In rat adipocytes hormone-sensitive lipase is phosphorylated at two sites termed 'regulatory' and 'basal', in the former case by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase causing an activation of the lipase [(1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81, 3317-3321]. Here, the basal phosphorylation site was found to be phosphorylated by glycogen synthase kinase-4 without any effects on lipase activity, or on the extent of its activation subsequent to phosphorylation of the regulatory site. Glycogen synthase kinase-3, casein kinase-I, and casein kinase-II did not phosphorylate the lipase. Phosphorylase kinase phosphorylated it to a very low extent at a third phosphorylation site not phosphorylated in the fat cell.

Endogenous lipid droplets were prepared by subjecting fat cells to hypotonic shock and Triton X-100 treatment. The endogenous lipid droplets were found to show lipolysis in response to epinephrine, but not to show lipogenesis from glucose in response to insulin. These results indicated that the preparation of endogenous lipid droplets did not contain any intact fat cells capable of insulin-stimulated lipogenesis. Results with these endogenous lipid droplets showed that protein kinase inhibitor inhibited protein kinase-mediated hormone-sensitive lipase activity but did not reduce epinephrine-induced lipolysis. Cyclic AMP and dibutyryl cyclic AMP induced lipolytic activity in the presence of 80 mM KCl and their activities were not inhibited by protein kinase inhibitor. Phospholipase C inhibited epinephrine, cyclic AMP and dibutyryl cyclic AMP-induced lipolysis, but did not affect the lipolytic activity of either the activated or non-activated form of hormone-sensitive lipase. These results indicate the existence of a protein kinase inhibitor-insensitive and phospholipase C-sensitive lipolytic pathway in rat adipocytes.

Adipocytes from spontaneously hypertensive rats demonstrated a blunted lipolytic response to isoproterenol and dibutyryl cyclic AMP. (-)-[3H]Dihydroalprenolol binding was examined in adipocytes from normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats. Increasing concentrations of isoproterenol decreased total (-)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol binding to intact cells from normotensive rats, and the efficacy of competition was decreased in adipocytes from spontaneously hypertensive rats. Scatchard analysis indicated that the number of (-)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol binding sites and the affinity of dihydroalprenolol binding were comparable between normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats. Isoproterenol- and Gpp(NH)p-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was consistently depressed in adipocyte membranes from spontaneously hypertensive rats as compared to normotensive rats. No difference in fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was observed. The blunted lipolytic and cyclic AMP response to isoproterenol in these cells suggest a postreceptor lesion of the lipolytic pathway (possibly the guanine nucleotide regulatory protein) in adipocytes from spontaneously hypertensive rats. The blunted lipolytic response to dibutyryl cyclic AMP suggests defective regulation of lipolytic enzymes at the protein kinase-hormone-sensitive lipase level.

The direct effects of epinephrine and norepinephrine (NE) on lipid mobilization were studied in coho salmon liver slices incubated in vitro. Fatty acid (FA) release from liver slices was measured continuously by pH-stat titration. The pH-stat assay system was validated by simultaneous colorimetric measurement of FA and glycerol release. Liver slices incubated in a glucose-free, low buffering capacity medium and stimulated with NE (10(-6) M) exhibited a one proton (titrimetric) to one FA (colorimetric) release profile. Under similar conditions, NE administration also stimulated glycerol release, in the expected three FA (colorimetric) to one glycerol (colorimetric) ratio. NE stimulated FA release from liver slices in a dose-dependent manner; epinephrine did not have a lipolytic effect. The beta-agonist isoproterenol stimulated FA release, whereas alpha-agonists had no effect. Furthermore, the beta-antagonist propranolol inhibited both NE- and beta-agonist-stimulated FA release. Liver triacylglycerol lipase activity was also stimulated by NE. Propranolol inhibited NE-stimulated lipase activity. These results establish the presence of hormone-sensitive lipase in salmon liver and suggest that NE-stimulated lipid mobilization in salmon liver is mediated through beta-adrenergic pathways.

The effect of dietary ethanol on metabolic fates of glucose and ethanol, and activities of lipoprotein lipase and hormone-sensitive lipase in several tissues of miniature pigs were determined in vitro. Ethanol and glucose were used at similar rates for fatty acid synthesis in liver and brain and CO2 production in liver. Ethanol was preferred over glucose for fatty acid and CO2 production in ileal mucosal cells. Glucose was the preferred substrate for lipogenesis and oxidation to CO2 in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle, and for oxidation to CO2 in brain. Dietary ethanol decreased glucose and ethanol conversion to fatty acids in ileal mucosa and brain, respectively. Dietary ethanol had no effect on the capacity of liver, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle to convert either glucose or ethanol to long-chain fatty acids. The capacity to oxidize ethanol, but not glucose, to CO2 in liver was increased by dietary ethanol. No dietary ethanol effect was observed in other tissues. The capacity for removal of plasma triglycerides (based on lipoprotein lipase activity) tended to increase in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle of pigs fed ethanol. Mobilization of long-chain fatty acids from adipose tissue (based on hormone-sensitive lipase activity), triglyceride concentration in plasma, and percentage of lipid in liver remained unchanged when ethanol was fed. Livers of ethanol-fed pigs, however, were larger than livers of control pigs. Our results indicate that feeding miniature pigs 21-37% of total caloric intake as ethanol causes significant metabolic adaptations of lipid metabolism in liver and ileal mucosa, but not in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, and brain. The ethanol feeding, however, did not cause fatty livers or hyperlipidemia.

Long-chain fatty acid esters of 17 beta-estradiol and other steroid hormones, which are formed in hormone-sensitive tissues, can be regenerated to the free hormone by the action of an esterase present in the cytosol. This esterase has now been examined in bovine placenta cotyledons. Activity towards steroid fatty acid esters was accompanied by activity towards a diacylglycerol analogue and cholesteryl oleate. During purification procedures, the ratio of activities towards the diacylglycerol analogue and estradiol 17 beta-oleate remained approximately constant. Activity towards these two substrates was inhibited by increasing concentrations of HgCl2 and phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride in a parallel manner. Upon treatment with [3H]diisopropyl fluorophosphate, a major labelled species of Mr approx. 84,000 was formed. Activation by ATP and the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase occurred. These properties were very similar to those of the hormone-sensitive lipase of bovine adipose tissue previously reported and run in parallel in this study. A highly purified preparation of this latter enzyme was found to hydrolyse steroid fatty acid esters and relative activities towards such substrates, diacylglycerol analogue and cholesteryl oleate, were similar to the placenta esterase. When the two esterases were phosphorylated with [gamma-32P]ATP, a labelled species of Mr 84,000 was isolated in both cases by use of an antibody raised against purified hormone-sensitive lipase of bovine adipose tissue. It is concluded that hormone-sensitive lipase is very likely the enzyme responsible for hydrolysis of steroid fatty acid esters in bovine placenta and possibly steroid hormone target tissues in general.

The present studies demonstrate that treatment of rat adipocytes with the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) causes a dose-dependent stimulation of phospholipid methyltransferase (PLMT) activity. The stimulatory effect of PMA was not additive with that of isoprenaline or forskolin. The sensitivity of stimulated PLMT activity to inhibition by insulin, however, was decreased in the presence of PMA. The inhibitory effect of a maximal concentration of insulin on PLMT was unchanged in the presence of PMA. In contrast with the effects on PLMT, the lipolytic response of adipocytes to isoprenaline and the anti-lipolytic response to insulin were unaffected by PMA. These data suggest that PLMT is, whereas hormone-sensitive lipase is not, an intracellular target for the action of PMA. The lack of effect of PMA on lipolysis suggests that PLMT and hormone-sensitive lipase can be regulated by separate mechanisms. Furthermore, phorbol esters do not interfere in the regulatory pathway whereby insulin inhibits PMLT or lipolysis.

The primary structure of a region on hormone-sensitive lipase was determined to be: Lys-Thr-Glu-Pro-Met-Arg-Arg-Ser- Val-Ser-Glu-Ala-Ala-Leu-Thr-Gln-Pro-Glu-Gly-Pro-Leu-Gly-Thr-Asp-Ser-Leu-Lys. Ser-8 was the only residue in the intact protein phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. However, Ser-10 also appeared to be present in a phosphorylated form, suggesting that it is a target for a distinct protein kinase in vivo.

The effect of halothane on isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis was determined in isolated rat epididymal fat cells. The maximal lipolytic response (Emax) activated by isoproterenol was 350 +/- 61 nmol of glycerol/10(5) cells/hr with an EC50 of 5.1 X 10(-9) M. When the adipocytes were simultaneously bubbled with 2.5% halothane, the Emax decreased to 158 +/- 43 nmol of glycerol/10(5) cells/hr and the dose response curve for isoproterenol was shifted to the right (EC50 3.5 X 10(-8) M, p less than 0.05). When lipolysis was maximally stimulated with (-)-isoproterenol (10(-6)M), the inhibitory effect of halothane was found to be both dose dependent (IC50 approximately 2.5%, v/v) and reversible following washout. Neither the nonhydrolyzable cAMP analog, 8-(4-chlorophenylthio) adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (2 X 10(-3)M), nor forskolin (10(-6) M) was able to normalize lipolysis in the presence of halothane. The activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) activity by isoproterenol was not different in halothane-exposed cells when compared to unexposed cells. When control adipocytes were exposed to isoproterenol (10(-6) M), there was a 2.5-fold increase in the activity of hormone-sensitive lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) from 0.64 +/- 0.13 to 1.53 +/- 0.32 pkat (pmol/sec) per mg (p less than 0.005, n = 10). However, in the presence of halothane (2.5%, v/v) isoproterenol stimulation of hormone-sensitive lipase was attenuated by 50% to values of 1.06 +/- 0.23 pkat/mg (p less than 0.01, n = 10). Halothane had no direct inhibitory effect on hormone-sensitive lipase since this enzyme's activity was unaffected when homogenates of isoproterenol-stimulated control cells were incubated with halothane. These studies suggest that halothane impairs the activation of hormone-sensitive lipase by cAMP-dependent protein kinase and in this manner inhibits beta-adrenergic-stimulated lipolysis.

To determine the safety and efficacy of a hypertonic solution for hypovolemic resuscitation, we compared the acute and delayed effects of hypertonic sodium lactate solution (514 mOsm) to Ringer's lactate solution (274 mOsm) in a porcine model of hemorrhagic shock. Cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, and cerebral functions were examined in mature swine after their blood volume had been reduced by 40%. Hemorrhage produced significant decreases in blood pressure, cardiac output, and creatinine clearance, which were reversed with resuscitation. Resuscitation with Ringer's lactate solution required significantly more fluid and produced a significantly greater increase in intracranial pressure than did hypertonic sodium lactate solution. HSL produced significant increases in serum sodium and osmolality, which resolved within 48 hours. Hypernatremia and hyperosmolality were not associated with renal or cerebral dysfunction and were corrected through increased sodium excretion, free water intake, and a negative free water clearance.
