Cloning and Molecular Characterization of HSL and Its Expression Pattern in HPG Axis and Testis during Different Stages in Bactrian Camel. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2022; 44:3779-3791. [PMID: 36005155 PMCID: PMC9406428 DOI: 10.3390/cimb44080259] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a key enzyme in animal fat metabolism and is involved in the rate-limiting step of catalyzing the decomposition of fat and cholesterol. It also plays an important regulatory role in maintaining seminiferous epithelial structure, androgen synthesis and primordial germ cell differentiation. We previously reported that HSL is involved the synthesis of steroids in Bactrian camels, although it is unclear what role it plays in testicular development. The present study was conducted to characterize the biological function and expression pattern of the HSL gene in the hypothalamic pituitary gonadal (HPG) axis and the development of testis in Bactrian camels. We analyzed cloning of the cDNA sequence of the HSL gene of Bactrian camels by RT-PCR, as well as the structural features of HSL proteins, using bioinformatics software, such as ProtParam, TMHMM, Signal P 4.1, SOPMA and MEGA 7.0. We used qRT-PCR, Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining to clarify the expression pattern of HSL in the HPG axis and testis of two-week-old (2W), two-year-old (2Y), four-year-old (4Y) and six-year-old (6Y) Bactrian camels. According to sequence analysis, the coding sequence (CDS) region of the HSL gene is 648 bp in length and encodes 204 amino acids. According to bioinformatics analysis, the nucleotide and amino acid sequence of Bactrian camel HSL are most similar to those of Camelus pacos and Camelusdromedarius, with the lowest sequence similarity with Mus musculus. In adult Bactrian camel HPG axis tissues, both HSL mRNA and protein expression were significantly higher in the testis than in other tissues (hypothalamus, pituitary and pineal tissues) (p < 0.05). The expression of mRNA in the testis increased with age and was the highest in six-year-old testis (p < 0.01). The protein expression levels of HSL in 2Y and 6Y testis were clearly higher than in 2W and 4Y testis tissues (p < 0.01). Immunofluorescence results indicate that the HSL protein was mainly localized in the germ cells, Sertoli cells and Leydig cells from Bactrian camel testis, and strong positive signals were detected in epididymal epithelial cells, basal cells, spermatocytes and smooth muscle cells, with partially expression in hypothalamic glial cells, pituitary suspensory cells and pineal cells. According to the results of gene ontology (GO) analysis enrichment, HSL indirectly regulates the anabolism of steroid hormones through interactions with various targets. Therefore, we conclude that the HSL gene may be associated with the development and reproduction of Bactrian camels in different stages of maturity, and these results will contribute to further understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of HSL in Bactrian camel reproduction.

The role of triglyceride lipases in cancer associated cachexia. Trends Mol Med 2013; 19:292-301.

Abstract
Cancer associated cachexia (CAC) is a complex multiorgan syndrome frequently associated with various forms of cancer. Affected patients suffer from a dramatic loss of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. Most cases are accompanied by anorexia, and nutritional supplements are not sufficient to stop or reverse its course. CAC impairs many forms of therapeutic interventions and accounts for 15-20% of all deaths of cancer patients. Recently, several studies have recognized the importance of lipid metabolism and triglyceride hydrolysis as a major metabolic pathway involved in the initiation and/or progression of CAC. In this review, we explore the contributions of the triglyceride lipases to CAC and discuss various factors modulating lipase activity.

Abstract
The ability to store energy in the form of energy-dense triacylglycerol and to mobilize these stores rapidly during periods of low carbohydrate availability or throughout the strong metabolic demand is a highly conserved process, absolutely essential for survival. In the industrialized world the regulation of this pathway is viewed as an important therapeutic target for disease prevention. Adipose tissue lipolysis is a catabolic process leading to the breakdown of triacylglycerols stored in fat cells, and release of fatty acids and glycerol. Mobilization of adipose tissue fat is mediated by the MGL, HSL and ATGL, similarly functioning enzymes. ATGL initiates lipolysis followed by the actions of HSL on diacylglycerol, and MGL on monoacylglycerol. HSL is regulated by reversible phosphorylation on five critical residues. Phosphorylation alone, however, is not enough to activate HSL. Probably, conformational alterations and a translocation from the cytoplasm to lipid droplets are also involved. In accordance, Perilipin functions as a master regulator of lipolysis, protecting or exposing the triacylglycerol core of a lipid droplet to lipases. The prototype processes of hormonal lipolytic control are the β-adrenergic stimulation and suppression by insulin, both of which affect cytoplasmic cyclic AMP levels. Lipolysis in adipocytes is an important process in the management of body energy reserves. Its deregulation may contribute to the symptoms of type 2 diabetes mellitus and other pathological situations. We, herein, discuss the metabolic regulation and function of lipases mediating mammalian lipolysis with a focus on HSL, quoting newly identified members of the lipolytic proteome.

Abstract
Lipolysis is the biochemical pathway responsible for the catabolism of triacylglycerol (TAG) stored in cellular lipid droplets. The hydrolytic cleavage of TAG generates non-esterified fatty acids, which are subsequently used as energy substrates, essential precursors for lipid and membrane synthesis, or mediators in cell signaling processes. Consistent with its central importance in lipid and energy homeostasis, lipolysis occurs in essentially all tissues and cell types, it is most abundant, however, in white and brown adipose tissue. Over the last 5years, important enzymes and regulatory protein factors involved in lipolysis have been identified. These include an essential TAG hydrolase named adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) [annotated as patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein A2], the ATGL activator comparative gene identification-58 [annotated as α/β hydrolase containing protein 5], and the ATGL inhibitor G0/G1 switch gene 2. Together with the established hormone-sensitive lipase [annotated as lipase E] and monoglyceride lipase, these proteins constitute the basic "lipolytic machinery". Additionally, a large number of hormonal signaling pathways and lipid droplet-associated protein factors regulate substrate access and the activity of the "lipolysome". This review summarizes the current knowledge concerning the enzymes and regulatory processes governing lipolysis of fat stores in adipose and non-adipose tissues. Special emphasis will be given to ATGL, its regulation, and physiological function.

Abstract
Fatty acids (FAs) are essential components of all lipid classes and pivotal substrates for energy production in all vertebrates. Additionally, they act directly or indirectly as signaling molecules and, when bonded to amino acid side chains of peptides, anchor proteins in biological membranes. In vertebrates, FAs are predominantly stored in the form of triacylglycerol (TG) within lipid droplets of white adipose tissue. Lipid droplet-associated TGs are also found in most nonadipose tissues, including liver, cardiac muscle, and skeletal muscle. The mobilization of FAs from all fat depots depends on the activity of TG hydrolases. Currently, three enzymes are known to hydrolyze TG, the well-studied hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and monoglyceride lipase (MGL), discovered more than 40 years ago, as well as the relatively recently identified adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL). The phenotype of HSL- and ATGL-deficient mice, as well as the disease pattern of patients with defective ATGL activity (due to mutation in ATGL or in the enzyme's activator, CGI-58), suggest that the consecutive action of ATGL, HSL, and MGL is responsible for the complete hydrolysis of a TG molecule. The complex regulation of these enzymes by numerous, partially uncharacterized effectors creates the "lipolysome," a complex metabolic network that contributes to the control of lipid and energy homeostasis. This review focuses on the structure, function, and regulation of lipolytic enzymes with a special emphasis on ATGL.

Abstract
The ability to store energy in the form of energy-dense TAG (triacylglycerol) and to mobilize these stores rapidly during times of low carbohydrate availability (fasting or famine) or during heightened metabolic demand (exercise or cold-stress) is a highly conserved process essential for survival. Today, in the presence of nutrient excess and sedentary lifestyles, the regulation of this pathway is viewed as an important therapeutic target for disease prevention, as elevated circulating fatty acids in obesity contribute to many aspects of the metabolic syndrome including hepatic steatosis, atherosclerosis and insulin resistance. In the present review, we discuss the metabolic regulation and function of TAG lipases with a focus on HSL (hormone-sensitive lipase), ATGL (adipose triacylglycerol lipase) and newly identified members of the lipolytic proteome.

Abstract
In white adipose tissue (WAT), hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) can mediate lipolysis, a central pathway in obesity and diabetes. Gene-targeted HSL-deficient (HSL-/-) mice with no detectable HSL peptide or activity (measured as cholesteryl esterase) have WAT abnormalities, including low mass, marked heterogeneity of cell diameter, increased diacylglycerol content, and low beta-adrenergic stimulation of adipocyte lipolysis. Three transgenic mouse strains preferentially expressing human HSL in WAT were bred to a HSL-/- background. One, HSL-/- N, expresses normal human HSL (41.3 +/- 9.1% of normal activity); two express a serine-to-alanine mutant (S554A) initially hypothesized to be constitutively active: HSL-/- ML, 50.3 +/- 12.3% of normal, and HSL-/- MH, 69.8 +/- 15.8% of normal. In WAT, HSL-/- N mice resembled HSL+/+ controls in WAT mass, histology, diacylglyceride content, and lipolytic response to beta-adrenergic agents. In contrast, HSL-/- ML and HSL-/- MH mice resembled nontransgenic HSL-/- mice, except that diacylglycerol content and perirenal and inguinal WAT masses approached normal in HSL-/- MH mice. Therefore, 1) WAT expression of normal human HSL markedly improves HSL-/- WAT biochemically, physiologically, and morphologically; 2) similar levels of S554A HSL have a low physiological effect despite being active in vitro; and 3) diacylglycerol accumulation is not essential for the development of the characteristic WAT pathology of HSL-/- mice.

Abstract
Although described initially as an intracellular adipocyte-specific triacylglycerol lipase, it is now clear that HSL (hormone-sensitive lipase) is expressed in multiple tissues and plays a number of roles in lipid metabolism, including that of a neutral cholesteryl ester hydrolase. The major isoform is a single polypeptide with a molecular mass of approx. 84 kDa and which comprises three major domains: a catalytic domain, a regulatory domain encoding several phosphorylation sites and an N-terminal domain involved in protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions. The activity of HSL is regulated acutely by several mechanisms, including reversible phosphorylation by a number of different protein kinases, translocation to different sites within the cell and interaction with a number of proteins, some of which may serve to direct the inhibitory products of HSL away from the protein. It is also apparent from work with HSL null mice that more than one enzyme species may be classified as a hormone-sensitive lipase. The possible presence of HSL in macrophages remains controversial, and the role of the protein in pancreatic beta-cells has yet to be fully elucidated. Altered expression of HSL in different cell types may be associated with a number of pathological states, including obesity, atherosclerosis and Type II diabetes.

Abstract
Hormone-sensitive lipase, the rate-limiting enzyme of intracellular TG hydrolysis, is a major determinant of fatty acid mobilization in adipose tissue as well as other tissues. It plays a pivotal role in lipid metabolism, overall energy homeostasis, and, presumably, cellular events involving fatty acid signaling. Detailed knowledge about its structure and regulation may provide information regarding the pathogenesis of such human diseases as obesity and diabetes and may generate concepts for new treatments of these diseases. The current review summarizes the recent advances with regard to hormone-sensitive lipase structure and molecular mechanisms involved in regulating its activity and lipolysis in general. A summary of the current knowledge regarding regulation of expression, potential involvement in lipid disorders, and role in tissues other than adipose tissue is also provided.

Abstract
Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a cytosolic neutral lipase that hydrolyzes intracellular stores of triacylglycerols and cholesteryl esters. HSL activity is regulated via phosphorylation-dephosphorylation, with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase increasing activity following phosphorylation of a single serine and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II phosphorylating another serine at a basal site. The current studies used site-directed mutagenesis to show that Ser-563 of rat HSL is phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and that Ser-565 is phosphorylated by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. Mutation of Ser-563-->Ala eliminated HSL hydrolytic activity against cholesteryl ester, triacylglycerol, and diacylglycerol substrates to the same extent as mutation of Ser-423-->Ala, the presumed catalytic site. Mutation of Ser-565-->Ala modestly decreased HSL activity. In contrast, mutation of Ser-563-->Asp preserved HSL hydrolytic activity and even increased activity 20% above the control wild-type enzyme. Molecular modeling of the catalytic pocket of HSL suggested the involvement of Val-710. Mutation of Val-710-->Ala resulted in an 85% loss of HSL hydrolytic activity. The results of these studies illustrate the importance of the presence of a hydroxyl group or negative charge at residue 563, either for proper conformation of rat HSL or for proper stabilization of substrate to allow maintenance of hydrolytic activity, as well as the importance of the involvement of additional amino acids in the catalytic pocket of the enzyme.

Abstract
Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) plays a key role in lipid metabolism and overall energy homoeostasis, by controlling the release of fatty acids from stored triglycerides in adipose tissue. Lipases and esterases form a protein superfamily with a common structural fold, called the alpha/beta-hydrolase fold, and a catalytic triad of serine, aspartic or glutamic acid and histidine. Previous alignments between HSL and lipase 2 of Moraxella TA144 have been extended to cover a much larger part of the HSL sequence. From these extended alignments, possible sites for the catalytic triad and alpha/beta-hydrolase fold are suggested. Furthermore, it is proposed that HSL contains a structural domain with catalytic capacity and a regulatory module attached, as well as a structural N-terminal domain unique to this enzyme. In order to test the proposed domain structure, rat HSL was overexpressed and purified to homogeneity using a baculovirus/insect-cell expression system. The purification, resulting in > 99% purity, involved detergent solubilization followed by anion-exchange chromatography and hydrophobic-interaction chromatography. The purified recombinant enzyme was identical to rat adipose-tissue HSL with regard to specific activity, substrate specificity and ability to serve as a substrate for cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The recombinant HSL was subjected to denaturation by guanidine hydrochloride and limited proteolysis. These treatments resulted in more extensive loss of activity against phospholipid-stabilized lipid substrates than against water-soluble substrates, suggesting that the hydrolytic activity can be separated from recognition of lipid substrates. These data support the concept that HSL has at least two major domains.

Abstract
Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a cytosolic neutral lipase that hydrolyzes intracellular stores of triglycerides within adipocytes and is thought to be the rate limiting enzyme in lipolysis; however, direct evidence to prove this concept has been lacking. The present study was designed to establish the function of HSL in adipocytes. A 2360-bp fragment containing the entire HSL coding region was cloned into the vector pCEP4 and was used to transfect the 3T3-F442A adipogenic cell line. Nondifferentiated, transfected cells were screened for HSL overexpression by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy and confirmed by immunoblotting cell extracts with anti-HSL/fusion protein antibodies and by Northern blots for HSL mRNA. Stable transfectants overexpressing HSL were obtained and cloned. Compared with undifferentiated 3T3-F442A cells transfected with pCEP4 not containing the insert (vector alone) where HSL expression was very low, undifferentiated HSL transfectants had up to a 100-fold increase in HSL activity. Likewise, immunoreactive HSL protein and HSL mRNA levels were increased up to 100-fold in HSL transfectants. When confluent cells were allowed to differentiate by exposure to insulin, HSL expression increased in vector alone transfected cells, but remained below that observed in HSL transfectants. A similar degree of differentiation was seen in both vector alone and HSL transfectants when based on the induction of lipoprotein lipase. Cellular triglyceride content increased dramatically in the vector alone transfected cells while triglyceride content was markedly reduced in the HSL transfectants. The expression of late markers of adipocyte differentiation, such as aP2 and GPDH, was diminished and appeared to vary with the degree to which HSL was overexpressed and the cellular triglyceride content was reduced. Thus, the overexpression of HSL in 3T3-F442A cells prevents differentiated adipocytes from taking on the appearance of fat cells, i.e., accumulating triglyceride. Furthermore, the overexpression of HSL directly or indirectly attenuates the expression of several genes that appear during late adipocyte differentiation.

Abstract
Phosphorylation site 2 on bovine hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), which is phosphorylated in vitro by the AMP-activated protein kinase, has been found also to be phosphorylated in vitro by glycogen synthase kinase-4. Peptide mapping of HSL phosphorylated in vitro and in isolated adipocytes demonstrates that this site corresponds to the basal phosphorylation site on HSL, which is phosphorylated in intact adipocytes in the absence of lipolytic stimuli. Site 2 has been proposed to have an antilipolytic role in that phosphorylation at this site greatly reduces subsequent phosphorylation (at site 1) and activation of HSL by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. Further evidence for an antilipolytic role of site 2 has been obtained using a synthetic peptide based on the sequence around sites 1 and 2. Phosphorylation of the peptide at site 2 totally prevents the subsequent phosphorylation of site 1 and vice versa.

Abstract
The effect of insulin on the state of phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase, cellular cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity and lipolysis was investigated in isolated adipocytes. Increased phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase in response to isoproterenol stimulation was closely paralleled by increased lipolysis. Maximal phosphorylation and lipolysis was obtained when the cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratio was greater than or equal to 0.1, and this corresponded to a 50% increase in the state of phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase. Insulin (1 nM) reduced cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity and also reduced lipolysis with both cAMP-dependent and cAMP-independent antilipolytic effects up to an activity ratio of approximately 0.4, above which the antilipolytic effect was lost. Insulin caused a decrease in the state of phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase at all levels of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity. Under basal conditions, with cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity at a minimum, this reflected a dephosphorylation of the basal phosphorylation site of hormone-sensitive lipase in a manner not mediated by cAMP. When the cAMP-dependent protein kinase was stimulated to phosphorylate the regulatory phosphorylation site of hormone-sensitive lipase, the insulin-induced dephosphorylation occurred both at the basal and regulatory sites. At low levels of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity ratios (0.05-0.1), dephosphorylation of the regulatory site correlated with reduced cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity, but not at higher activity ratios (greater than 0.1). Stimulation of cells with isoproterenol produced a transient (1-5 min) peak of cAMP-dependent protein kinase activity and of phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase. The state of phosphorylation also showed a transient peak when the protein kinase was maximally and constantly activated. In the presence of raised levels of cellular cAMP, insulin (1 nM) caused a rapid (t1/2 approximately 1 min) dephosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase. In unstimulated cells the reduction in phosphorylation caused by insulin was distinctly slower (t1/2 approximately 5 min). These findings are interpreted to suggest that insulin affects the state of phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase and lipolysis through a cAMP-dependent pathway, involving reduction of cAMP, and through a cAMP-independent pathway, involving activation of a protein phosphatase activity that dephosphorylates both the regulatory and basal phosphorylation sites of hormone-sensitive lipase.

Abstract
Hormone-sensitive lipase is phosphorylated at a single site (site 2) in vitro by the AMP-activated protein kinase, without any direct effect on the activity of the enzyme. The amino acid sequence around this site has been determined. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II also phosphorylates hormone-sensitive lipase predominantly at this site, whilst cyclic-GMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates exclusively the regulatory site (site 1) which is also phosphorylated by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation of site 2 has been found to inhibit subsequent phosphorylation and activation of hormone-sensitive lipase by the cyclic-AMP-dependent and cyclic-GMP-dependent protein kinases, indicating that site-2 phosphorylation may have an antilipolytic role in vivo.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of the basal site with glycogen synthase kinase-4 enhanced the rate of phosphorylation of the regulatory site by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase 1.7-fold. In contrast, the phosphorylation state of the regulatory site did not affect the rate of phosphorylation of the basal site with glycogen synthase kinase-4. The rate of dephosphorylation of either the regulatory or the basal phosphorylation site by protein phosphatase-1, 2A or 2C was independent of the phosphorylation state of the other site. These results suggest that the basal phosphorylation site could play an indirect role in the control of the hormone-sensitive lipase activity in the adipocyte by functioning as a recognition site for the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase in the phosphorylation of the activity-controlling regulatory phosphorylation site in response to lipolytic hormones.

Abstract
The primary structure of a region on hormone-sensitive lipase was determined to be: Lys-Thr-Glu-Pro-Met-Arg-Arg-Ser- Val-Ser-Glu-Ala-Ala-Leu-Thr-Gln-Pro-Glu-Gly-Pro-Leu-Gly-Thr-Asp-Ser-Leu-Lys. Ser-8 was the only residue in the intact protein phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. However, Ser-10 also appeared to be present in a phosphorylated form, suggesting that it is a target for a distinct protein kinase in vivo.

Abstract
The activity of hormone-sensitive lipase, the rate-limiting enzyme in adipose tissue lipolysis, is controlled by cAMP-mediated phosphorylation at a specific regulatory phosphorylation site. The lipase is also phosphorylated at a site, termed basal, without any effects on its activity [Strålfors et al. (1984) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 81, 3317-3321]. The capacity of protein phosphatase-1, 2A, 2B and 2C to dephosphorylate the lipase, selectively phosphorylated by glycogen synthase kinase-4 and cAMP-dependent protein kinase at the basal and regulatory phosphorylation sites, was compared with that towards glycogen phosphorylase and phosphorylase kinase (alpha subunit). Protein phosphatase-1, 2A and 2C were found to dephosphorylate both phosphorylation sites of hormone-sensitive lipase, while protein phosphatase-2B had no measureable activity towards any of the sites. When the activities of protein phosphatase-1, 2A and 2C were normalized with respect to the reference substrates, they were found to dephosphorylate the lipase regulatory site in the approximate relations of 1:4:3 and the basal site in the approximate relations of 1:6:4. Protein phosphatase-1 showed 20% higher and protein phosphatase-2A and 2C 80% higher activity towards the basal site compared to the regulatory site. The two phosphorylation sites of the lipase were comparable to good substrates for protein phosphatase-2A and 2C, but relatively poor substrates for protein phosphatase-1. Protein phosphatase-2C activity towards the lipase was completely dependent on Mg2+ with a half-maximal effect at 3 mM. Protamine increased the lipase dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase-1 3-5-fold with half-maximal effect at 0.6 microgram/ml, and by protein phosphatase-2A about 2-fold with half-maximal effect at 3-5 micrograms/ml, thus illustrating the potential for control of these lipase phosphatase activities.
