In contrast to the complete absence of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mRNA in adult rat liver, fetal and neonatal rat liver contain substantial amounts of LPL mRNA, which is translated in active LPL protein as can be deduced from the presence of LPL activity in this organ. At this neonatal stage, both the relative abundance of LPL mRNA and LPL activity increased with starvation. During the suckling period, LPL mRNA and LPL activity gradually decreased until both parameters were undetectable. While the administration of L-thyroxine or hydrocortisone enhanced the disappearance of LPL mRNA, induced hypothyroidism delayed its disappearance. In adult animals induced hypothyroidism could not reactivate LPL mRNA production in the liver. The data presented suggest that liver LPL production responds to changes in the nutritional state and becomes extinguished during development, in a fashion reminiscent to the extinction of alpha-fetoprotein. This extinction of LPL gene expression is influenced by hormonal factors.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008071 Lipoprotein Lipase An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. The enzyme hydrolyzes triacylglycerols in chylomicrons, very-low-density lipoproteins, low-density lipoproteins, and diacylglycerols. It occurs on capillary endothelial surfaces, especially in mammary, muscle, and adipose tissue. Genetic deficiency of the enzyme causes familial hyperlipoproteinemia Type I.

D008074 Lipoproteins Lipid-protein complexes involved in the transportation and metabolism of lipids in the body. They are spherical particles consisting of a hydrophobic core of TRIGLYCERIDES and CHOLESTEROL ESTERS surrounded by a layer of hydrophilic free CHOLESTEROL; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; and APOLIPOPROTEINS. Lipoproteins are classified by their varying buoyant density and sizes. Circulating Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein,Lipoproteins, Circulating

D013974 Thyroxine The major hormone derived from the thyroid gland. Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.
