Apoprotein-free heparin-binding and non-binding chylomicrons were used as substrates to test the effects on lipoprotein lipase activity of (a) chylomicron protein I; (b) the mixture of proteins I, II and apoprotein E and (c) human beta 2-glycoprotein I. No activation of the enzyme was observed with any of those apoproteins. When rats were injected simultaneously with [3H]cholesterol-labelled heparin-binding chylomicrons (containing proteins I and II) and [14C]cholesterol-labelled non-binding chylomicrons, no differences were detected between the rates of removal from circulation of those two types of particles. Clearance of chylomicrons from circulation was accompanied by the incorporation of 3H and 14C labels into the livers at similar rates. It is concluded that proteins I, II and apoprotein E have no effect on the degradation of chylomicrons by lipoprotein lipase and that the hepatic recognition of remnants does not appear to be affected by proteins I and II.

To study the potential relationship between circulating triacylglycerol (TAG) levels and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity in the newborn rat liver, pups from undernourished or normal control mothers were nursed by normal dams, and studied at 0, 1, 15 or 30 days of age. Plasma TAG levels and liver TAG concentration increased more in pups from undernourished mothers than they did in controls. At birth, liver LPL activity was similarly high in both groups but, whereas in controls it decreased progressively after birth, in pups from undernourished mothers it remained stable until 15 days of age. Results suggest that the hypertriglyceridemia present in pups from undernourished mothers may be responsible for the sustained high LPL activity in their liver which may enhance the hepatic uptake of circulating TAG.

Changes in adipose-tissue lipoprotein lipase activity that are independent of protein synthesis were investigated in an incubation system in vitro. Under appropriate conditions at 25 degrees C a progressive increase in the enzyme activity occurs that is energy-dependent. Part of the enzyme is rapidly inactivated when the tissue is incubated with adrenaline or adrenaline plus theophylline. The mechanism of this inactivation appears to be distinct from, and to follow, the activation of the enzyme. A hypothesis is presented to account for the results in terms of an activation of the enzyme during obligatory post-translational processing and a catecholamine-regulated inactivation of the enzyme as an alternative to secretion from the adipocyte.

A Cell

The conditions under which lipoprotein lipase-suppressing mediator is present in serum of endotoxin-treated rats was determined in this study. The suppression of lipoprotein lipase activity in 3T3-L1 cells was used as a bioassay for mediator in serum. Endotoxin (0.1-10 micrograms/ml) and serum from control rats did not suppress lipoprotein lipase activity. Maximum suppression of cell lipoprotein lipase activity (70%) by serum from endotoxic rats required a cell exposure time of 5 h. At the highest dose of endotoxin used (1 mg/100 g), significant suppression was achieved when cells were incubated with 0.5% serum from endotoxic rats (P less than 0.05). Serum obtained 2-3 h after endotoxin injection possessed the maximal ability to suppress lipase activity, but suppressing activity was not present in serum collected 8 h after endotoxin. Rats rendered tolerant to endotoxin by 5 daily injections (0.1 mg/100 g) did not contain detectable levels of mediator in serum after endotoxin injection. The results demonstrate that the presence of lipoprotein lipase activity-suppressing mediator is transitory after in vivo exposure of naive rats to endotoxin, but does not appear in serum of endotoxin tolerant rats.
