Project description:To test if HIF pathway is regulated by lipids in zebrafish larvae, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify induced genes upon lalistat treatment. Lalistat is a specific inhibitor for lysosomal acid lipase (LAL), which is required for break down triglyceride or cholesterol ester to release free fatty acids.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by the accumulation of lipid droplets (LD) in hepatocytes. NAFLD development and progression is associated with an increase in hepatic cholesterol and decreased autophagy and lipophagy flux. Previous studies have shown that the expression of lysosomal acid lipase (gene=LIPA, protein=LAL), which can hydrolyze both triglyceride and cholesteryl esters, is inversely correlated with the severity of NAFLD. In addition, ablation of LAL activity results in profound NAFLD. Based on this, we predicted that overexpressing LIPA in the livers of mice fed a Western diet (FPC) would prevent the development of NAFLD. As expected, mice fed the FPC diet exhibited numerous markers of NAFLD including hepatomegaly, lipid accumulation, and inflammation. Unexpectedly, LAL overexpression did not attenuate steatosis and had only minor effects on neutral lipid composition. However, LAL overexpression exacerbated inflammatory gene expression and infiltration of immune cells in mice fed the FPC diet. LAL overexpression also resulted in abnormal phagosome accumulation and lysosomal lipid accumulation depending upon the dietary treatment. Hepatic overexpression of LAL drove immune cell infiltration and inflammation and did not attenuate the development of NAFLD suggesting that targeting LAL expression is not a viable route to treat NAFLD.

Project description:Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the key enzyme of lysosomal lipid hydrolysis, which degrades cholesteryl esters (CE), triacylglycerols (TG), diacylglycerols (DG), and retinyl esters. The role of LAL in various cellular processes has mostly been studied in LAL-deficient (Lal-/-) mice, which share phenotypical characteristics with humans suffering from LAL deficiency. In vitro, the cell-specific functions of LAL have been commonly investigated by using the LAL inhibitors Lalistat-1 (L1) and Lalistat-2 (L2). Here, we show that pharmacological LAL inhibition but not genetic loss of LAL impairs isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis and neutral TG hydrolase (TGH) and CE hydrolase (CEH) activities in mature adipocytes, indicating that L1 and L2 inhibit other lipid hydrolases apart from LAL. Since adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) are the major enzymes that degrade cytosolic TG and CE, respectively, at neutral pH, we hypothesized that L1 and L2 also inhibit ATGL and/or HSL through off-target effects. In fact, both inhibitors drastically reduced neutral CEH activity in cells overexpressing mouse and human HSL and neutral TGH activity in cells overexpressing mouse and human ATGL, albeit to a lesser extent. By performing serine hydrolase-specific activity-based labeling in combination with quantitative proteomics, we confirmed that L2 inhibits HSL and other lipid hydrolases, whereas L1 treatment results in less pronounced inhibition of neutral lipid hydrolases. These results demonstrate that commonly used concentrations of L2 (and L1) are not suitable for investigating the role of LAL-specific lipolysis in lysosomal function, signaling pathways, and autophagy.

Project description:Objective: Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the only enzyme known to hydrolyze cholesteryl esters (CE) and triacylglycerols in lysosomes at an acidic pH. Despite the importance of lysosomal hydrolysis in skeletal muscle (SM), research in this area is limited. We hypothesized that LAL may play an important role in SM development, function, and metabolism as a result of lipid and/or carbohydrate metabolism disruptions. Results: Mice with systemic LAL deficiency (Lal-/-) had markedly lower SM mass, cross-sectional area, and Feret diameter despite unchanged proteolysis or protein synthesis markers in all SM examined. In addition, Lal-/- SM showed increased total cholesterol and CE concentrations, especially during fasting and maturation. Regardless of increased glucose uptake, expression of the slow oxidative fiber marker MYH7 was markedly increased in Lal-/-SM, indicating a fiber switch from glycolytic, fast-twitch fibers to oxidative, slow-twitch fibers. Proteomic analysis of the oxidative and glycolytic parts of the SM confirmed the transition between fast- and slow-twitch fibers, consistent with the decreased Lal-/- muscle size due to the “fiber paradox”. Decreased oxidative capacity and ATP concentration were associated with reduced mitochondrial function of Lal-/- SM, particularly affecting oxidative phosphorylation, despite unchanged structure and number of mitochondria. Impairment in muscle function was reflected by increased exhaustion in the treadmill peak effort test in vivo. Conclusion: We conclude that whole-body loss of LAL is associated with a profound remodeling of the muscular phenotype, manifested by fiber type switch and a decline in muscle mass, most likely due to dysfunctional mitochondria and impaired energy metabolism, at least in mice.

Project description:Triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and their remnants contribute to atherosclerosis, possibly by carrying remnant cholesterol and/or by exerting a pro-inflammatory effect on macrophages. Nevertheless, little is known about how macrophages process triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. We show that uptake by macrophages of VLDL-sized emulsion particles is dependent on the enzyme lipoprotein lipase via its C-terminal domain. Subsequent internalization of VLDL-triglycerides by macrophages is carried out by caveolae-mediated endocytosis, followed by hydrolysis by lysosomal acid lipase. STARD3 is required for the transfer of lysosomal fatty acids to the ER for lipid storage, while NPC1 likely is involved in promoting the extracellular efflux of fatty acids. Our data provide novel insights into how macrophages process VLDL-derived triglycerides and suggest that macrophages have the remarkable capacity to excrete internalized triglycerides as fatty acids.

Project description:Here we report that the transcription factor cyclic AMP–responsive element–binding protein H (CREB-H, encoded by CREB3L3) is required for the maintenance of normal plasma triglyceride concentrations. CREB-H–deficient mice showed hypertriglyceridemia secondary to inefficient triglyceride clearance catalyzed by lipoprotein lipase (Lpl), partly due to defective expression of the Lpl coactivators Apoc2, Apoa4 and Apoa5 and concurrent augmentation of the Lpl inhibitor Apoc3. We identified multiple nonsynonymous mutations in CREB3L3 that produced hypomorphic or nonfunctional CREB-H protein in humans with extreme hypertriglyceridemia, implying a crucial role for CREB-H in human triglyceride metabolism. Total RNAs were isolated from the liver of three WT and three Creb3l3 deficient mice after a 24-h fasting. Littermates were used. Gene expression profiles were examined using Illumina WG-6 microarray chips.

Project description:Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is an extracellular lipase that preferentially hydrolyses triglycerides in triglyceride-rich lipoproteins within the circulation. LPL expression in macrophages contributes to atherosclerosis. In addition, the hydrolysis products liberated from lipoprotein lipids by LPL causes lipid accumulation and impairs cholesterol efflux ability in macrophages. However, the effects of LPL hydrolysis products in modulating the transcript profiles within macrophages and their roles in foam cell formation are not completely understood. We performed microarray analyses on THP-1 macrophages incubated with LPL hydrolysis products to identify differentially expressed genes.

Project description:Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the sole lysosomal enzyme responsible for the degradation of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols at acidic pH. Impaired LAL activity leads to LAL deficiency (LAL-D), a severe and fatal disease characterized by ectopic lysosomal lipid accumulation. Reduced LAL activity also contributes to the development and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). To advance our understanding of LAL-related liver pathologies, we performed comprehensive proteomic profiling of livers from mice with systemic genetic loss of LAL (Lal-/-) and from mice with hepatocyte-specific LAL-D (hepLal-/-). Lal-/- mice exhibited drastic proteome alterations, including dysregulation of multiple proteins related to metabolism, inflammation, liver fibrosis, and cancer. Global loss of LAL activity impaired both acidic and neutral lipase activities and resulted in hepatic lipid accumulation, indicating a complete metabolic shift in Lal-/- livers. Hepatic inflammation and immune cell infiltration were evident, with numerous upregulated inflammation-related gene ontology biological process terms. In contrast, both young and mature hepLal-/- mice displayed only minor changes in the liver proteome, suggesting that loss of LAL solely in hepatocytes does not phenocopy metabolic alterations observed in mice globally lacking LAL. These findings provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying liver dysfunction in LAL-D and may help in understanding why decreased LAL activity contributes to NAFLD. Our study highlights the importance of LAL in maintaining liver homeostasis and demonstrates the drastic consequences of its global deficiency on the liver proteome and liver function.
