparin directly into the portal vein. These findings are consistent with a preferential release of the acyl group from the sn-1 position of the triacylglycerol molecule as demonstrated previously in vitro. A preferential orientation of the substrate in the enzyme-substrate complex or at the oil-water interface is discussed as a possible basis for these effects.

An antibody was prepared against purified rat heart
lipoprotein lipase
. 1. This antibody showed marked species specificity. It inhibited almost totally the
lipoprotein lipase
activity from all rat tissues examined (i.e., heart, adipose, postheparin plasma, and mammary gland), while having no effect on the activity of
lipoprotein lipase
partially purified from rabbit, guinea pig and bovine heart and from bovine milk. The antibody also had no effect on the
hepatic lipase
activity of rat postheparin plasma. 2. After antibody to rat heart
lipoprotein lipase
was recirculated for 5 min through isolated rat hearts, little or no
lipoprotein lipase
activity could be detected in the perfusate during 0-20 s of a subsequent non-recirculating perfusion with buffer containing 1 unit heparin/ml. 3. Following recirculation of antibody to
lipoprotein lipase
for 10 min and a non-recirculating perfusion with buffer for 2 min, the hearts no longer oxidized any significant amounts of 14C-labelled palmitate chylomicron triacylglycerol fatty acid to 14CO2 during a 15-min perfusion. The data give compelling evidence that the functional fraction of
lipoprotein lipase
in hearts is at the endothelial cell surface accessible to
lipoprotein lipase
antibody.

The rate of inactivation of
triglyceride hydrolase
activity by protamine sulphate was determined in pooled, normal, post-heparin plasma. Two distinct first-order rates of inactivation were obtained and the derived constants used to calculate the
lipoprotein lipase
and
hepatic lipase
contributions to the total post-heparin
triglyceride hydrolase
activity in normal controls and in patients with familial hyperchylomicronaemia. The
lipoprotein lipase
was reduced in the patients whereas the
hepatic lipase
was normal. There was however a marked age-related increase in the hepatic enzyme activity in normal subjects. Post-heparin lipolytic activity, assayed in vitro against lipoproteins of d less than 1.006 derived from the patients, was markedly reduced in our hyperchylomicronaemic subjects. This assay correlated well with the
lipoprotein lipase
activity determined by selective protamine sulphate inactivation.

The nature of the lipolytic activity released from chicken livers perfused with Krebs-Ringer buffer (pH 7.0) containing heparin (50 or 10 U/ml), fraction V albumin (3%), and glycerol (20%) was investigated. The nonrecirculating perfusates contained both previously described NaCl-resistant "liver lipase" as well as an apoLp-Gluactivated
lipoprotein lipase
(
LPL
). Crude perfusate lipolytic activity was separated on heparin-Sepharose columns into two enzymatic peaks which were eluted at mean NaCl molarities of 0.75 M (
liver lipase
) and 1.2 M (
LPL
). The liver
LPL
activity was stimulated 7-fold by human apoLp-Glu (half maximal activity at 1.5 microgram/ml) and inhibited by apoLp-Ala, apoLp-Ser, apoLp-GlnI, and apoLP-GlnII. Liver
LPL
was fully inhibited by anti-adipose
LPL
immunoglobulins. The "liver lipase" was not affected by apoLp-Glu (3-34 microgram/ml) or anti-adipose
LPL
immunoglobulins. The data demonstrate the presence in liver perfusates of a
LPL
with properties similar to adipose tissue
lipoprotein lipase
.

The liver of the foetal guinea pig accumulates a large quantity of triacyglycerol late in gestation at the same time that adipose-tissue mass grows at its maximum rate and foetal adipose-tissue
lipoprotein lipase
activity and sensitivity to lipolytic hormones has substantially declined. The fatty acid for triacyglycerol synthesis is not synthesized in the foetal liver and it is unlikely that it originates from any of the foetal tissues. Before the accumulation of hepatic triacyglycerol the concentration of free fatty acids increases in both the umbilical vein and the maternal inferior vena cava. This occurs at a time when the triacyglycerol
lipase
activity in maternal adipose tissue is elevated and the rate of lipolysis, but not of fatty acid esterification, is higher than earlier in gestation or than in the non-pregnant state. It is proposed that the increase in lipolysis in maternal adipose tissue, brought about by an increase in circulating lipolytic hormones, mobilizes fatty acid, which passes to the foetus and is partly stored as hepatic triacylglycerol. The foetal liver effectively removes both long-and short-chain fatty acids from umbilical-vein blood. The rate of placental fatty acid transfer is more than adequate to account for the triacylglycerol accumulation.

Chylomicrons isolated form rat intestinal lymph were incubated with plasma. Protein transfer to chylomicrons, reaction rate with purified
lipoprotein lipase
, and content of
lipase
cofactor were determined. While the overall protein content of chylomicrons was increased 3--4-fold, and the content of
lipase
cofactor increase 4-fold, reaction velocity of the activated particles with
lipoprotein lipase
was increased only 1.3-fold. Maximal rate of hydrolysis was achieved in the presence of much smaller quantities of activator than the lipoprotein particles were capable of binding, and chylomicrons were fully activated for triclyceride hydrolysis in the presence of only 10% plasma for triglyceride concentrations of up to 3 mg/ml. Cofactor protein was not rate-limiting for hydrolysis of triglyceride from chylomicrons. These results are discussed in the light of recent concepts of the regulation of
lipoprotein lipase
activity.

Human milk contains two lipases. One is a
lipoprotein lipase
with properties similar to the lipoprotein lipases that participate in the metabolism of blood plasma lipoproteins in several tissues. This enzyme is present in high activity in the lactating mammary gland where it facilitates the uptake of triglyceride fatty acids from the blood lipoproteins for production of milk lipids in the gland. The high activity of this enzyme in milk probably represent leakage of enzyme from the gland. This
lipase
is not stable at pH below 5 or in intestinal contents and it is unlikely that it participates in intestinal fat digestion. Its activity varies widely between individual milk samples, and there is a high correlation between its activity and the development of hydrolytic rancidity in the milk on storage. The other
lipase
is present in the milk in an inactive form which is activated by bile salts. This
lipase
is present in milk from primates but not in milk from lower animals. Human milk contains enough of this
lipase
to hydrolyze the milk lipids almost completely in less than half an hour at the pH and the bile acid and salt concentrations found in the small intestine of the human infant. It is probable that it increases the efficiency of milk fat absorption. The enzyme has a rather wide substrate specificity and may also act on other lipid substrates than triglycerides. In contrast to pancreatic lipase it hydrolyses all three ester bonds in a triglyceride. This may affect the physical chemistry of the lipids in the intestinal contents as well as their absorption and further metabolism in the musoca.

Human post-heparin plasma contains at least two different triglyceride lipases (TGL). The plasma lipolytic activity has been attributed to extra-hepatic and hepatic origin. Both post-heparin triglyceride lipases were partially purified and characterized. With heparin-Sepharose 4 B affinity chromatography it was possible to partially purify human adipose tissue
lipoprotein lipase
(
LPL
) as well as a
lipase
from human liver. The effects of NaCl, pre-heparin plasma, pH and temperature on these two tissue lipases and plasma lipases were studied in parallel. Antibodies were produced against plasma hepatic triglyceride lipase (plasma H-TGL) that did not cross react with
LPL
. TGL activity of human liver was completely inhibited by antibodies against plasma H-TGL. From these results it appears that human post-heparin plasma contains two
triglyceride lipase
activities which originate from liver and extra-hepatic tissues such as adipose tissue.

The previously demonstrated inhibition of cow's milk
lipoprotein lipase
by apoLp-Ala and the deinhibition by monoglyceride have been studied in more detail. The apoLp-Ala inhibition is reversible by the addition of monoglyceride before or after enzyme additions. Quantities of monoglyceride accumulate during hydrolysis of triglyceride which are adequate to prevent inhibition by added apoLp-Ala. Accelerating reaction rates observed when the substrate contains the apoprotein at levels producing partial inhibition are also explained by monoglyceride production. These effects were observed with both crude preparations of skim milk and highly pruified
lipase
. It is suggested that the generation of monoglyceride may be important in facilitating hydrolysis of triglyceride in lipoproteins containing this inhibitory apolipoprotein.
