Abstract
Enterostatin, the N-terminal activation peptide of pancreatic procolipase, has been identified in three different forms in rat: VPDPR (Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg), APGPR (Ala-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg) and VPGPR (Val-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg). We investigated the possibility for a species to have several isoforms of enterostatin. Pancreas was purified from four different species (rat, mouse, cat and pig) and the enterostatin sequences were identified. At the same time, the activities of pancreatic lipase and colipase were measured. In rat and mouse pancreas APGPR was the only form of enterostatin identified. The colipase activity was 188 ± 25 U/mg protein in rat and 189 ± 16 U/mg in mouse and the lipase activity 354 ± 33 U/mg and 292 ± 19 U/mg respectively. Rat and mouse had a colipase/lipase ratio close to 0.5. In pancreas from cat and pig we only detected the form VPDPR (Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg). We found the colipase activity in cat to be 493 ± 92 U/mg, while the lipase activity was three times lower, 167 ± 18 U/mg. Pig pancreas concentrations of colipase was 110 ± 8 U/mg and of lipase 38 ± 5 U/mg. In both cat and pig the colipase/lipase ratio was close to 3. This suggests that colipase might have an additional role than to restore the activity of lipase. Our hypothesis is that an overproduction of colipase and hence also enterostatin is involved in the regulation of fat metabolism.

Abstract
Colipase is a key element in the lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of dietary lipids. Although devoid of enzymatic activity, colipase promotes the pancreatic lipase activity in physiological intestinal conditions by anchoring the enzyme at the surface of lipid droplets. Analysis of structures of NMR colipase models and simulations of their interactions with various lipid aggregates, lipid droplet, and bile salt micelle, were carried out to determine and to map the lipid binding sites on colipase. We show that the micelle and the oil droplet bind to the same side of colipase 3D structure, mainly the hydrophobic fingers. Moreover, it appears that, although colipase has a single direction of interaction with a lipid interface, it does not bind in a specific way but rather oscillates between different positions. Indeed, different NMR models of colipase insert different fragments of sequence in the interface, either simultaneously or independently. This supports the idea that colipase finger plasticity may be crucial to adapt the lipase activity to different lipid aggregates.

Abstract
Enterostatin (APGPR), an anorectic pentapeptide derived from the amino terminus of procolipase, significantly reduced serum cholesterol levels after oral administration at a dose of 100 mg/kg for 3 days in mice fed a high-cholesterol-cholic acid diet. The hypocholesterolemic effect of APGPR was inhibited by pretreatment with lorglumide, an antagonist for cholecystokinin 1 (CCK(1)) receptor, even though APGPR does not have any affinity for CCK(1) receptors. Similarly, the hypocholesterolemic activity of VPDPR, an APGPR analogue, was blocked by lorglumide. These results suggest that the hypocholesterolemic effects of APGPR and VPDPR are mediated by a CCK(1) receptor-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
Three colipases were purified from pancreas of two birds (ostrich and turkey) and one mammal (dromedary). After acidic and/or heat treatment and precipitation by sulfate ammonium and then ethanol, cofactors were purified by Sephadex G-50 gel filtration followed by ion-exchange chromatography first on Mono S and then on Mono Q. One molecular form was obtained from each species with a molecular mass of approximately 10 kDa. Cofactors were not glycosylated. The N-terminal sequences of the three purified cofactors showed high sequence homology. A 90 amino acid sequence of the ostrich cofactor was established based on peptide sequences from four different digests of the denaturated protein using trypsin, chymotrypsin, thermolysin, or staphylococcal protease. This sequence exhibited a high degree of homology with chicken and mammal cofactors. Bile salt-inhibited pancreatic lipases from five species were activated to variable extents by colipases from bird and mammal origins. The bird pancreatic lipase-colipase system appears to be functionally similar to homologous lipolytic systems from higher mammals. Our comparative study showed that mammal colipase presents a lower activation level toward bird lipases than the bird counterpart. Three-dimensional modeling of ostrich colipase suggested a structural explanation of this fact.

Abstract
Although enterostatin (VPDPR) inhibited morphine-induced analgesia, it had no affinity for mu-opioid receptors. VPDPR administration was reported to elevate serum corticosterone levels. We found that corticosterone exhibited a similar anti-analgesic effect selective for mu-opioid. Furthermore, the anti-analgesic effect of VPDPR was inhibited by RU486, an antagonist for the glucocorticoid receptor. The anti-analgesic effect of VPDPR was not observed in adrenalectomized mice. These results suggest that the anti-analgesic activity of VPDPR is mediated by corticosterone released from the adrenal cortex.

Abstract
Enterostatin, a pentapeptide derived from the precursor protein procolipase has been shown to inhibit dietary fat intake and to reduce body fat after chronic administration in rats. We repeat that the enterostatin amino acid sequence from the genomic DNA of 5 different rat strains is APGPR. 125I-APGPR bound to three proteins (300, 205 and 60 kDa) in rat serum and one 60 kDa protein in chicken serum. These serum binding proteins were also eluted by APGPR affinity chromatography. Western blot analysis of serum protein identified enterostatin-like immunoreactivity associated with the same molecular weight bands. Our results demonstrate the enterostatin sequence in rat is APGPR and suggest the presence of enterostatin binding proteins in rat and chicken serum.

Abstract
Enterostatins, pentapeptides represented at the amino-terminus of the procolipase molecule, are derived following tryptic cleavage of the procolipase molecule in the lumen of the gut. Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg or VPDPR is one such enterostatin. Despite pharmacologic studies suggesting a role for VPDPR in appetite regulation and insulin secretion, the function of this endogenous peptide has been impossible to discern due to the lack of a suitable assay. Using polyclonal antibodies raised against VPDPR and different chromatographic methods, we examined the nature and distribution of enterostatin-like immunoreactivity in rat plasma. The results reported here show for the first time the presence of VPDPR-like immunoreactivity in rat plasma. Further characterization of the plasma VPDPR-like immunoreactivity revealed that a) it is not due to APGPR, VPGPR, or VPDPR but to another peptide similar to VPDPR, and b) plasma VPDPR-like immunoreactivity may circulate bound to large carrier proteins.

Abstract
Enterostatins belong to a family of peptides (e.g., Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg, VPDPR; Ala-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg, APGPR; and Val-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg, VPGPR) derived from the tryptic cleavage of amino-terminal pentapeptide from procolipase. Pharmacologic studies have suggested a role for these peptides in appetite regulation and insulin secretion. Studies into the distribution of enterostatins or the role of endogenous peptides have not been possible until now due to the lack of a suitable method for assay. Using two polyclonal antibodies raised against VPDPR and APGPR and different chromatographic methods, we have examined the nature and distribution of enterostatin-like immunoreactivity in human cerebrospinal fluid. The results reported here show for the first time the presence of enterostatin-like immunoreactivity in the human cerebrospinal fluid. Further characterization of cerebrospinal fluid enterostatin-like immunoreactivity revealed that it is not due to APGPR, VPGPR, or VPDPR but to another peptide similar to VPDPR.

Abstract
Enterostatin, an amino-terminal pentapeptide produced in the intestinal lumen after cleavage of pancreatic procolipase, has been shown to suppress fat intake in rats after intraduodenal infusion. In this study, female Sprague-Dawley rats fitted with a duodenal catheter were intestinally infused with enterostatin (Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg, 11.3 and 22.6 nmol/kg/min) plus 20% Intralipid for 30 min. Plasma insulin levels were significantly reduced, whereas plasma glucose concentrations were not altered by enterostatin-VPDPR. The tripeptide Asp-Pro-Arg was also found to decrease the levels of plasma insulin. However, the pentapeptide with the sequence Val-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg, des-Arg-enterostatin Val-Pro-Asp-Pro and the tripeptide Pro-Asp-Pro failed to cause the reduction of plasma insulin levels in rats following intestinal infusion of these peptides. Radiolabeled enterostatin ([3H]VPDPR) was identified in plasma by HPLC following intraduodenal infusion of the peptide, indicating that the appearance of an intact enterostatin-VPDPR in blood. It is concluded that intestinally administered enterostatin-VPDPR and its metabolites reduce plasma levels of insulin stimulated by Intralipid.

Abstract
Procolipase was identified in the stomach by in situ hybridisation. A strong autoradiographic labelling of chief cells was seen in the fundus region, declining more distally and being almost absent in antrum. There was no labelling seen in the intestine. Colipase activity was estimated in rat gastric juice following pentagastrin stimulation and was found to average 2 microM. Furthermore, enterostatin, the N-terminal pentapeptide of procolipase, has been identified in the rat gut and pancreas. Extracts from gastric mucosa, intestinal mucosa and pancreas were purified by gel filtration (Sephadex G25), ion-exchange chromatography (CM-Sepharose) and HPLC (C18 reverse phase). Using an ELISA assay with antibodies directed against enterostatin, two forms of the peptide were identified both in the gut and in the pancreas, with the amino-acid sequences APGPR and VPGPR, respectively. APGPR was found to be the predominant form of enterostatin, whereas only a small amount had the structure VPGPR. Enterostatin in the form of APGPR, when injected intracerebroventricularly in female Sprague-Dawley rats, significantly reduced high-fat food intake in a two-choice situation of low-fat (14% fat by energy) and high-fat (38% fat) food. It is concluded that procolipase is produced in the stomach and secreted into the gastric juice. This is also a novel source of enterostatin.

Abstract
Colipase (Mr 10 kDa) confers catalytic activity to pancreatic lipase under physiological conditions (high bile salt concentrations). Previously determined 3-A-resolution X-ray structures of lipase-colipase complexes have shown that, in the absence of substrate, colipase binds to the noncatalytic C-terminal domain of pancreatic lipase (van Tilbeurgh H, Sarda L, Verger R, Cambillau C, 1992, Nature 359:159-162; van Tilbeurgh et al., 1993a, Nature 362:814-820). Upon lipid binding, conformational changes at the active site of pancreatic lipase bring a surface loop (the lid) in contact with colipase, creating a second binding site for this cofactor. Covalent inhibition of the pancreatic lipase by a phosphonate inhibitor yields better diffracting crystals of the lipase-colipase complex. From the 2.4-A-resolution structure of this complex, we give an accurate description of the colipase. It confirms the previous proposed disulfide connections (van Tilbeurgh H, Sarda L, Verger R, Cambillau C, 1992, Nature 359:159-162; van Tilbeurgh et al., 1993a, Nature 362:814-820) that were in disagreement with the biochemical assignment (Chaillan C, Kerfelec B, Foglizzo E, Chapus C, 1992, Biochem Biophys Res Commun 184:206-211). Colipase lacks well-defined secondary structure elements. This small protein seems to be stabilized mainly by an extended network of five disulfide bridges that runs throughout the flatly shaped molecule, reticulating its four finger-like loops. The colipase surface can be divided into a rather hydrophilic part, interacting with lipase, and a more hydrophobic part, formed by the tips of the fingers. The interaction between colipase and the C-terminal domain of lipase is stabilized by eight hydrogen bonds and about 80 van der Waals contacts. Upon opening of the lid, three more hydrogen bonds and about 28 van der Waals contacts are added, explaining the higher apparent affinity in the presence of a lipid/water interface. The tips of the fingers are very mobile and constitute the lipid interaction surface. Two detergent molecules that interact with colipase were observed in the crystal, covering part of the hydrophobic surface.

Abstract
LY226936, methylcarbamothoic acid-S-(4,5-dihydro-2-thiazolyl) ester, is a new compound that, when administered to obese Zucker rats, caused reduced food intake. LY226936 reduced the food consumption after a single oral dose of 50 and 100 mg/kg. On chronic oral administration to meal-fed obese (5 to 35 mg/kg. once daily) and to fed obese and lean (15 mg/kg. twice daily) Zucker rats, LY226936 reduced food intake and body weight gain for periods ranging from 40 to 48 days. The effect on both parameters was statistically significant. There is no evidence in our studies that tolerance to the actions of LY226936 developed. LY226936 decreased the consumption of both high carbohydrate and high fat diets. Food consumption of meal-fed obese Zucker rats was reduced significantly each time a single dose of 10 ugm LY226936 per rat was infused intracerebroventricularly. None of the receptors studied (mu and kappa opioid, CCK, serotonin, neuropeptide Y, galinin, N-methyl-D-aspartic acid) appeared to bind LY226936 and therefore, appear not to be involved in the depression of food intake by the obese Zucker rat.

Abstract
A series of enterostatin analogues were tested to investigate the minimal structure required for activity to suppress the intake of high-fat (HF) diets. The dose-response curve to intracerebroventricular (ICV) enterostatin was U-shaped (maximal inhibition at 1 nmol). Removal or modification of the N-terminal valine from enterostatin (Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg) abolished activity, as did C-terminal amidation. The tripeptide (Pro-Asp-Pro) and the cyclo-diketopiperazine cyclo-Asp-Pro retained activity whereas the linear Asp-Pro dipeptide was inactive. In rats adapted to a three-choice macronutrient diet, cyclo-Asp-Pro specifically inhibited fat intake and had near maximal inhibition (50%) at the 0.03 nmol dose. The enterostatin inhibitory effect on fat intake may reside in the cyclo-diketopiperazine molecule, cyclo-Asp-Pro.

Abstract
The effect of a satiating meal on the serum and urinary concentrations of procolipase propeptide (Ala-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg, APGPR) immunoreactivity, as measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) specific for free APGPR, has been studied in normal and morbidly obese human subjects. The normal subjects displayed a biphasic response with coordinate increases in both serum and urine APGPR immunoreactivity both occurring within the first two hours after the meal. In two of three of the morbidly obese subjects, this early rise in APGPR concentration in urine was not seen but was followed by a slow rise in urinary APGPR immunoreactivity at four to six hours. In both the normal and obese groups, the urinary immunoreactive signal was found to coelute with synthetic APGPR on gel chromatography. In rats, procolipase propeptide (Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg, VPDPR) specifically inhibits fat intake early in the postprandial period when given peripherally or centrally. This study suggests that in humans APGPR reaches the circulation shortly after feeding and is excreted in the urine. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that human procolipase propeptide may also act as a satiety signal. In addition the late appearance of the peptide in some of the morbidly obese patients could be associated with perturbation of appetite control in these subjects.

Abstract
Human pancreatic colipase is secreted as the inactive form procolipase. Activation involves tryptic cleavage of an N-terminal pentapeptide Ala-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg (APGPR) which is known as procolipase activation peptide (CLAP). N-terminally haptenised synthetic APGPR was used to generate specific C-terminally directed anti-APGPR antibodies. The antiserum was used to develop a competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) specific for free CLAP with a detection limit of 12 nmol/l and an intra-assay coefficient of variation (CV) of 3.28% and an inter-assay CV of 5.82%. The release of immunoreactive CLAP from human pancreatic juice and chicken pancreas upon trypsinisation was demonstrated, as well as the absence of reactivity of the antisera with procolipase from which the CLAP is released. APGPR was found to be unstable in biological fluids. Immunoreactivity is rapidly lost with half life of 5 min and 4 h in human serum and urine respectively. This loss of reactivity can be significantly slowed by the addition of 20 mmol/l Zinc ions (Zn2+), while ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA) and other protease inhibitors were ineffective. In serum the moiety responsible for loss of immunoreactivity was found to have an estimated molecular mass of 200,000-300,000 Da. CLAP assay specifically reports procolipase activation and may help elucidate the mechanism of satiety as well as contribute to the recognition and understanding of the role of procolipase activation in diseases states such as pancreatitis.

Abstract
Pancreatic procolipase is activated by trypsin forming colipase, a cofactor for pancreatic lipase involved in intestinal fat digestion and a pentapeptide named enterostatin. Enterostatin with the sequence Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg (VPDPR) was previously shown to decrease food intake in rats both after peripheral and central injection. In this work enterostatin has been shown to reduce specifically the consumption of a high-fat diet as opposed to a low-fat diet after central injection of Sprague-Dawley rats. After starvation for 18 hours the rats were given a free choice of a low-fat diet (5.2% fat by weight; 14.1% by energy) and a high-fat diet (17.8% fat by weight; 32.8% by energy) in separate containers. After injection of 200 ng of VPDPR into the lateral ventricle, the rats selectively decreased the intake of the high-fat diet by 45% (p less than 0.005), while the intake of the low-fat diet was unaffected compared to saline injection. VPDP after intracerebroventricular injection had totally lost the selective effect on the consumption of a high- fat and a low-fat diet. It is suggested that enterostatin formed during fat digestion from pancreatic procolipase may provide a feed-back signal for the intake of lipid.

Abstract
Valine-proline-aspartate-proline-arginine (VPDPR), the amino terminal pentapeptide of pancreatic procolipase, produced a dose-dependent reduction in food intake when injected intraperitoneally into Osborne-Mendel rats that had been starved overnight. This inhibition of feeding was observed when the rats were fed a high-fat diet but not in rats fed a high-carbohydrate, low-fat diet. At higher doses of VPDPR, the inhibition of feeding was maintained for over 6 hours. An equimolar mixture of the free amino acids had no effect on food intake. In rats adapted to a three-choice macronutrient diet, VPDPR inhibited fat intake but had no effect on carbohydrate or protein intake. This selective inhibition of fat intake was observed in both overnight-fasted rats presented with food and in ad-lib-fed rats at the beginning of the dark-onset feeding period. It is suggested that this peptide may be a feedback signal to regulate the intake of dietary fat.

Abstract
A cDNA clone encoding rat pancreatic colipase was isolated using as a probe a synthetic deoxyoligonucleotide corresponding to a highly conserved amino acid sequence region in colipases from other species. The cloned messenger codes for a protein of 95 amino acids plus a signal peptide of 17 amino acids. The structure of the full-length cDNA was also determined and the corresponding amino acid sequence showed a high degree of homology with those of other known colipases. Quantification of the homologous mRNA in the pancreas of animals fed a high-lipid diet was consistent with a specific though moderate induction of colipase messenger by the nutritional manipulation.

Abstract
Pancreatic procolipase is a cofactor for lipase and necessary for optimal fat digestion in the intestine during a meal. It is activated by trypsin in the intestine during release of an activation peptide, with the sequence Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg in rat. This peptide, in the following termed VPDPR, was found to decrease food intake in rats. The human procolipase activation peptide with the sequence Ala-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg (APGPR) had no effect on food intake in rats, nor the trypsinogen activation peptide with the sequence Phe-Pro-Val-Asp-Asp-Asp-Asp-Lys (FPVDDDDK). Procolipase added to standard pellets decreased the daily food intake in rats, whereas colipase added to pellets had no effect.

Abstract
Pancreatic pro-colipase activation peptide, a pentapeptide with the sequence VPDPR was found to significantly suppress food intake of 20 h fasted Sprague-Dawley rats in a dose-dependent way. A rat treated with pro-colipase-enriched pellets for 26 days showed decreased daily food intake and retarded growth, which were restored during a following period of regular feeding. Genetically obese Zucker rats (fa/fa) were found to contain a reduced content of pancreatic pro-colipase (60% reduction), whereas the pancreatic lipase content was normal. A physiological function of pancreatic pro-colipase activation peptide as an endogenous satiety signal is suggested.

Abstract
Purified antibodies raised against chicken colipase were coupled to Sepharose 4B and colipase was isolated in a single step by immunoaffinity chromatography from an extract of chicken pancreas prepared under conditions where trypsin activation is avoided. The purified protein has a single amino terminal residue of alanine and its biochemical properties are similar to those of the precursor form of colipase (procolipase) previously isolated from porcine and equine pancreas or pancreatic juice. Further evidence for the existence of procolipase was obtained from kinetic studies of the hydrolysis of the Intralipid emulsion by untreated and trypsin-treated chicken pancreatic juice.

Abstract
Purified antibodies to human colipase86 were coupled to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B. The immunoadsorption column thus obtained was used to purify procolipase from human pancreatic juice in one step by immunoaffinity chromatography. A single form of procolipase was obtained, having similar biological properties as previously characterized procolipases from horse and pig. The sequence of the N-terminal propeptide was determined to be Ala-Pro-Gly-Pro-Arg. In bovine, equine and porcine procolipases the corresponding N-terminal sequence is Val-Pro-Asp-Pro-Arg.

Abstract
The amino acid sequence of an activated colipase purified from human pancreas was determined. The protein consists of a single polypeptide chain of 86 amino acids (human colipase86) and has a molecular weight of 9289. The sequence was determined by automated Edman degradation of the reduced and S-carboxymethylated protein and of two CNBr peptides. Sequence determination of porcine procolipase II was also performed, which showed that in the original sequence determination apparently two residues were missed. These residues were determined to be a leucine at position 37 and a serine in position 50. For comparison with porcine and equine procolipases, the residues composing human colipase are numbered from 6 to 91. No human procolipase has been isolated so far. The colipases from man, pig, horse and chicken show a high degree of homology: human colipase differs from the other proteins by substitutions of 19 (porcine), 24 (equine A) and 21 (equine B) residues, respectively.

Abstract
The hydrolysis of gum arabic-stabilized trioleylglycerol emulsions by pancreatic lipase was examined by freeze-fracture electron microscopy in the absence of bile salts. A sequence of liquid crystalline product phases was produced during the non-equilibrium conditions of hydrolysis. The morphology of the product phases were pH- and droplet size-dependent. At pH 8.3 the initial product phase was composed of homogeneous spherical vesicles regardless of trioleylglycerol drop size. As the reaction progressed the partially hydrolyzed droplets showed a crystalline 'crust' and a true lamellar phase which was often swollen, giving an isotropic appearance to this phase. Some droplets demonstrated a possible transitory hexagonal phase composed of tubular-lamellar elements in close association with the oil phase. These tubular-lamellar elements graded into a lamellar phase at the aqueous/product interface. A cubic phase was not discernible. At pH 7.0 a single phase was seen which covered the drop surface with an amorphous layered 'crust'. The significance of these phases is discussed in relation to those produced by pure and mixed lipids under equilibrium conditions.

Abstract
Pure colipase was prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography from porcine and human pancreatic juice. A single form of the porcine colipase was obtained, having the structural and biological properties of previously characterized porcine procolipase A. Two forms of activated colipase (N-terminal Gly) were isolated from human pancreatic juice by the same procedure. The existence of two forms of activated colipase might arise from rapid activation of a precursor form of human colipase during collection of the pancreatic juice.

Abstract
In this evolutionary study the following criteria have been used to prove the existence of colipase: 1. It restores the activity of human and porcine pancreatic lipase inhibited by bile salt. 2. It cross-reacts with antisera to human and porcine colipases. 3. Its restoration of lipase activity, inhibited by bile salt, in the tributyrin assay system, is prevented by antiserum to colipase. 4. It is a heat-stable, low-molecular-weight protein (molecular weight about 10 000 by gel-filtration). The occurrence of colipase has been verified in the exocrine pancreatic cells from hagfish (Myxine glutinosa), ratfish (Chimaera monstrosa), rayfish (Raja radiata). Greenland shark (Somnius microcephalus) and dogfish (Squalus acanthius). No colipase activity could be found in the gastric juice of crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus). These results indicate that colipase envolved in the vertebrates before the organized exocrine pancreatic gland and occurred simultaneously with the bile salts/bile alcohols.

Abstract
Procedures for purification of porcine colipase II (Gly6-Gly89) and for obtaining purified anti-colipase antibodies are described. The interactions between antibodies immobilized on an Ultrogel AcA 22 column and colipase were investigated and colipase radioimmunoassay carried out. The immobilized antibody-colipase binding was preserved in the presence of mixed micelles, lipase, or both when added to the elution mixture. Bound colipase maintained its capability of interacting with mixed micelles, but not with lipase in either the presence or the absence of mixed micelles. It could be inferred that the antigenic site(s) is independent of the interfacial recognition site and close to the site of lipase recognition. Results are reported suggesting that one or both colipase histidyl residue-containing sequences are involved as antigenic determinant(s). Immunoreactive colipase, bound to a macromolecular protein complex, was found in the plasma of pig. This finding could be explained by an endocrine 'leakage' of colipase from the exocrine pancreatic cell rather than by passage through the intestinal mucosa.
