Abstract
HL is synthesized in hepatocytes and functions while bound to heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) in sinusoidal endothelial cells. The HL-mediated uptake of lipoprotein requires cell-surface HSPG. The present study tested whether HL plays a role in the production of HSPG. The production of HSPG in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was determined by measuring the incorporation of (35)SO(4) into PGs. HL-producing HL-CHO cells showed approximately 30% more cellular PG than did wild-type (WT) cells. In contrast, PG production in cells producing a membrane-anchored HL-glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) that was not bound to HSPG was virtually identical to that in WT cells. When purified HL was added to the WT- or HL-GPI cells, PG production increased significantly to a level similar to that of the HL-secreting cells, suggesting that the binding of HL to HSPG triggered the increased HSPG production. Heparin reduced PG production in HL-producing cells, confirming that PG production is stimulated only when HL is present as a ligand for HSPG. Real-time PCR and Northern blots demonstrated that PG production was significantly reduced in animals lacking HL. Together, these data suggest that the binding of HL to PG on the cell surface exerts a positive feedback on cellular PG production.

Abstract
Hepatic lipase (HL) on the surface of hepatocytes and endothelial cells lining hepatic sinusoids, the adrenal glands, and the ovary hydrolyzes triglycerides and phospholipids of circulating lipoproteins. Its expression significantly enhances low density lipoprotein (LDL) uptake via the LDL receptor pathway. A specific interaction between LPL, a homologous molecule to HL, and apoB has been described (Choi, S. Y., Sivaram, P., Walker, D. E., Curtiss, L. K., Gretch, D. G., Sturley, S. L., Attie, A. D., Deckelbaum, R. J., and Goldberg, I. J. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 8081-8086). The present studies tested the hypothesis that HL enhances the uptake of lipoproteins by a specific interaction of HL with apoB. On a ligand blot, HL bound to apoB26, 48, and 100 but not to apoE or apoAI. HL binding to LDL in a plate assay with LDL-coated plates was significantly greater than to bovine serum albumin-coated plates. Neither heat denatured HL nor bacterial fusion protein of HL bound to LDL in the plate assays. 125I-LDL bound to HL-saturated heparin-agarose gel with a Kd of 52 nM, and somewhat surprisingly, this binding was not inhibited by excess LPL. In cell culture experiments HL enhanced the uptake of 125I-LDL at both 4 and 37 degreesC. The enhanced binding and uptake of LDL was significantly inhibited by monoclonal anti-apoB antibodies. In contrast to LPL, both amino- and carboxyl-terminal antibodies blocked the apoB interaction with HL to the same extent. Thus, we conclude that there is a unique interaction between HL and apoB that facilitates the uptake of apoB-containing lipoproteins by cells where HL is present.

Abstract
Bile salt-dependent lipase (BSDL, E.C. 3.1.1.-) is a digestive enzyme secreted by the pancreatic acinar cell. Once in the duodenum, the enzyme, upon activation by primary bile salts, hydrolyzes dietary lipid esters such as cholesteryl esters and lipid-soluble vitamin esters. This enzyme is partially transferred from the duodenum or pancreas to the circulation where it has been postulated to exert a systemic action on atheroma-generating oxidized-low density lipoprotein (LDL). In the present study, sera from 40 healthy normolipidemic volunteers were used to investigate the possible linkage between circulating BSDL, lipids, and lipoproteins. We showed, firstly, that pancreatic-like BSDL activity can be detected in these serums. Secondly, BSDL activity increased significantly with the level of LDL-cholesterol and was also positively linked to the serum concentration of Apo B100 and Apo A-I. Thirdly, we also established that BSDL was associated with LDL, in part by a specific interaction with Apo B100, while no interaction was found with Apo A-I. No linkage with other recorded parameters (triglycerides, phospholipids, and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol) was detected. Because an increase in LDL-cholesterol represents an important risk factor for atheroma, the concomitant increase in BSDL, which can metabolize atherogenic LDL, suggests for the first time that this circulating enzyme may exert a positive effect against atherosclerosis.

Abstract
The enzyme hepatic lipase may play several roles in lipoprotein metabolism. Recent investigation has suggested a role for the enzyme in lipoprotein and/or lipoprotein lipid uptake. To study this, a simple isolated system that mimics the in vivo system would be desirable. The enzyme is secreted by the hepatic parenchymal cell but exists, and presumably exerts its effects, while bound to capillary endothelial cells in the liver, adrenal gland, and the ovary. We constructed a cDNA that encodes the expression of a chimeric protein composed of rat hepatic lipase and the signal sequence for the addition of the glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor from human decay-accelerating factor. When transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells this gave rise to a cell population that had immunoreactive hepatic lipase on the cell surface. Cloning of the transfected cells produced several cell lines that expressed the chimeric protein bound to the cell surface by a GPI anchor. This was documented by demonstrating incorporation of [3H]ethanolamine into anti-hepatic lipase immunoprecipitable material; in addition, hepatic lipase was released from the cells by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C but not by heparin. Phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C treatment of cells expressing the anchored lipase released material that comigrated with hepatic lipase on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and was immunoreactive with antibody to the cross-reacting determinant of GPI anchors. Cell lysates containing the anchored protein contained salt-resistant lipase activity, a known feature of the secreted hepatic lipase; thus it appears that these cells have a surface-anchored hepatic lipase molecule. Although it was not possible to demonstrate lipolysis by the enzyme while it was on the cell surface for technical reasons, the protein produced by these cells was active when studied in cell membranes. The ability of the cells to take up lipoproteins was studied. The cells demonstrated an increased affinity for low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor mediated uptake of LDL. They did not, however, demonstrate any enhanced binding or removal of chylomicron remnants. With respect to LDL and remnants, the cells expressing anchored lipase behaved similarly to CHO cell that expressed secreted hepatic lipase. The cells expressing anchored hepatic lipase had a marked increase in the uptake of high density lipoprotein and high density lipoprotein cholesteryl ester when compared to that seen with CHO cells secreting hepatic lipase. This increase occurred primarily via the selective pathway, and was not reduced by addition of anti-LDL receptor or anti-hepatic lipase antibodies or the receptor-associated protein. Together the results suggest that hepatic lipase, when bound to the cell surface by a GPI anchor, plays a role in enhancing lipoprotein uptake. For LDL this may involve the provision of a second foot for particle binding, thus enhancing affinity for the LDL receptor. For chylomicron remnants an additional molecule or molecules are necessary to mediate this effect. For HDL, the enzyme facilitates uptake of cholesteryl ester primarily by the selective pathway.

Abstract
Phenylboronates are competitive inhibitors of serine. hydrolases including lipases. We studied the effect of m-aminophenylboronate on triglyceride-hydrolyzing activity of hepatic lipase (EC 3.1,1.3). m-Aminophenylboronate inhibited hepatic lipase activity with a Ki value of 55 microM. Furthermore, m-aminophenylboronate protected hepatic lipase activity from inhibition by di-isopropyl fluorophosphate, an irreversible active site inhibitor of serine hydrolases. Inhibition of hepatic lipase activity by m-aminophenylboronate was pH-dependent. The inhibition was maximal at pH 7.5, while at pH 10 it was almost non-existent. These data were used to develop a purification procedure for postheparin plasma hepatic lipase and lipoprotein lipase. The method is a combination of m-aminophenylboronate and heparin-Sepharose affinity chromatographies. Hepatic lipase was purified to homogeneity as analyzed on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The specific activity of purified hepatic lipase was 5.46 mmol free fatty acids h-1 mg-1 protein with a total purification factor of 14,400 and a final recovery of approximately 20%. The recovery of hepatic lipase activity in m-aminophenylboronate affinity chromatography step was 95%. The purified lipoprotein lipase was a homogeneous protein with a specific activity of 8.27 mmol free fatty acids h-1 mg-1. The purification factor was 23,400 and the final recovery approximately 20%. The recovery of lipoprotein lipase activity in the m-aminophenylboronate affinity chromatography step was 87%. The phenylboronate affinity chromatography step can be used for purification of serine hydrolases which interact with boronates.

Abstract
Hepatic lipase (HL) and lipoprotein lipase (LpL) are structurally related lipolytic enzymes that have distinct functions in lipoprotein catabolism. In addition to its lipolytic activity, LpL binds to very low density lipoproteins and promotes their interaction with the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) (Chappell, D. A., Fry, G. L., Waknitz, M. A., Muhonen, L. E., Pladet M. W., Iverius, P. H., and Strickland, D. K. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 14168-14175). In vitro binding assays revealed that HL also binds to purified LRP with a KD of 52 nM. Its binding to LRP is inhibited by the 39-kDa receptor-associated protein (RAP), a known LRP antagonist, and by heparin. 125I-Labeled HL is rapidly internalized and degraded by HepG2 cell lines, and approximately 70% of the cellular internalization and degradation is blocked by either exogenously added RAP or anti-LRP IgG. Mouse fibroblasts that lack LRP display a greatly diminished capacity to internalize and degrade HL when compared to control fibroblasts. These data indicate that LRP-mediated cellular uptake of HL accounts for a substantial portion of the internalization of this molecule. Proteoglycans have been shown to participate in the clearance of LpL, and consequently a role for proteoglycans in HL clearance pathway was also investigated. Chinese hamster ovary cell lines that are deficient in proteoglycan biosynthesis were unable to internalize or degrade 125I-HL despite the fact that these cells express LRP. Thus, the initial binding of HL to cell surface proteoglycans is an obligatory step for the delivery of the enzyme to LRP for endocytosis. A small, but significant, amount of 125I-HL was internalized in LRP deficient cells indicating that an LRP-independent pathway for HL internalization does exist. This pathway could involve cell surface proteoglycans, the LDL receptor, or some other unidentified surface protein.

Abstract
We used biochemical and structural approaches to analyze the influence of gonadotropic hormones on the association of hepatic lipase with specific subsets of ovarian blood vessels. Western blotting was used to detect this enzyme in effluent collected from heparin-perfused ovaries of nonhormone-treated immature rats and those primed with pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (PMSG) alone or in combination with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). The effects of these hormones on hepatic lipase distribution among ovarian blood vessels was assessed before and after hCG and/or PMSG treatment by immunofluorescence and immunogold cytochemistry. For the latter, immunoreagents and fixative were delivered directly to chilled, unfixed ovaries by in situ vascular perfusion. Data from biochemical and structural analyses indicated that hepatic lipase was absent from nonhormone-treated ovaries. As shown by Western blotting of ovarian effluent, the enzyme appeared following treatment with PMSG and PMSG-hCG; it increased in amount in a time-dependent manner, with a transient decline in the early hours after hCG injection. Enzyme levels paralleled growth and vascularization of follicles and corpora lutea; the fall tended to coincide with early events in luteal angiogenesis. Immunogold microscopy showed that hepatic lipase was abundant in thin-walled blood vessels of theca interna of follicles, corpora lutea, and interstitial cells but sparse in those of the stroma. Moreover, during neovascularization of differentiating corpora lutea, vascular sprouts arising from hepatic lipase-laden thecal vessels appeared to lose, then regain, the enzyme as development progressed. Our findings thus suggest 1) that hormones influence the establishment of endothelial cell heterogeneity within the microvasculature of a single organ and 2) that development of novel endothelial cell properties in specific subsets of blood vessels underlies compartmentalization of function within a tissue.
