Characterization of mono-, di- and triacylglycerol lipase activities in the isolated rat heart. 1986

H Stam, and S Broekhoven-Schokker, and W C Hülsmann

The lipolytic activities of heart tissue towards full and partial acylglycerols were characterized. Tissue lysosomal, acid lipase activity (pH 4.8) was inhibited by high salt, protamine sulfate, NaF, MgATP, Triton X-100, serum and the esterase-inhibitor diethylparanitrophenyl phosphate. The tissue neutral triacylglycerol lipase activity (pH 7.4) was recovered predominantly in the microsomal and soluble fractions and exhibited essentially identical properties towards activators (serum, apolipoprotein C-II) and reagents (NaCl, Triton X-100, NaF, MgATP and diethylparanitrophenyl phosphate) relative to vascular lipoprotein lipase, except for protamine sulfate which increased the serum-stimulated neutral triacylglycerol lipase activity. Triacylglycerol hydrolysis at acid pH was incomplete, whereas at neutral pH full hydrolysis occurred. Myocardial mono- and diacylglycerol lipase activities, with pH optima of 8.0 and 7.4, respectively, were recovered in the microsomal fraction. They differed immunologically from neutral lipase and lipoprotein lipase and did not bind to heparin-Sepharose 4B. They were kinetically different, partially inhibited by NaCl and differentially affected by protamine sulfate. NaF, Triton X-100 and diethylparanitrophenyl phosphate. Our data suggest that endogenous hydrolytic activity against full and partial acylglycerols is mediated by separate enzymes.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007700	Kinetics	The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008049	Lipase	An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. It is produced by glands on the tongue and by the pancreas and initiates the digestion of dietary fats. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.1.1.3.

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.
