Abstract
Megalin, a family of endocytic receptors related to the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, is a major pathway for proximal tubular aminoglycoside accumulation. We previously reported that aminoglycoside antibiotics reduce SGLT1-dependent glucose transport in pig proximal tubular epithelial LLC-PK1 cells in parallel with the order of their nephrotoxicity. In this study, using a model of gentamicin C (GMC)-induced reduction in SGLT1 activity, we examined whether ligands for megalin protect LLC-PK1 cells from the GMC-induced reduction in SGLT1 activity. We employed apolipoprotein E3 (apoE3) and lactoferrin as ligands for megalin. Then the cells were treated with various concentrations of apoE3, lactoferrin and bovine serum albumin with or without 100 microg/ml of GMC, and the SGLT1-dependent methyl alpha-D-glucopyranoside (AMG) uptake and levels of SGLT1 expression were determined. As a result, we demonstrated that the apoE3 significantly protects these cells from GMC-induced reduction in AMG uptake, but neither lactoferrin nor albumin does. In accord with a rise in AMG uptake activity, the mRNA and protein levels of SGLT1 were apparently up-regulated in the presence of apoE3. Furthermore, we found that the uptake of [3H] gentamicin is decreased by apoE3, and that apoE3 showed obvious protection against the GMC-dependent N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamidase (NAG) release from LLC-PK1 cells. Thus, these results indicate that apoE3 could be a valuable tool for the prevention of aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
Lysosomal proteinases (cathepsins) and their endogenous inhibitors (cystatins) have been found to be closely associated with senile plaques, cerebrovascular amyloid deposits, and neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer disease (AD). Further, profound changes in the lysosomal system seem to be an early event in "at-risk" neurons of AD brains. There is an ongoing controversy as to whether lysosome-associated proteolytic mechanisms are causally related to the development and/or further progression of the disease. The present article deals with some arguments "pro" and "contra" an involvement of the endosomal/lysosomal pathway in amyloidogenesis as a cardinal process in AD. Other putative targets of acidic proteinases and their natural inhibitors in the pathogenesis of AD (such as formation of neurofibrillary tangles and regulation of apolipoprotein E) are also discussed.

Abstract
We studied the immunohistochemical localization of cathepsin E (cath E) in the brains of patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) and control brains. In the normal brain cathepsin E immunoreactivity was detectable in a small number (below 5%) of neocortical and hippocampal neurons. In AD brains cathepsin E antigen was revealed in most large cortical and hippocampal pyramids and in neurons of the Nuc. basalis of Meynert. Cathepsin E was also present in cerebral microvessels, microglia, and in senile plaques. The enzyme might play roles in the process of neurodegeneration taking place in AD.

Abstract
The metabolic fate of high density lipoprotein (HDL) sphingomyelin in plasma was studied in rats over a 24-hr period after injection of HDL containing sphingomyelin which was 14C-labeled in the stearic (18:0) or lignoceric acid (24:0) moiety and 3H-labeled in the choline methyl groups. Decay of label in plasma followed three phases. The first two phases were similar for both isotopes and both types of sphingomyelin (t1/2 approximately 10 and 110 min). However, during the third phase (from 10 hr after injection), 3H label disappeared more slowly than 14C label from 18:0 sphingomyelin, whereas the 3H/14C ratio remained relatively constant when 24:0 sphingomyelin was used. Intact, doubly-labeled 18:0 sphingomyelin disappeared from HDL rapidly (t1/2 = 38 min) by tissue uptake and by transfer to very low density lipoprotein (VLDL). VLDL contained up to 12% of the sphingomyelin 1 hr after injection. This is the first demonstration of a transfer in vivo of sphingomyelin from HDL to VLDL. A similarly rapid transfer was also observed in vitro. Some nontritiated, [14C]18:0 or [14C]24:0 sphingomyelin was redistributed more slowly into HDL. Doubly-labeled phosphatidylcholine appeared in VLDL and HDL within 1 hr after injection and reached 1.8 and 2.1% of the injected 14C and 3H in VLDL at 1 hr, and 4.8 and 6.9% in HDL at 3 hr, respectively.

Abstract
Utilization of stearic and lignoceric acids supplied by high-density lipoprotein (HDL) sphingomyelin to different tissues was followed for 24 h after rats were injected with HDL containing [[1-14C]stearic (18:0) or [1-14C]lignoceric (24:0) acid [Me-3H]choline]sphingomyelin. Both isotopes reached a maximum in tissue lipids 3-12 h after injection and were recovered mainly in the liver (30%) and small intestine (3%), whereas the other tissues contained approx. 1% or less of the injected dose. All the tissues were able to take up some intact sphingomyelin from HDL and hydrolyze it. In the lung and erythrocytes, the 3H:14C ratio of sphingomyelin remained unchanged throughout the studied period, while an increase in the isotopic ratio was observed in the kidney due to the 3H choline moiety re-used for synthesis of new sphingomyelin. Conversely, the isotopic ratio of sphingomyelin decreased in the liver, indicating a saving of the 14C-labelled fatty acids, especially 24:0. Furthermore, [24:0]ceramide in the liver remained at a high level (6% of the injected dose), whereas [18:0]ceramide decreased to 1%. When the tissues were examined 24 h after injection, the proportion of the 14C linked to sphingomyelin in the total 14C was always higher for both kinds of sphingomyelin than the molar proportion of sphingomyelin in the whole of lipid classes. However, in the majority of the extra-hepatic tissues, more [14C]18:0 than [14C]24:0 was recovered in sphingomyelin, and more 14C radioactivity from 18:0 than from 24:0 was redistributed in the other lipids. The choline moiety from both kinds of sphingomyelin was re-used to synthesize phosphatidylcholine, especially in the liver (up to 20% of the injected dose). All these results show that utilization of sphingomyelin from HDL by tissues normally occurs in vivo and that this phenomenon should be taken into account in the study of the phospholipid turnover of cell membranes. They also show that metabolism of sphingomyelin from HDL in the liver and other tissues is dependent on the sphingomyelin acyl moiety.

Abstract
The in vivo metabolism and tissue sites of catabolism of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), labelled specifically in the apolipoprotein (apo) A-I moiety, were studied in rats treated with 17 alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE) for 5 days. Apo A-I was labelled either with O-(4-diazo-3-[125I]iodobenzoyl)sucrose, a non-degradable labelling compound, or with 131ICl. It was found that EE treatment decreases the serum cholesterol concentration to 10 mg/dl and stimulates the serum decay of apo A-I labelled HDL. The latter effect could be attributed to an increased catabolism of apo A-I labelled HDL in the liver. The increased rates of the serum decay and tissue uptake of apo A-I labelled HDL in EE-treated rats were not affected by a bolus injection of unlabelled human low-density lipoprotein (LDL), administered at the time of the injection of the labelled HDL. When the serum cholesterol concentration was raised to physiological levels by a bolus injection of unlabelled rat HDL, both the serum decay and the tissue uptake of apo A-I labelled HDL were almost completely restored to conditions encountered in control animals. In vitro binding experiments showed that liver membranes obtained from EE-treated rats demonstrated a 6-fold increased specific binding of human 125I-LDL, but virtually unchanged specific binding of rat 125I-HDL, as compared with liver membranes obtained from control rats. It is concluded that rat HDL apo A-I catabolism is hardly mediated by the apo B/E receptor induced by EE treatment.

Abstract
The serum protein binding secretory prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) and lysosomal placental acid phosphatase (LAP) was purified using affinity chromatography on gels containing immobilized acid phosphatases. The protein, which could be eluted from these enzyme affinity gels only with 0.05 mol/l HCl (pH 2.0), was shown to be apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I), the main structural protein of high density lipoprotein (HDL).

Abstract
The in vivo metabolism of high density lipoprotein (HDL), labeled by incorporation of 125I-apolipoprotein (apo) A-IV, was studied in the rat and compared with the metabolism of HDL labeled with 131I-apo A-I. The 125I-apo A-IV labeled HDL was obtained by adding small amounts of radioiodinated apo A-IV to rat serum, followed by separation of the different lipoprotein fractions by chromatography on 6% agarose columns in order to avoid "stripping" of apolipoproteins by ultracentrifugation. Under both in vitro and in vivo conditions, the 125I-apo A-IV remained an integral component of HDL and was not exchanged to other lipoproteins, including the ""free" apo A-IV fraction. The serum half-life, measured at between 8 and 28 hours after intravenous injection of labeled HDL, was 8.5 +/- 0.5 hours for HDL apo A-IV and 10.2 +/- 0.7 hours for HDL apo A-I. The tissue sites of catabolism of HDL apo A-IV and HDL apo A-I were analyzed in the "leupeptin-model." Only the kidneys and liver showed a significant leupeptin-dependent accumulation of radioactivity. At 4 hours after injection of 125I-apo A-IV/131I-apo A-I labeled HDL, 3.5% +/- 1.0% and 8.4% +/- 2.0% of HDL apo A-IV and 4.6% +/- 1.3% and 2.6% +/- 0.6% of the HDL apo A-I were accumulated in a leupeptin-dependent process in the kidneys and liver, respectively. Immunocytochemical studies revealed that the renal localization of apo A-IV was intracellular and confined to the epithelial cells of the proximal tubuli.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The binding of rat 125I-labelled high-density lipoprotein (HDL) to rat kidney membranes was studied using HDL fractions varying in their apolipoprotein E content. The apolipoprotein E/apolipoprotein A-I ratio (g/g) in the HDL fractions ranged from essentially 0 to 1.5. All these HDL preparations showed the same binding characteristics. The saturation curves, measured at 0 degrees C in the presence of 2% bovine serum albumin, consisted of two components: low-affinity non-saturable binding and high-affinity binding (Kd about 40 micrograms of HDL protein/ml). Scatchard analyses of the high-affinity binding suggest a single class of non-interacting binding sites. These sites could be purified together with the plasma membrane marker enzyme 5'-nucleotidase. The binding of rat HDL to rat kidney membranes was not sensitive to high concentrations of EDTA, relatively insensitive to pronase treatment and influenced by temperature. The specific binding of rat HDL was highest at acid pH and showed an additional optimum at pH 7.5. On a total protein basis unlabelled rat VLDL competed as effectively as unlabelled rat HDL for binding of 125I-labelled rat HDL to partially purified kidney membranes. Rat LDL, purified by chromatography on concanavalin A columns and human LDL did not compete. Unlabelled human HDL was a much weaker competitor than unlabelled rat HDL and the maximal specific binding of 125I-labelled human HDL was only 10% of the value for 125I-labelled rat HDL.

Abstract
The in vivo turnover and sites of catabolism of O-(4-diazo-3-[125I]iodobenzoyl)sucrose-labelled rat high-density lipoprotein (HDL) apolipoprotein A-I were studied in rats treated for 3 days with 4-aminopyrazolo-[3,4-d]pyrimidine (4APP). It was found that 4APP treatment decreases the serum cholesterol concentration to 6 mg/dl and stimulates the serum decay of labelled HDL. The latter effect could be attributed to an increased catabolism of radioactive HDL apolipoprotein A-I by the liver. When the serum cholesterol concentration was raised to physiological levels by a bolus injection of unlabelled rat HDL, at the time of administration of the labelled HDL, the serum decays and the tissue uptakes of apolipoprotein A-I labelled HDL were identical in 4APP-treated rats and control animals. When a bolus injection of unlabelled human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) was administered to 4APP-treated rats, the serum decay and tissue uptake of apolipoprotein A-I labelled HDL remained rapid. The recovery of radioactivity in the adrenal glands was increased almost 10 fold by 4APP treatment, a phenomenon which was reversed by a bolus injection of unlabelled HDL, but not by injection of unlabelled LDL. It is concluded that treatment of rats with 4APP does not affect the rate of catabolism of rat HDL apolipoprotein A-I, when the serum HDL concentration in the treated animals is restored to physiological levels.

Abstract
Different types of diabetes mellitus have different effects on high density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. Impaired glucose tolerance may be associated with no change or a slight decrease in HDL cholesterol. Type I diabetes may have normal or elevated HDL cholesterol levels. This HDL elevation may be due to an increase in HDL2 or HDL3. Apo A-I/Apo A-II ratio is also higher in these diabetics. Type II diabetics may have normal or low HDL cholesterol levels as well as normal or decreased Apo A-I levels. In gestational diabetics, the mean HDL cholesterol is lower than controls. Dietary therapy resulting in greater than 10% weight loss in obese diabetics leads to an increase in their HDL-cholesterol levels, although the effect on the latter is controversial. Intensive insulin therapy (for 2-3 weeks) increases serum apo A-I and HDL-cholesterol levels. End-stage renal disease also affects HDL metabolism. In general, patients with this disorder have a decrease of cholesterol and an increase in triglyceride in their HDL. There is an increase in apo E and a decrease in apo CII in their HDL. Apo A-I levels are unaffected whereas apo A-II levels are decreased. Renal transplant patients may have low, normal or high HDL cholesterol and normal or high apo-I levels. In non-diabetic, normotriglyceridemic patients peritoneal dialysis increases their HDL-cholesterol. In non-diabetic hypertriglyceridemic and diabetic patients, peritoneal dialysis causes no change in their HDL-cholesterol.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Rat apolipoprotein (apo) A-I and A-IV, isolated from both lymph chylomicrons and serum high density lipoproteins (HDL) were analyzed by isoelectric focusing. Lymph chylomicron apo A-I consisted for 81 +/- 2% of the pro form and for 19 +/- 2% of the mature form, while apo A-I isolated from serum HDL was present for 36 +/- 4% in the pro form and for 64 +/- 4% in the mature form. Apo A-IV also showed two major protein bands after analysis by isoelectric focusing. The most prominent component is the more basic protein that amounts to 80 +/- 2% in apo A-IV isolated from lymph chylomicrons and to 60 +/- 3% in apo A-IV isolated from serum HDL. Apo A-I (or apo A-IV), isolated from both sources (lymph chylomicrons or serum HDL), was iodinated and the radioactive apolipoproteins were incorporated into rat serum lipoproteins. The resulting labeled HDL was isolated from serum by molecular sieve chromatography on 6% agarose columns and injected intravenously into rats. No difference in the fractional turnover rate or the tissue uptake of the two labeled HDL preparations was observed, neither for apo A-I nor for apo A-IV. It is concluded that the physiological significance of the extracellular pro apo A-I conversion or the post-translational modification of apo A-IV is not related to the fractional turnover rate in serum or to the rate of catabolism in liver and kidneys.

Abstract
The in vivo metabolism in the rat of radioiodinated human and rat high-density lipoprotein was compared with a double-label procedure using 125I and 131I. While rat high-density lipoprotein showed a biphasic serum decay, human high-density lipoprotein was characterized by a monoexponential serum decay. No differences were observed between the serum decay of human high-density lipoprotein-2 and -3 subfractions, isolated by rate zonal ultracentrifugation. The catabolic sites of human and rat high-density lipoprotein were analysed using the lysosomal cathepsin inhibitor leupeptin. Radioiodinated rat high-density lipoprotein was catabolized by the kidneys and by the liver. In contrast, radioiodinated human high-density lipoprotein was catabolized almost exclusively in the liver. No difference in the catabolic sites of human high-density lipoprotein-2 and -3 subfractions was observed. The catabolic sites of human high-density lipoprotein apolipoprotein A-I in the rat were further analysed using the O-(4-diazo-3-[125I]iodobenzoyl) sucrose label. Compared with rat high-density lipoprotein apolipoprotein A-I, the kidneys played a minor role in the catabolism of human high-density lipoprotein apolipoprotein A-I. It is concluded that in the rat the catabolic pathways of the apolipoprotein A-I moieties of rat and human high-density lipoproteins are different, indicating that homologous high-density lipoproteins should be used for the investigation of in vivo metabolism.

Abstract
Low density lipoprotein and high density lipoprotein were isolated from rat serum by sequential ultracentrifugation in the density intervals 1.025-1.050 g/ml and 1.125-1.21 g/ml, respectively. The isolated lipoproteins were radioiodinated using ICl. Low density lipoprotein was further purified by concanavalin A affinity chromatography and concentrated by ultracentrifugation. 95% of the purified low density lipoprotein radioactivity was precipitable by tetramethylurea, while only 4% was associated with lipids. The radioiodinated high density lipoprotein was incubated for 1 h at 4 degrees C with unlabelled very low density lipoprotein, followed by reisolation by sequential ultracentrifugation. Only 3% of the radioactivity was associated with lipids and 90% was present on apolipoprotein A-I. The serum decay curves of labelled and subsequently purified rat low and high density lipoprotein, measured over a period of 28 h, clearly exhibited more than one component, in contrast to the monoexponential decay curves of iodinated human low density lipoprotein. The decay curves were not affected by the methods used to purify the LDL and HDL preparations. The catabolic sites of the labelled rat lipoproteins were analyzed in vivo using leupeptin-treated rats. In vivo treatment of rats with leupeptin did not affect the rate of disappearance from serum of intravenously injected labelled rat low density lipoprotein and high density lipoprotein. Leupeptin-dependent accumulation of radioiodine occurred almost exclusively in the liver after intravenous injection of iodinated low density lipoprotein, while both the liver and the kidneys showed leupeptin-dependent accumulation of radioactivity after injection of iodinated high density lipoprotein.
