We have used an extraction procedure, which released membrane-bound apoB-100, to study the assembly of apoB-48 VLDL (very low density lipoproteins). This procedure released apoB-48, but not integral membrane proteins, from microsomes of McA-RH7777 cells. Upon gradient ultracentrifugation, the extracted apoB-48 migrated in the same position as the dense apoB-48-containing lipoprotein (apoB-48 HDL (high density lipoprotein)) secreted into the medium. Labeling studies with [(3)H]glycerol demonstrated that the HDL-like particle extracted from the microsomes contains both triglycerides and phosphatidylcholine. The estimated molar ratio between triglyceride and phosphatidylcholine was 0.70 +/- 0.09, supporting the possibility that the particle has a neutral lipid core. Pulse-chase experiments indicated that microsomal apoB-48 HDL can either be secreted as apoB-48 HDL or converted to apoB-48 VLDL. These results support the two-step model of VLDL assembly. To determine the size of apoB required to assemble HDL and VLDL, we produced apoB polypeptides of various lengths and followed their ability to assemble VLDL. Small amounts of apoB-40 were associated with VLDL, but most of the nascent chains associated with VLDL ranged from apoB-48 to apoB-100. Thus, efficient VLDL assembly requires apoB chains of at least apoB-48 size. Nascent polypeptides as small as apoB-20 were associated with particles in the HDL density range. Thus, the structural requirements of apoB to form HDL-like first-step particles differ from those to form second-step VLDL. Analysis of proteins in the d < 1.006 g/ml fraction after ultracentrifugation of the luminal content of the cells identified five chaperone proteins: binding protein, protein disulfide isomerase, calcium-binding protein 2, calreticulin, and glucose regulatory protein 94. Thus, intracellular VLDL is associated with a network of chaperones involved in protein folding. Pulse-chase and subcellular fractionation studies showed that apoB-48 VLDL did not accumulate in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. This finding indicates either that the two steps of apoB lipoprotein assembly occur in different compartment or that the assembled VLDL is transferred rapidly out of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

In this study, we tested the hypothesis that two separate pathways, the two-step process and an apolipoprotein B (apoB) size-dependent lipidation process, give rise to different lipoproteins. Expression of apoB-100 and C-terminally truncated forms of apoB-100 in McA-RH7777 cells demonstrated that VLDL particles can be assembled by apoB size-dependent linear lipidation, resulting in particles whose density is inversely related to the size of apoB. This lipidation results in a LDL-VLDL 2 particle containing apoB-100. VLDL 1 is assembled by the two-step process by apoB-48 and larger forms of apoB but not to any significant amount by apoB-41. The major amount of intracellular apoB-80 and apoB-100 banded with a mean density of 1.10 g/ml. Its formation was dependent on the sequence between apoB-72 and apoB-90. This dense particle, which is retained in the cell, possibly by chaperones or association with the microsomal membrane, is a precursor of secreted VLDL 1. The intracellular LDL-VLDL 2 particles formed during size-dependent lipidation appear to be the precursors of intracellular VLDL 1. We propose that the dense apoB-100 intracellular particle is converted to LDL-VLDL 2 by size-dependent lipidation. LDL-VLDL 2 is secreted or converted to VLDL 1 by the uptake of the major amount of triglycerides. 相似文献

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) alpha agonist WY 14,643 increased the secretion of apolipoprotein (apo) B-100, but not that of apoB-48, and decreased triglyceride biosynthesis and secretion from primary rat hepatocytes. These effects resulted in decreased secretion of apoB-100-very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and an increased secretion of apoB-100 on low density lipoproteins/intermediate density lipoproteins. ApoB-48-VLDL was also replaced by more dense particles. The proteasomal inhibitor lactacystin did not influence the recovery of apoB-100 or apoB-48 in primary rat hepatocytes, indicating that co-translational (proteasomal) degradation is of less importance in these cells. Treatment with WY 14,643 made the recovery of apoB-100 sensitive to lactacystin, most likely reflecting the decreased biosynthesis of triglycerides. The PPAR alpha agonist induced a significant increase in the accumulation of pulse-labeled apoB-100 even after a short pulse (2-5 min). There was also an increase in apoB-100 nascent polypeptides, indicating that the co-translational degradation of apoB-100 was inhibited. However, a minor influence on an early posttranslation degradation cannot be excluded. This decreased co-translational degradation of apoB-100 explained the increased secretion of the protein. The levels of apoB-48 remained unchanged during these pulse-chase experiments, and albumin production was not affected, indicating a specific effect of PPAR alpha agonists on the co-translational degradation of apoB-100. These findings explain the difference in the rate of secretion of the two apoB proteins seen after PPAR alpha activation. PPAR alpha agonists increased the expression and biosynthesis of liver fatty acid-binding protein (LFABP). Increased expression of LFABP by transfection of McA-RH7777 cells increased the secretion of apoB-100, decreased triglyceride biosynthesis and secretion, and increased PPAR alpha mRNA levels. These findings suggest that PPAR alpha and LFABP could interact to amplify the effect of endogenous PPAR alpha agonists on the assembly of VLDL. 相似文献

The relative importance of each core lipid in the assembly and secretion of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) has been of interest over the past decade. The isolation of genes encoding diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) and acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferases (ACAT1 and ACAT2) provided the opportunity to investigate the effects of isolated increases in triglycerides (TG) or cholesteryl esters (CE) on apolipoprotein B (apoB) lipoprotein biogenesis. Overexpression of human DGAT1 in rat hepatoma McA-RH7777 cells resulted in increased synthesis, cellular accumulation, and secretion of TG. These effects were associated with decreased intracellular degradation and increased secretion of newly synthesized apoB as VLDL. Similarly, overexpression of human ACAT1 or ACAT2 in McA-RH7777 cells resulted in increased synthesis, cellular accumulation, and secretion of CE. This led to decreased intracellular degradation and increased secretion of VLDL apoB. Overexpression of ACAT2 had a significantly greater impact upon assembly and secretion of VLDL from liver cells than did overexpression of ACAT1. The addition of oleic acid (OA) to media resulted in a further increase in VLDL secretion from cells expressing DGAT1, ACAT1, or ACAT2. VLDL secreted from DGAT1-expressing cells incubated in OA had a higher TG:CE ratio than VLDL secreted from ACAT1- and ACAT2-expressing cells treated with OA. These studies indicate that increasing DGAT1, ACAT1, or ACAT2 expression in McA-RH7777 cells stimulates the assembly and secretion of VLDL from liver cells and that the core composition of the secreted VLDL reflects the enzymatic activity that is elevated. 相似文献

We examined the relationship between the size of human apolipoprotein (apo) B and the formation and secretion of apoB-containing lipoprotein particles. Stable transformants of the rat hepatoma cell line McA-RH7777 harboring a variety of human apoB cDNA constructs were established, and these produced carboxyl-terminally truncated apoB proteins (apoB18, -B23, -B28, -B31, -B48, and -B53). Immunoblotting of apoB proteins secreted into the culture medium and fractionated by equilibrium density ultracentrifugation revealed that each of the truncated apoB species was secreted from the cells. The peak densities of the apoB-containing particles decreased as the length of the apoB proteins increased. Apolipoproteins B18 and B23 appeared at the bottom of the salt gradient (d = 1.23 g/ml), whereas particles containing apoB28, -B31, -B37, -B48, and -B53 exhibited progressive decreases in density. The density distribution of secreted apolipoproteins was not affected by the expression or secretion of these recombinant apoB species. As determined by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis, apoB28, -B31, -B37, -B48, and -B53 formed their own discrete particles, and there was a direct correlation between the size of the particles and the length of the apoB species. The efficiency and rate of secretion of these truncated forms of apoB were studied by measuring the decrease of immunoprecipitated 35S-labeled apoB proteins in the cells and their accumulation in the medium. Proteins corresponding to apoB28 or larger were rapidly and efficiently secreted, whereas apoB18 and apoB23 were secreted much more slowly. These data imply that the size of these truncated apoB forms governs the lipid content of the apoB-containing lipoproteins formed as well as the kinetics of secretion. 相似文献

We have previously identified a deletion mutant of human apoB [apoB (Thr26_Tyr27del)] in a subject with primary hypobetalipoproteinemia. The present study determined the effect of Thr26_Tyr27del mutation on apoB secretion using transfected McA-RH7777 cells. Transient or stable transfection of apoB-48 containing the Thr26_Tyr27del mutation showed drastically reduced secretion of the mutant as compared to wild-type apoB-48. No lipoproteins containing the mutant apoB-48 were secreted into the medium. Incubation of transfected cells in a lipid-rich medium in the presence of cycloheximide showed rapid turnover of cell-associated mutant apoB-48 as compared to that of wild-type apoB-48. Immunofluorescence experiments showed that the mutant apoB-48 was mostly localized in the endoplasmic reticulum. Treatment with the proteasomal inhibitor MG132 markedly attenuated the turnover of cell-associated mutant apoB-48, whereas treatment with inhibitors of autophagosomal/lysosomal function (e.g. 3-MA or ammonium chloride) had no effect. Taken together, these results indicated that the defective secretion of the Thr26_Tyr27del mutant was associated with increased intracellular degradation of apoB through the proteasome-dependent pathway. 相似文献

We have studied the consequences of alterations to hepatic apoB mRNA editing on the biosynthesis and intracellular distribution of newly synthesized apoB variants together with their mass distribution in nascent Golgi very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Radiolabeled liver membrane fractions were prepared from control or hypothyroid animals and separated by discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation. Hepatic apoB-100 synthesis in these groups accounted for 93-100% of total newly synthesized apoB species of Golgi fractions recovered from the sucrose gradients (G1 and G2). The analogous fractions isolated from the livers of hyperthyroid (treated with 3,3',5-triiodo-L-thyronine, T3) animals revealed that newly synthesized apoB-100 accounted for only 46 +/- 10% (G1) and 24 +/- 11% (G2), respectively, of total newly synthesized apoB. ApoB-100 mass in nascent Golgi VLDL from control and hypothyroid G1 fractions represented 70-78% total apoB as determined by Western blot analysis. By contrast, Golgi VLDL from hyperthyroid animals contained predominantly (greater than 78%) apoB-48 as the apoB species. Electron microscopy revealed that the morphology and size distribution of hyperthyroid G1 VLDL were similar to particles isolated from control animals. Thus, despite a profound reduction in the proportion of apoB-100 mRNA species containing an unmodified codon (CAA, B-GLN) at position 2153 in hyperthyroid animals (6 +/- 1% vs 50-61% in control and hypothyroid animals) apoB-100 biosynthesis was detectable in a defined membrane fraction isolated by discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation. However, no apoB-100 synthesis was detectable in liver samples prepared by Polytron disruption in Triton-containing buffers. These data suggest that effective hepatic VLDL assembly and secretion in the T3-treated rat continues despite a profound reduction in apoB-100 biosynthesis and implies that apoB-48 contains the requisite domains to direct this process, a situation analogous to that in the intestine. 相似文献

Glucosamine-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was recently shown to specifically reduce apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) secretion by enhancing the proteasomal degradation of apoB-100. Here, we examined the mechanisms linking glucosamine-induced ER stress and apoB-lipoprotein biogenesis. Trypsin sensitivity studies suggested glucosamine-induced changes in apoB-100 conformation. Endoglycosidase H studies of newly synthesized apoB-100 revealed glucosamine induced N-linked glycosylation defects resulting in reduced apoB-100 secretion. We also examined glucosamine-induced changes in VLDL assembly and secretion. A dose-dependent (1-10 mM glucosamine) reduction was observed in VLDL-apoB-100 secretion in primary hepatocytes (24.2-67.3%) and rat McA-RH7777 cells (23.2-89.5%). Glucosamine also inhibited the assembly of larger VLDL-, LDL-, and intermediate density lipoprotein-apoB-100 but did not affect smaller HDL-sized apoB-100 particles. Glucosamine treatment during the chase period (posttranslational) led to a 24% reduction in apoB-100 secretion (P < 0.01; n = 4) and promoted post-ER apoB degradation. However, the contribution of post-ER apoB-100 degradation appeared to be quantitatively minor. Interestingly, the glucosamine-induced posttranslational reduction in apoB-100 secretion could be partially prevented by treatment with desferrioxamine or vitamin E. Together, these data suggest that cotranslational glucosamine treatment may cause defects in apoB-100 N-linked glycosylation and folding, resulting in enhanced proteasomal degradation. Posttranslationally, glucosamine may interfere with the assembly process of apoB lipoproteins, leading to post-ER degradation via nonproteasomal pathways. 相似文献

Rat and human very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were fractionated by zonal ultracentrifugation, yielding sharply defined fractions with narrow sedimentation limits. Sedimentation coefficients for the individual fractions were determined at two densities with the analytical ultracentrifuge, and the results were analyzed to yield buoyant densities and molecular weights for the particles in each fraction. For the rat lipoproteins, the weight concentrations of triglycerides, cholesterol, phospholipid, and protein were determined for each fraction, and their molar concentrations of apolipoprotein B were measured with a radioimmunoassay. For the human lipoproteins the corresponding values were taken from Patsch et al. (Patsch, W., J. R. Patsch, G. M. Kostner, S. Sailer, and H. Braunsteiner. 1978. Isolation of subfractions of human very low density lipoproteins by zonal ultracentrifugation. J. Biol. Chem. 253:4911-4915). From these data, a ratio of the number of apoB peptides to the number of lipoprotein particles was calculated for each fraction. This ratio was close to 1 for all VLDL fractions, ranging in particle diameter from about 40 to 80 mm and 30 to 50 mm, respectively, for rat and human VLDL. The majority rat VLDL contain B-48 rather than B-100 as their (single) apoB peptide. Based on these data, we proposed that only a single copy of B-48 is required for VLDL assembly in rat liver, unless nascent hepatic VLDL contain additional apoB peptides which are uniformly lost from the plasma VLDL particles when they are analyzed. 相似文献

Previous studies with McA-RH7777 cells showed a 15-20-min temporal delay in the oleate treatment-induced assembly of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) after apolipoprotein (apo) B100 translation, suggesting a post-translational process. Here, we determined whether the post-translational assembly of apoB100-VLDL occurred within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or in post-ER compartments using biochemical and microscopic techniques. At steady state, apoB100 distributed throughout ER and Golgi, which were fractionated by Nycodenz gradient centrifugation. Pulse-chase experiments showed that it took about 20 min for newly synthesized apoB100 to exit the ER and to accumulate in the cis/medial Golgi. At the end of a subsequent 20-min chase, a small fraction of apoB100 accumulated in the distal Golgi, and a large amount of apoB100 was secreted into the medium as VLDL. VLDL was not detected either in the lumen of ER or in that of cis/medial Golgi where apoB100 was membrane-associated and sensitive to endoglycosidase H treatment. In contrast, VLDL particles were found in the lumen of the distal Golgi where apoB100 was resistant to endoglycosidase H. Formation of lumenal VLDL almost coincided with the appearance of VLDL in the medium, suggesting that the site of VLDL assembly is proximal to the site of secretion. When microsomal triglyceride transfer protein activity was inactivated after apoB had exited the ER, VLDL formation in the distal Golgi and its subsequent secretion was unaffected. Lipid analysis by tandem mass spectrometry showed that oleate treatment increased the masses of membrane phosphatidylcholine (by 68%) and phosphatidylethanolamine (by 27%) and altered the membrane phospholipid profiles of ER and Golgi. Taken together, these results suggest that VLDL assembly in McA-RH7777 cells takes place in compartments at the distal end of the secretory pathway. 相似文献

Apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) is a potent regulator of intravascular triglyceride (TG) metabolism, yet its plasma concentration is very low compared with that of other apolipoproteins. To examine the basis for its low plasma concentration, the secretion efficiency of apoA-V was measured in stably transfected McA-RH7777 rat hepatoma cells. Pulse-chase experiments revealed that only ~20% of newly synthesized apoA-V is secreted into culture medium within 3 h postsynthesis and that ~65% undergoes presecretory turnover; similar results were obtained with transfected nonhepatic Chinese hamster ovary cells. ApoA-V secreted by McA-RH7777 cells was not associated with cell surface heparin-competable binding sites. When stably transfected McA-RH7777 cells were treated with oleic acid, the resulting increase in TG synthesis caused a reduction in apoA-V secretion, a reciprocal increase in cell-associated apoA-V, and movement of apoA-V onto cytosolic lipid droplets. In a stably transfected doxycycline-inducible McA-RH7777 cell line, apoA-V expression inhibited TG secretion by ~50%, increased cellular TG, and reduced Z-average VLDL(1) particle diameter from 81 to 67 nm; however, no impact on apoB secretion was observed. These data demonstrate that apoA-V inefficiently traffics within the secretory pathway, that its intracellular itinerary can be regulated by changes in cellular TG accumulation, and that apoA-V synthesis can modulate VLDL TG mobilization and secretion. 相似文献

Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is required for the assembly and secretion of apolipoprotein (apo) B-containing lipoproteins. Previously, we demonstrated that the N-terminal 1,000 residues of apoB (apoB:1000) are necessary for the initiation of apoB-containing lipoprotein assembly in rat hepatoma McA-RH7777 cells and that these particles are phospholipid (PL) rich. To determine if the PL transfer activity of MTP is sufficient for the assembly and secretion of primordial apoB:1000-containing lipoproteins, we employed microRNA-based short hairpin RNAs (miR-shRNAs) to silence Mttp gene expression in parental and apoB:1000-expressing McA-RH7777 cells. This approach led to 98% reduction in MTP protein levels in both cell types. Metabolic labeling studies demonstrated a drastic 90–95% decrease in the secretion of rat endogenous apoB100-containing lipoproteins in MTP-deficient McA-RH7777 cells compared with cells transfected with negative control miR-shRNA. A similar reduction was observed in the secretion of rat endogenous apoB48 under the experimental conditions employed. In contrast, MTP absence had no significant effect on the synthesis, lipidation, and secretion of human apoB:1000-containing particles. These results provide strong evidence in support of the concept that in McA-RH7777 cells, acquisition of PL by apoB:1000 and initiation of apoB-containing lipoprotein assembly, a process distinct from the conventional first-step assembly of HDL-sized apoB-containing particles, do not require MTP. This study indicates that, in hepatocytes, a factor(s) other than MTP mediates the formation of the PL-rich primordial apoB:1000-containing initiation complex. 相似文献

Bile salts (BS) inhibit the secretion of apolipoprotein B (apoB) and triacylglycerol (TG) in primary rat, mouse and human hepatocytes and in mice in vivo. We investigated whether lipidation of apoB into a lipoprotein particle is required for this inhibitory action of BS. The sodium/taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (Ntcp) was co-expressed in McArdle-RH7777 (McA-RH7777) cells stably expressing the full-length human apoB100 (h-apoB100, secreted as TG-rich lipoprotein particles) or carboxyl-truncated human apoB18 (h-apoB18, secreted in lipid-free form). The doubly transfected cell lines (h-apoB/r-Ntcp) effectively accumulated taurocholic acid (TC). TC incubation decreased the secretion of endogenous rat apoB100 (-50%) and h-apoB18 (-35%), but did not affect secretion of rat apoA-I. Pulse-chase experiments (35S-methionine) indicated that the impaired secretion of radiolabeled h-apoB18 and h-apoB100 was associated with accelerated intracellular degradation. The calpain protease inhibitor N-acetyl-leucyl-leucyl-norleucinal (ALLN) partially inhibited intracellular apoB degradation but did not affect the amount of either h-apoB18 or h-apoB100 secreted into the medium, indicating that inhibition of apoB secretion by TC is not due to calpain-dependent proteasomal degradation. We conclude that TC does not inhibit apoB secretion by interference with its lipidation, but rather involves a mechanism dependent on the N-terminal end of apoB. 相似文献

Apolipoprotein (apo) C-III plays a regulatory role in VLDL lipolysis and clearance. In this study, we determined a potential intracellular role of apoC-III in hepatic VLDL assembly and secretion. Stable expression of recombinant apoC-III in McA-RH7777 cells resulted in increased secretion efficiency of VLDL-associated triacylglycerol (TAG) and apoB-100 in a gene-dosage-dependent manner. The stimulatory effect of apoC-III on TAG secretion was manifested only when cells were cultured under lipid-rich (i.e., media supplemented with exogenous oleate) but not lipid-poor conditions. The stimulated TAG secretion was accompanied by increased secretion of apoB-100 and apoB-48 as VLDL1. Expression of apoC-III also increased mRNA and activity of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP). Pulse-chase experiments showed that apoC-III expression promoted VLDL1 secretion even under conditions where the MTP activity was inhibited immediately after the formation of lipid-poor apoB-100 particles, suggesting an involvement of apoC-III in the second-step VLDL assembly process. Consistent with this notion, the newly synthesized apoC-III was predominantly associated with TAG within the microsomal lumen that resembled lipid precursors of VLDL. Introducing an Ala23-to-Thr mutation into apoC-III, a naturally occurring mutation originally identified in two Mayan Indian subjects with hypotriglyceridemia, abolished the ability of apoC-III to stimulate VLDL secretion from transfected cells. Thus, expression of apoC-III in McA-RH7777 cells enhances hepatic TAG-rich VLDL assembly and secretion under lipid-rich conditions. 相似文献

We have designed an in vitro expression system for human apolipoprotein (apo) B. A full-length human apoB minigene was constructed from cDNA and genomic apoB clones and inserted into a vector where its expression was directed by the cytomegalovirus promoter. The apoB minigene was expressed in a rat hepatoma cell line, McA-RH7777. Human apoB100, which is the ligand for the low density lipoprotein receptor, was secreted in low density lipoprotein or very low density lipoprotein particles, depending on the composition of the medium. A protein with the mobility of apoB48, a structurally related protein involved in cholesterol metabolism, was also produced from the human apoB minigene. This in vitro expression system for human apoB will enable investigators to identify which domains of this protein are involved in processes such as lipoprotein assembly and secretion. This system should also allow investigators to identify definitively the domain in apoB that enables the protein to bind to the low density lipoprotein receptor. 相似文献

Regulated biosynthesis and divergent metabolism of three forms of hepatic apolipoprotein B in the rat 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Studies using rat livers perfused with recycled, serum-containing medium plus [3H]leucine revealed that secreted VLDL contain three forms of apolipoprotein B (apoB), B-48, B-95, and B-100, all synthesized by the liver. The B-48/(B-95 + B-100) [3H]leucine incorporation ratio ranged from 0.22 to 3.25 with livers of rats fed different diets, and the ratio was positively correlated with the triglyceride secretion rate in most of the livers. Generally, as more triglyceride was secreted, a greater proportion was packaged with B-48, which is the apoB form most rapidly cleared from the circulation. Together, these findings suggest a mechanism for regulating plasma triglyceride levels. [3H]Leucine incorporation into apoA-I also was positively correlated with the triglyceride secretion rate. Secretion of newly synthesized B-48 was delayed relative to all other apolipoproteins. There was little segregation of any of the three apoB forms into any of five subfractions of secreted VLDL separated on the basis of Sf value; only the smallest VLDL (Sf 20-100) were slightly enriched in B-95 and B-100. Less than 5% of newly synthesized apoB appeared in perfusate LDL. The B-100/B-95 [3H]leucine incorporation ratio was 3.3 with perfused livers of fed rats but only 1.6 in post-surgical, relatively fasted rats in vivo, suggesting physiologic regulation also of the relative amounts of the two large apoBs produced. With recycled serum-free perfusate, as opposed to serum-containing medium, there was hepatic reuptake of nascent VLDL, indicated by the reuptake of newly synthesized apoE and all three forms of apoB, and not other apolipoproteins. Divergent metabolism of B-100 and B-95 in the rat was evident from the following results: a) B-95 disappeared more rapidly from recycled, serum-free liver perfusate; b) B-100 disappeared more rapidly from the circulation in vivo; c) plasma lipoprotein fractions of increasing density between d less than 1.019 and d 1.072 g/ml contained increasing proportions of B-95 over B-100. In summary, these results show that hepatic VLDL production in the rat involves the biosynthesis of three forms of apoB, that the relative amounts produced are regulated by physiologic variables, and that there is divergent metabolism of the VLDL particles into which these different apoB forms, either individually or in combination, become incorporated. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated that the N-terminal 1000 amino acid residues of human apolipoprotein (apo) B (designated apoB:1000) are competent to fold into a three-sided lipovitellin-like lipid binding cavity to form the apoB "lipid pocket" without a structural requirement for microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP). Our results established that this primordial apoB-containing particle is phospholipid-rich (Manchekar, M., Richardson, P. E., Forte, T. M., Datta, G., Segrest, J. P., and Dashti, N. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 39757-39766). In this study we have investigated the putative functional role of MTP in the initial lipidation of apoB:1000 in stable transformants of McA-RH7777 cells. Inhibition of MTP lipid transfer activity by 0.1 microm BMS-197636 and 5, 10, and 20 microm of BMS-200150 had no detectable effect on the synthesis, lipidation, and secretion of apoB:1000-containing particles. Under identical experimental conditions, the synthesis, lipidation, and secretion of endogenous apoB100-containing particles in HepG2 and parental untransfected McA-RH7777 cells were inhibited by 86-94%. BMS-200150 at 40 microm nearly abolished the secretion of endogenous apoB100-containing particles in HepG2 and parental McA-RH cells but caused only 15-20% inhibition in the secretion of apoB: 1000-containing particles. This modest decrease was attributable to the nonspecific effect of a high concentration of this compound on hepatic protein synthesis, as reflected in a similar (20-25%) reduction in albumin secretion. Suppression of MTP gene expression in stable transformants of McA-RH7777 cells by micro-interfering RNA led to 60-70% decrease in MTP mRNA and protein levels, but it had no detectable effect on the secretion of apoB:1000. Our results provide a compelling argument that the initial addition of phospholipids to apoB:1000 and initiation of apoB-containing lipoprotein assembly occur independently of MTP lipid transfer activity. 相似文献

To examine the role of apolipoprotein A-IV (apoA-IV) in the intracellular trafficking and secretion of apoB, COS cells were cotransfected with microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), apoB-41 (amino terminal 41% of apoB), and either native apoA-IV or apoA-IV modified with the carboxy-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention signal, KDEL (apoA-IV-KDEL). As expected, apoA-IV-KDEL was inefficiently secreted relative to native apoA-IV. Coexpression of apoB-41 with apoA-IV-KDEL reduced the secretion of apoB-41 by approximately 80%. The apoA-IV-KDEL effect was specific, as neither KDEL-modified forms of human serum albumin or apoA-I affected apoB-41 secretion. Similar results were observed in McA-RH7777 rat hepatoma cells, which express endogenous MTP. The full inhibitory effect of apoA-IV-KDEL on apoB secretion was observed only for forms of apoB containing a minimum of the amino-terminal 25% of the protein (apoB-25). However, apoA-IV-KDEL inhibited the secretion of both lipid-associated and lipid-poor forms of apoB-25. Dual-label immunofluorescence microscopy of cells transfected with native apoA-IV and apoB-25 revealed that both apolipoproteins were localized to the ER and Golgi, as expected. However, when apoA-IV-KDEL was cotransfected with apoB-25, both proteins localized primarily to the ER. These data suggest that apoA-IV may physically interact with apoB in the secretory pathway, perhaps reflecting a role in modulating the process of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein assembly and secretion. 相似文献

Fatty acids of varying lengths and saturation differentially affect plasma apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) levels. To identify mechanisms at the level of production, rat hepatoma cells, McA-RH7777, were incubated with [(35)S]methionine and either fatty acid-BSA complexes or BSA alone. There were increases in labeled apoB-100 secretion with saturated fatty acids palmitic and myristic (MA) (153 +/- 20% and 165 +/- 11%, respectively, relative to BSA). Incubation with polyunsaturated docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) decreased secretion to 26 +/- 2.0%, while monounsaturated oleic acid (OA) did not change it. In pulse-chase studies, MA treatment resulted in reduced apoB-100 degradation, in agreement with its promotion of secretion. In triglyceride (TG) studies, synthesis was stimulated equally by OA, MA, and DHA, but TG secretion was relatively decreased with MA and DHA. With OA, the majority of newly secreted apoB100-lipoproteins was d < or = 1.006, but with MA, they were much denser (1.063 < d). Furthermore, the relative recruitment of newly synthesized TG to lipoproteins was impaired with MA. We conclude that mechanisms for effects of specific dietary fatty acids on plasma lipoprotein levels may include changes in hepatic production. In turn, hepatic production may be regulated by specific fatty acids at the steps of apoB-100 degradation and the recruitment of nascent TG to lipoprotein particles. 相似文献
