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 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.

We have studied the capacity of human neutrophils to release arachidonic acid from diacylglycerol, employing 1-stearoyl-2-[1-14C]arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol and 1-[1-14C]stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol as exogenous substrates. We have found that arachidonic acid is removed from diacylglycerol by the sequential action of two enzymes. First, the sn-1 position is split by 1-diacylglycerol lipase activity, and then, arachidonic acid is released from the resulting 2-monoacylglycerol by a 2-monoacylglycerol lipase. The specific activity of the 2-monoacylglycerol lipase, using 2-[1-14C]arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol as exogenous substrate, was at least 9-fold higher than that of 1-diacylglycerol lipase, indicating that the action of the 1-diacylglycerol lipase is the rate-limiting step in arachidonic acid release from diacylglycerol. Postnuclear supernatants from A23187-treated cells showed a 2.5-fold increase in both lipase activities. The arachidonic acid-releasing diacylglycerol lipase system showed an optimum pH of 4.5 and was not inhibited by EGTA or stimulated by Ca2+, Mg2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, or Co2+. However, arachidonic acid release was inhibited by Hg2+, suggesting the involvement of sulfhydryl groups in catalytic activity. The subcellular distribution of both 1-diacylglycerol lipase and 2-monoacylglycerol lipase activities was examined in resting and A23187-treated human neutrophils by fractionation of postnuclear supernatants on continuous sucrose gradients. Both lipases were localized mainly in the membrane of gelatinase-containing granules, which were resolved from cytosol, plasma membrane, phosphasomes, and specific and azurophilic granules. When neutrophils were stimulated by the calcium ionophore A23187, a drastic shift of the 1-diacylglycerol lipase and 2-monoacylglycerol lipase toward the plasma membrane was detected. This shift was due to fusion of gelatinase-containing granules with the plasma membrane upon neutrophil stimulation. As a result of the membrane fusion process, the capacity to release arachidonic acid from diacylglycerol was increased. This translocation from the membrane of gelatinase-containing granules to the plasma membrane may play an important role in regulating the diacylglycerol level in stimulated human neutrophils.

G protein regulation of human platelet membrane phospholipase A2 activity was investigated at pH 8.0 and 9.0 by studying the effects of the nonhydrolyzable GTP analogue, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S), and of F-/Al3+ ions on arachidonic acid (AA) release. The membrane acted as the source of the enzyme, the substrate, and the G protein. At pH 8.0, 10 and 100 microM GTP gamma S stimulated AA mobilization at least 6-fold. Optimum AA release conditions required 1 mM Ca2+ and 5 mM Mg2+. Nonspecific nucleotide effect was excluded since similar stimulatory effects on AA release were not observed by ATP, GTP, ADP, and NADP. Although at pH 9.0 the GTP gamma S-stimulated AA release was greater than at pH 8.0, it constituted only 26% of the total. At both pH values the effect of F- (10 mM) in the presence of Al3+ (2 microM) was similar to that of GTP gamma S. The G protein inhibitor, guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate), inhibited the GTP gamma S-stimulated AA release by about 80% at pH 8.0 and by 100% at pH 9.0. To determine a possible contribution to AA mobilization by the phospholipase C and diacylglycerol lipase pathway, the effects of neomycin, a phospholipase C inhibitor, were investigated. 100 microM neomycin did not inhibit the GTP gamma S-stimulated AA release at pH 8.0 and only slightly so (17%) at pH 9.0. At pH 8.0 in the presence of Ca2+ the released fatty acids consisted mainly of arachidonic and docosahexaenoic acids (80 and 8%, respectively). GTP gamma S had no effect on the fatty acid profile but only on their quantity. These results provide evidence of G protein regulation of phospholipase A2 activity in isolated platelet membranes.

The mRNA for human hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) was identified using Northern blot analysis and a cDNA-probe for rat HSL. As in the rat, human adipose tissue expresses a single mRNA species of 3.3 kb. Using Western blotting with a polyclonal rabbit antibody towards rat adipose tissue HSL, the corresponding enzyme in human adipose tissue was identified with an apparent 88 kDa polypeptide, thus slightly larger than the rat and bovine 84 kDa, and the mouse and guinea-pig 82 kDa species. Additional evidence for the identification was provided by the inhibition of HSL diacylglycerol lipase activity by the anti-rat HSL antibody, and by NaF, DFP and Hg2+, known inhibitors of HSL. The concentration of the enzyme, as reflected by its activity per g tissue and the specific activity was about two thirds of that in the rat adipose tissue (200 g rats). The identification of the human enzyme protein made it possible to directly demonstrate its phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase, thus extending the previous report regarding activation of the lipase with this kinase and ATP-Mg2+ in human adipose tissue extracts (Khoo, J.C., Aquino, A.A. and Steinberg, D. (1974) J. Clin. Invest. 53, 1124-1131).

In rats fed a fish oil-enriched diet, plasma triacylglycerols were lowered 51%. At the same time there was a mean 45% reduction in Mg2+-dependent phosphatidate phosphohydrolase activity in liver microsomes and a mean 20% decrease in microsomal triacylglycerol (neutral) and diacylglycerol hydrolase activities, but not of diacylglycerol acyltransferase. These observations support the hypothesis that decreases in the activities of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase and of both lipases are involved in the expression of the inhibitory effects of fish oil feeding on hepatic lipoprotein triacylglycerol secretion. Conversely, the feeding of a sucrose-enriched diet resulted in a mean 39% rise in plasma triacylglycerols, a 19% increase in triacylglycerol hydrolase and a mean 45% increase in Mg2+-dependent microsomal phosphohydrolase activity. The effects of the two nutritional interventions on phosphatidate phosphohydrolase activity confirm a key function for this enzyme in triacylglycerol formation.

A purification procedure for rat brain phosphatidylinositol synthetase (PI synthetase; CDP-1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol:myo-inositol 3-phosphatidyltransferase; EC 2.7.8.11) is described. The enzyme was purified 200-250-fold from the homogenate by solubilization with Triton X-100 from microsomal membranes and affinity chromatography on CDP-diacylglycerol-Sepharose. Elution of enzyme activity required the presence of Triton X-100, CDP-diacylglycerol, and either phosphatidylcholine or asolectin. The product that was obtained in 5-10% yield from whole brain and in 70% yield from the microsomal fraction contained three protein bands as determined by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The final preparation contained levels of CDP-diacylglycerol hydrolase and CDP-diacylglycerol: sn-glycero-3-phosphate 3-phosphatidyltransferase activities that were less than 1% of PI synthetase activity. The purified enzyme displayed a pH optimum of 8.5-9.0, required either Mg2+ or Mn2+ and exhibited a Km of 4.6 mM for myo-inositol.

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.

Vitellogenin isolated from laying-hen plasma strongly inhibited chicken adipose-tissue lipoprotein lipase in vitro, but inhibition was reduced or prevented by Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions and by partial dephosphorylation. Plasma from blood collected from laying hens using EDTA as anticoagulant was a potent inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase, but serum from laying hen blood caused inhibition only when dilute or after addition of EDTA. Heparin reduced or abolished the inhibition of lipoprotein lipase by plasma, serum and purified vitellogenin. The results suggest that inhibition of lipoprotein lipase by vitellogenin requires the presence of charged phosphate groups on vitellogenin and an unoccupied heparin-binding site on the enzyme. Neither condition is likely to occur in the laying hen in vivo.

In the present study, we have characterized the properties of both diglyceride lipase (lipoprotein lipase, EC 3.1.1.24) and monoglyceride lipases (acylglycerol lipase, EC 3.1.1.23) in an attempt to assess the potential roles of these two enzymes in the release of arachidonate in activated human platelets. Diglyceride lipase exhibited maximal activity at pH 3.5, whereas monoglyceride lipase showed optimal activity at pH 7.0. Neither of the lipases were inhibited by EDTA or stimulated by Ca2+, Mg2+ or Mn2+. Both enzymes, however, were strongly inhibited by Hg2+ and Cu2+, indicating the involvement of sulfhydryl groups in catalytic activity. This suggestion was further supported by their sensitivity toward sulfhydryl inhibitors, with monoglyceride lipase being more susceptible to inhibition. Both lipases were found to be inhibited to a different degree by a variety of antiplatelet drugs blocking aggregation and arachidonate release. Kinetic studies indicated that dichotomous metabolism of diacylglycerol to monoacylglycerol and to phosphatidic acid could occur concurrently, since the apparent Km values for diglyceride lipase and for diglyceride kinase were comparable. Further studies showed that the specific activity of monoglyceride lipase was at least 100-fold higher than that of diglyceride lipase, indicating that the rate-limiting step in the release of arachidonate was the reaction catalyzed by diglyceride lipase.
