Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) which is associated with very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) separated from the VLDL-LPL complex during hydrolysis of triglyceride in the presence of HDL in vitro. When further VLDL was added to the mixture, the separated LPL became associated with the freshly added VLDL and hydrolyzed its triglyceride. These results suggest that LPL separated from the substrate during catabolism of VLDL may act on other VLDL particles in vivo. 相似文献

Apolipoprotein (apo)A-II is a major high density lipoprotein (HDL) protein; however, its role in lipoprotein metabolism is largely unknown. Transgenic (Tg) mice that overexpress human apoA-II present functional lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency, HDL deficiency, hypertriglyceridemia and, when fed an atherogenic diet, increased non-HDL cholesterol and increased susceptibility to atherosclerosis. In contrast to humans, mice do not present cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity in plasma. To study the in vivo interaction of these two proteins, we crossbred human apoA-II and CETP-Tg mice. CETP x apoA-II-Tg mice fed an atherogenic diet, compared with CETP-Tg mice presented a 2-fold decrease in HDL cholesterol and a quantitatively similar increase in total plasma cholesterol and percentage of free cholesterol, non-HDL cholesterol, and free fatty acids, together with a remarkable 112-fold increase in plasma triglycerides. Plasma triglycerides in CETP x apoA-II-Tg mice were mainly associated with very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), which were also enriched in protein content, and resulted from a combination of higher production rate compared with both of their progenitors and non-Tg control mice, and decreased catabolism compared only with CETP-Tg mice. These results show CETP x apoA-II-Tg mice to be a good model with which to study mechanisms leading to VLDL overproduction and suggest that CETP and, in particular apoA-II, may play a role in the regulation of VLDL metabolism. 相似文献

The very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) has been proposed to play a role in the delivery of fatty acids to peripheral tissues. However, despite reduced adipose tissue mass in VLDLR-deficient (VLDLR(-)(/-)) mice, this has been difficult to substantiate. In the present study, VLDLR-deficient and VLDLR-overexpressing (PVL) mice were cross-bred onto a low density lipoprotein receptor knockout (LDLR(-)(/-)) background to study the VLDLR under conditions of relatively high serum VLDL and triglyceride levels. Absence of the VLDLR resulted in a significant increase in serum triglyceride levels (1.9-fold) when mice were fed a high fat diet. In contrast, overexpression of the VLDLR resulted in a significant decrease in serum triglyceride levels (2.0-fold) under similar conditions. When kept on a chow diet, a period of prolonged fasting revealed a significant increase in serum triglyceride levels in VLDLR(-)(/-); LDLR(-)(/-) mice (2.3-fold) as compared with LDLR(-)(/-) controls. This could not be attributed to altered apolipoprotein B and VLDL triglyceride production rates. Furthermore, no major differences in nascent VLDL triglyceride content were found between VLDLR(-)(/-); LDLR(-)(/-) mice and LDLR(-)(/-) controls. However, the triglyceride content of circulating VLDL of VLDLR(-)(/-); LDLR(-)(/-) mice (63%) was relatively high as compared with LDLR(-)(/-) controls (49%). These observations suggest that the VLDLR affects peripheral uptake of VLDL triglycerides.In conclusion, under conditions of LDLR deficiency in combination with high fat feeding or prolonged fasting, the effect of the VLDLR on VLDL triglyceride metabolism was revealed. 相似文献

Our previous studies, demonstrating ethanol-induced alterations in phosphatidylcholine (PC) synthesis via the phosphatidylethanolamine methyltransferase (PEMT) pathway, implicated a defect in very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion in the pathogenesis of hepatic steatosis. The objective of this study was to determine whether VLDL secretion was reduced by chronic ethanol consumption and whether betaine supplementation, that restores PEMT activity and prevents the development of alcoholic steatosis, could normalize VLDL secretion. The VLDL secretion in rats fed with control, ethanol and the betaine supplemented diets was determined using Triton WR-1339 to inhibit plasma VLDL metabolism. We observed reduced VLDL production rates in chronic alcohol-fed rats compared to control animals. Supplementation of betaine in the ethanol diet increased VLDL production rate to values significantly higher than those observed in the control diet-fed rats. To conclude, chronic ethanol consumption impairs PC generation via the PEMT pathway resulting in diminished VLDL secretion which contributes to the development of hepatic steatosis. By increasing PEMT-mediated PC generation, betaine results in increased fat export from the liver and attenuates the development of alcoholic fatty liver. 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

Elevated plasma triglyceride (TG) and reduced high density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations are prominent features of metabolic syndrome (MS) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Individuals with Tangier disease also have elevated plasma TG concentrations and a near absence of HDL, resulting from mutations in ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), which facilitates the efflux of cellular phospholipid and free cholesterol to assemble with apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), forming nascent HDL particles. In this review, we summarize studies focused on the regulation of hepatic very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) TG production, with particular attention on recent evidence connecting hepatic ABCA1 expression to VLDL, LDL, and HDL metabolism. Silencing ABCA1 in McArdle rat hepatoma cells results in diminished assembly of large (>10nm) nascent HDL particles, diminished PI3 kinase activation, and increased secretion of large, TG-enriched VLDL1 particles. Hepatocyte-specific ABCA1 knockout (HSKO) mice have a similar plasma lipid phenotype as Tangier disease subjects, with a two-fold elevation of plasma VLDL TG, 50% lower LDL, and 80% reduction in HDL concentrations. This lipid phenotype arises from increased hepatic secretion of VLDL1 particles, increased hepatic uptake of plasma LDL by the LDL receptor, elimination of nascent HDL particle assembly by the liver, and hypercatabolism of apoA-I by the kidney. These studies highlight a novel role for hepatic ABCA1 in the metabolism of all three major classes of plasma lipoproteins and provide a metabolic link between elevated TG and reduced HDL levels that are a common feature of Tangier disease, MS, and T2D.

Hydrolysis of VLDL triacylglycerol (TG) by lipoprotein lipase (LpL) is a major step in energy metabolism and VLDL-to-LDL maturation. Most functional LpL is anchored to the vascular endothelium, yet a small amount circulates on TG-rich lipoproteins. As circulating LpL has low catalytic activity, its role in VLDL remodeling is unclear. We use pre-heparin plasma and heparin-sepharose affinity chromatography to isolate VLDL fractions from normolipidemic, hypertriglyceridemic, or type-2 diabetic subjects. LpL is detected only in the heparin-bound fraction. Transient binding to heparin activates this VLDL-associated LpL, which hydrolyses TG, leading to gradual VLDL remodeling into IDL/LDL and HDL-size particles. The products and the timeframe of this remodeling closely resemble VLDL-to-LDL maturation in vivo. Importantly, the VLDL fraction that does not bind heparin is not remodeled. This relatively inert LpL-free VLDL is rich in TG and apoC-III, poor in apoE and apoC-II, shows impaired functionality as a substrate for the exogenous LpL or CETP, and likely has prolonged residence time in blood, which is expected to promote atherogenesis. This non-bound VLDL fraction increases in hypertriglyceridemia and in type-2 diabetes but decreases upon diabetes treatment that restores the glycemic control. In stark contrast, heparin binding by LDL increases in type-2 diabetes triggering pro-atherogenic LDL modifications. Therefore, the effects of heparin binding are associated negatively with atherogenesis for VLDL but positively for LDL. Collectively, the results reveal that binding to glycosaminoglycans initiates VLDL remodeling by circulating LpL, and suggest heparin binding as a marker of VLDL functionality and a readout for treatment of metabolic disorders. 相似文献

VLDL-受体的配体结合结构域结构分析 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
极低密度脂蛋白受体(VLDL-R)的配体结合域具有8个富含半胱氨酸的配体结合重复序列(ligand-binding repeats,LBR),被认为是与配体结合的部位。该受体与含7个类似重复序列的低密度脂蛋白受体(LDL-R)的配体结合特性明显不同。为了明确VLDL-R中8个LBR在配体结合中的作用并探讨结合位点的结构,本研究采用计算机辅助蛋白质结构预测方法,在二级结构分析的基础上,通过同源建模方法预测受体N-端328个氨基酸的配体结合域空间结构,结果显示该区域呈现弧形口袋样结构,其中前3个LBR结构紧凑,呈棒状,负电荷相对集中,推测这一特征结构是配体结合的重要结构基础,结构分析同时表明在LBR5与LBR6之间连接区的弹性结构可以赋予结合位点一定的伸缩性,利于其与不同配体的结合。本研究预测结果首次提出了VLDL-R配体结构域结构及结合位点的结构特征,并与已有的实验结果一致。 相似文献

Human data suggest that reconstituted HDL (rHDL) infusion can induce atherosclerosis regression. Studies in mice indicated that rHDL infusion adversely affects VLDL levels, but this effect is less apparent in humans. This discrepancy may be explained by the fact that humans, in contrast to mice, express cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). The aim of this study was to investigate the role of CETP in the effects of rHDL on VLDL metabolism by using APOE*3-Leiden (E3L) mice, a well-established model for human-like lipoprotein metabolism. At 1 h after injection, rHDL increased plasma VLDL-C and TG in E3L mice, but not in E3L mice cross-bred onto a human CETP background (E3L.CETP mice). This initial raise in VLDL, caused by competition between rHDL and VLDL for LPL-mediated TG hydrolysis, was thus prevented by CETP. At 24 h after injection, rHDL caused a second increase in VLDL-C and TG in E3L mice, whereas rHDL had even decreased VLDL in E3L.CETP mice. This secondary raise in VLDL was due to increased hepatic VLDL-TG production. Collectively, we conclude that CETP protects against the rHDL-induced increase in VLDL. We anticipate that studies evaluating the anti-atherosclerotic efficacy of rHDL in mice that are naturally deficient for CETP should be interpreted with caution, and that treatment of atherogenic dyslipidemia by rHDL should not be combined with agents that aggressively reduce CETP activity. 相似文献

High levels of circulating triglycerides (TGs), or hypertriglyceridemia, are key components of metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and CVD. As TGs are carried by lipoproteins in plasma, hypertriglyceridemia can result from overproduction or lack of clearance of TG-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) such as VLDLs. The primary driver of TRL clearance is TG hydrolysis mediated by LPL. LPL is regulated by numerous TRL protein components, including the cofactor apolipoprotein C-II, but it is not clear how their effects combine to impact TRL hydrolysis across individuals. Using a novel assay designed to mimic human plasma conditions in vitro, we tested the ability of VLDL from 15 normolipidemic donors to act as substrates for human LPL. We found a striking 10-fold difference in hydrolysis rates across individuals when the particles were compared on a protein or a TG basis. While VLDL TG contents moderately correlated with hydrolysis rate, we noticed substantial variations in non-apoB proteins within these particles by MS. The ability of LPL to hydrolyze VLDL TGs did not correlate with apolipoprotein C-II content, but it was strongly inversely correlated with apolipoprotein E (APOE) and, to a lesser extent, apolipoprotein A-II. Addition of exogenous APOE inhibited LPL lipolysis in a dose-dependent manner. The APOE3 and (particularly) APOE4 isoforms were effective at limiting LPL hydrolysis, whereas APOE2 was not. We conclude that APOE on VLDL modulates LPL activity and could be a relevant factor in the pathogenesis of metabolic disease. 相似文献

Effects of fish oil on VLDL triglyceride kinetics in humans 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Dietary n-3 fatty acids (FAs) found in fish oils markedly lower plasma triglyceride (TG) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) levels in both normal and hypertriglyceridemic subjects. The present study examined the mechanism of this effect. Ten subjects with widely different plasma triglyceride levels (82 to 1002 mg/dl) were fed metabolically controlled diets containing 20% fat. The control diet contained a blend of cocoa butter and peanut oil (P/S = 0.8). The test diet contained fish oil (P/S = 1.1) and provided 10-17 g of n-3 FAs per day (depending on calorie intake). After 3 to 5 weeks of each diet, the kinetics of VLDL-TG were determined over a 48-h period after the injection of [3H]glycerol. The fish oil diet reduced the VLDL-TG synthetic rate from 23 +/- 14.3 (mean +/- SD) to 12.6 +/- 7.5 mg/h per kg ideal weight (P less than 0.005) and increased the fractional catabolic rate (FCR) for VLDL-TG from 0.23 +/- 0.12 to 0.38 +/- 0.16 h -1 (P less than 0.005). At the same time, there was a 66% reduction of plasma triglyceride levels, resulting largely from a 78% decrease in VLDL-TG levels (398 +/- 317 to 87 +/- 77 mg/dl; P less than 0.005). There was a strong correlation (r = 0.83; P less than 0.01) between the change in synthetic rates and pool sizes, but there was no correlation (r = 0.24; NS) between changes in FCRs and pool sizes. The VLDL cholesterol: triglyceride ratio increased during the n-3 diet suggesting that smaller VLDL particles were present. These particles would be expected to leave the VLDL fraction more rapidly than larger particles producing a higher FCR. We conclude that the hypotriglyceridemic effect of fish oil appears to be caused primarily by an inhibition of very low density lipoprotein-triglyceride synthesis, but an additional, independent effect upon VLDL catabolism cannot be ruled out. 相似文献

Hepatic triacylglycerol levels are governed through synthesis, degradation and export of this lipid. Here we demonstrate that enforced expression of hepatic lipase in the endoplasmic reticulum in McArdle RH7777 hepatocytes resulted in a significant decrease in the incorporation of fatty acids into cellular triacylglycerol and cholesteryl ester accompanied by attenuation of secretion of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Hepatic lipase-mediated depletion of intracellular lipid storage increased the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α and its target genes and augmented oxidation of fatty acids. These data show that 1) hepatic lipase is active in the endoplasmic reticulum and 2) intracellular hepatic lipase modulates cellular lipid metabolism and lipoprotein secretion. 相似文献

There has been more interest in VLDL-triglyceride (TG) kinetics during the last decade. Unfortunately, robust measurement methods are elaborate and not readily available. Here, we describe a method using unique, ex vivo labeling of the fatty acid moiety of VLDL-TG followed by intravenous bolus infusion in the same person. We found that plasma disappearance of ex vivo-labeled VLDL-TG was comparable to that of in vivo-labeled VLDL-TG and that turnover rates can be safely estimated from the log linear decay of VLDL-TG specific activity. We found minor labeling of the plasma FFA (oleate) pool, which was largely attributable to coinfusion of free [14C]triolein; VLDL-TG did not contribute substantially to the plasma FFA pool. The plasma decay curve of VLDL-TG was not affected by the presence of tracer in the FFA pool, provided that the data from 2 h after the VLDL tracer bolus infusion was used. The FFA contamination problem was circumvented by minor modification of the VLDL-TG tracer preparation. The approach we describe should expand the opportunity to study processes that cannot be assessed if the FFA precursor pool is labeled. This method for VLDL-TG tracer preparation can allow measurement of VLDL turnover, tissue uptake of VLDL-TG, and oxidation of VLDL-TG. 相似文献

Very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) synthesis was studied using suspensions of isolated rat hepatocytes prepared and incubated as described previously (1). These hepatocytes synthesized and secreted VLDL over a 24-hr period, in quantities permitting its isolation, without using carrier, for determining absolute synthesis rates and analysing the peptide pattern. The mean secretion of triglyceride, cholesterol and rat VLDL protein was 410 ± 46.6, 36.6 ± 0.1 and 34.9 ± 5.4 (mean ± SEM, n = 5) μg/g hepatocyte/hr over 24 hr, during which incorporation of 3H-valine into VLDL protein approached linearity. Suitable polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the hepatocytes secreted the peptides found in circulating rat VLDL but with a different proportion of the fast to the slowly migrating ones. 相似文献

In streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats, we previously showed an increased heparin-releasable (luminal) lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity from perfused hearts. To study the effect of this enlarged LPL pool on triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins, we examined the metabolism of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) perfused through control and diabetic hearts. Diabetic rats had elevated TG levels compared with control. However, fasting for 16 h abolished this difference. When the plasma lipoprotein fraction of density <1.006 g/ml from fasted control and diabetic rats was incubated in vitro with purified bovine or rat LPL, VLDL from diabetic animals was hydrolyzed as proficiently as VLDL from control animals. Post-heparin plasma lipolytic activity was comparable in control and diabetic animals. However, perfusion of control and diabetic rats with heparinase indicated that diabetic hearts had larger amounts of LPL bound to heparan sulfate proteoglycan-binding sites. [(3)H]VLDL obtained from control rats, when recirculated through the isolated heart, disappeared at a significantly faster rate from diabetic than from control rat hearts. This increased VLDL-TG hydrolysis was essentially abolished by prior perfusion of the diabetic heart with heparin, implicating LPL in this process. These findings suggest that the enlarged LPL pool in the diabetic heart is present at a functionally relevant location (at the capillary lumen) and is capable of hydrolyzing VLDL. This could increase the delivery of free fatty acid to the heart, and the resultant metabolic changes could induce the subsequent cardiomyopathy that is observed in the chronic diabetic rat. 相似文献

Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) functions as an HDL receptor that promotes the selective uptake of cholesteryl esters (CEs). The physiological role of SR-BI in VLDL metabolism, however, is largely unknown. SR-BI deficiency resulted in elevated VLDL cholesterol levels, both on chow diet and upon challenge with high-cholesterol diets. To specifically elucidate the role of SR-BI in VLDL metabolism, the plasma clearance and hepatic uptake of (125)I-beta-VLDL were studied in SR-BI(+/+) and SR-BI(-/-) mice. At 20 min after injection, 66 +/- 2% of the injected dose was taken up by the liver in SR-BI(+/+) mice, as compared with only 22 +/- 4% (P = 0.0007) in SR-BI(-/-) mice. In vitro studies established that the B(max) of (125)I-beta-VLDL binding was reduced from 469 +/- 30 ng/mg in SR-BI(+/+) hepatocytes to 305 +/- 20 ng/mg (P = 0.01) in SR-BI(-/-) hepatocytes. Both in vivo and in vitro, limited to no selective uptake of CEs from beta-VLDL was found. Interestingly, HDL effectively competed for the association of beta-VLDL in the presence as well as in the absence of SR-BI, indicating a second common recognition site. In conclusion, SR-BI plays an important physiological role in the metabolism of VLDL (remnants). 相似文献
