Abstract
Elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDLc) is one of the most well-established risk factors for cardiovascular disease, while high levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (HDLc) have been associated with protection from cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide; thus it is important to understand mechanisms that impact LDLc and HDLc metabolism. In this chapter, we will discuss molecular processes by which phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate, PI(4,5)P2, is thought to modulate LDLc or HDLc. Section 1 will provide an overview of cholesterol in the circulation, discussing processes that modulate the various forms of lipoproteins (LDL and HDL) carrying cholesterol. Section 2 will describe how a PI(4,5)P2 phosphatase, transmembrane protein 55B (TMEM55B), impacts circulating LDLc levels through its ability to regulate lysosomal decay of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), the primary receptor for hepatic LDL uptake. Section 3 will discuss how PI(4,5)P2 interacts with apolipoprotein A-I (apoA1), the key apolipoprotein on HDL. In addition to direct mechanisms of PI(4,5)P2 action on circulating cholesterol, Sect. 4 will review how PI(4,5)P2 may indirectly impact LDLc and HDLc by affecting insulin action. Last, as cholesterol is controlled through intricate negative feedback loops, Sect. 5 will describe how PI(4,5)P2 is regulated by cholesterol.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence points to the causal role of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and their cholesterol-enriched remnants in atherogenesis. Genetic studies in particular have not only revealed a relationship between plasma triglyceride levels and the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, but have also identified key proteins responsible for the regulation of triglyceride transport. Kinetic studies in humans using stable isotope tracers have been especially useful in delineating the function of these proteins and revealing the hitherto unappreciated complexity of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism. Given that triglyceride is an essential energy source for mammals, triglyceride transport is regulated by numerous mechanisms that balance availability with the energy demands of the body. Ongoing investigations are focused on determining the consequences of dysregulation as a result of either dietary imprudence or genetic variation that increases the risk of atherosclerosis and pancreatitis. The identification of molecular control mechanisms involved in triglyceride metabolism has laid the groundwork for a 'precision-medicine' approach to therapy. Novel pharmacological agents under development have specific molecular targets within a regulatory framework, and their deployment heralds a new era in lipid-lowering-mediated prevention of disease. In this Review, we outline what is known about the dysregulation of triglyceride transport in human hypertriglyceridaemia.

Abstract
Our aim was to evaluate the markers of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress among children and adolescents with obesity in relation to metabolic alterations. Calreticulin (CALR) and PDIA3 circulating levels were assessed on 52 pediatric subjects-26 patients with obesity and 26 normal weight controls (4-18 years)-enrolled in a pilot study. Clinical and metabolic evaluations were performed (BMI-SDS, insulin, and glucose at fasting and during an oral glucose tolerance test, lipid profile, blood pressure), and metabolic syndrome was detected. PDIA3 was higher (p < 0.02) and CALR slightly higher in children with obesity than in controls. PDIA3 was related positively to the Tanner stages. Both PDIA3 and CALR were positively associated with insulin resistance, cholesterol, and triglycerides and the number of criteria identifying metabolic syndrome and negatively with fasting and post-challenge insulin sensitivity. Our preliminary findings suggest the existence of a link between ER stress and metabolic changes behind obesity complications even at the pediatric age. CALR and PDIA3 could be early markers of insulin resistance and dyslipidemia-related ER stress useful to stratify patients at high risk of further complications.

Abstract
Triglycerides are critical lipids as they provide an energy source that is both compact and efficient. Due to its hydrophobic nature triglyceride molecules can pack together densely and so be stored in adipose tissue. To be transported in the aqueous medium of plasma, triglycerides have to be incorporated into lipoprotein particles along with other components such as cholesterol, phospholipid and associated structural and regulatory apolipoproteins. Here we discuss the physiology of normal triglyceride metabolism, and how impaired metabolism induces hypertriglyceridemia and its pathogenic consequences including atherosclerosis. We also discuss established and novel therapies to reduce triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia has been widely proven to contribute to cardiovascular diseases and other metabolic disorders, especially in insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. The overproduction of VLDL is a significant characteristic of dyslipidemia, indicating the dysfunction of hepatic lipid metabolism, from triglyceride synthesis to transport. The fructose-fed Syrian golden hamster is an established animal model for the study of VLDL assembly with insulin resistance, however, it remains unknown how VLDL production is regulated at the transcriptional level due to the absence of a complete hamster genome. Here, we performed deep sequencing and constructed an mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA interaction network of Syrian golden hamster liver in order to reveal the global transcription profile and find potential RNA molecular regulation of VLDL production. We identified 4,450 novel multi-exon hamster lncRNAs and 755 miRNAs expressed in liver. Additionally, 146 differentially expressed coding genes, 27 differentially expressed lncRNA genes, as well as 16 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified. We then constructed an mRNA-miRNA-lncRNA interaction network that may potentially regulate VLDL production, and interestingly found several microRNA-centered regulatory networks. In order to verify our interpretation, miR-486 was selected for further experiments. Overexpression or down-regulation of miR-486 in fructose-fed hamsters resulted in altered hepatic expression of proteins involved in VLDL production, and in modulated levels of circulating VLDL. Our findings implicated that miR-486 is a potential regulator of circulating VLDL levels. These results provide new insights and a valuable resource for further study of the molecular mechanisms of VLDL secretion.

Abstract
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) particles exhibit several unusual properties that are not found in other enveloped RNA viruses, most notably their low buoyant density and interaction with serum lipoproteins. With the advent of systems to grow HCV in cell culture, the molecular basis of HCV particle assembly and release can now be addressed. The process of virus assembly involves protein-protein interactions between viral structural and nonstructural proteins and the coordinated action of host factors. This chapter reviews our current understanding of these interactions and factors.

Abstract
Lipid homeostasis is maintained through the coordination of lipid metabolism in various tissues, including adipose tissue and the liver. The disruption of lipid homeostasis often results in the development of metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, liver steatosis, and cardiovascular diseases. Cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation factor 45-like effector family proteins, including Cidea, Cideb, and Fsp27 (Cidec), are emerging as important regulators of various lipid metabolic pathways and play pivotal roles in the development of metabolic disorders. This review summarizes the latest cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation factor 45-like effector protein discoveries related to the control of lipid metabolism, with emphasis on the role of these proteins in lipid droplet growth in adipocytes and in the regulation of very low-density lipoprotein lipidation and maturation in hepatocytes.

Abstract
In Tangier disease, absence of ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) results in reduced plasma HDL and elevated triglyceride (TG) levels. We hypothesized that hepatocyte ABCA1 regulates VLDL TG secretion through nascent HDL production. Silencing of ABCA1 expression in oleate-stimulated rat hepatoma cells resulted in: 1) decreased large nascent HDL (>10 nm diameter) and increased small nascent HDL (<10 nm) formation, 2) increased large buoyant VLDL1 particle secretion, and 3) decreased phosphatidylinositol-3 (PI3) kinase activation. Nascent HDL-containing conditioned medium from rat hepatoma cells or HEK293 cells transfected with ABCA1 was effective in increasing PI3 kinase activation and reducing VLDL TG secretion in ABCA1-silenced hepatoma cells. Addition of isolated large nascent HDL particles to ABCA1-silenced hepatoma cells inhibited VLDL TG secretion to a greater extent than small nascent HDL. Similarly, addition of recombinant HDL, but not human plasma HDL, was effective in attenuating TG secretion and increasing PI3 kinase activation in ABCA1-silenced cells. Collectively, these data suggest that large nascent HDL particles, assembled by hepatic ABCA1, generate a PI3 kinase-mediated autocrine signal that attenuates VLDL maturation and TG secretion. This pathway may explain the elevated plasma TG concentration that occurs in most Tangier subjects and may also account, in part, for the inverse relationship between plasma HDL and TG concentrations in individuals with compromised ABCA1 function.

Abstract
Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB) is a large amphipathic lipid-binding protein that is synthesized by hepatocytes and used to assemble and stabilize very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). It may have been derived through evolution from other lipid-associating proteins such as microsomal triglyceride transfer protein or vitellogenin. The correct folding of apoB requires assistance from chaperone proteins in co-translational lipidation, disulfide bond formation, and glycosylation. Any impairment in these processes results in co-translational targeting of the misfolded apoB molecule for proteasomal degradation. In fact, most of the regulation of apoB production is mediated by intracellular degradation. ApoB that misfolds post-translationally, perhaps as a result of oxidative stress, may be eliminated through autophagy. This review focuses on the proposed pentapartite domain structure of apoB, the role that each domain plays in the binding of lipid species and regulation of apoB synthesis, and the process of VLDL assembly. The factors involved in the recognition, ubiquitination, and proteasomal delivery of defective apoB molecules are also discussed.

Abstract
Intracellular assembly of chylomicrons (CM) occurs in intestinal enterocytes through a series of complex vesicular interactions. CM are transported from the ER to the Golgi using a specialized vesicular compartment called the prechylomicron transport vesicle (PCTV). In this study, PCTVs were isolated from the enteric ER of the Syrian Golden hamster, and characterized using 2-DE and MS. Proteomic profiles of PCTV-associated proteins were developed with the intention of identifying proteins involved in the formation, transport, lipidation, and assembly of CM particles. Positively identified proteins included those involved in lipoprotein assembly, namely microsomal triglyceride transfer protein and apolipoprotein B-48, as well as proteins involved in vesicular transport, such as Sar1 and vesicle-associated membrane protein 7. Other groups of proteins found were chaperones, intracellular vesicular trafficking proteins, fatty acid-binding proteins, and lipid-related proteins. These findings have increased our understanding of the transport vesicle involved in the intracellular assembly and transport of CM and can provide insight into potential cellular factors responsible for dysregulation of intestinal CM production.

Abstract
Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is a nonexchangeable apolipoprotein. During lipoprotein assembly, it recruits phospholipids and triacylglycerols (TAG) into TAG-rich lipoprotein particles. It remains bound to secreted lipoproteins during lipid metabolism in plasma. The beta1 region (residues 827-1880) of apoB has a high amphipathic beta strand (AbetaS) content and is proposed to be one region anchoring apoB to lipoproteins. The AbetaS-rich region between apoB37 and apoB41 (residues 1694-1880) was cloned, expressed, and purified. The interfacial properties were studied at the triolein/water (TO/W) and air/water (A/W) interfaces. ApoB[37-41] is surface-active and adsorbs to the TO/W interface. After adsorption the unbound apoB[37-41] was removed from the aqueous phase. Adsorbed apoB[37-41] did not desorb and could not be forced off by increasing the surface pressure up to 23 mN/m. ApoB[37-41] adsorbed on the TO/W interface was completely elastic when compressed and expanded by +/-13% of its area. On an A/W interface, the apoB[37-41] monolayer became solid when compressed to 4 mN/m pressure indicating extended beta-sheet formation. It could be reversibly compressed and expanded between low pressure and its collapse pressure (35 mN/m). Our studies confirm that the AbetaS structure of apoB[37-41] is a lipid-binding motif that can irreversibly anchor apoB to lipoproteins.

Abstract
Fats provide a concentrated source of energy for multicellular organisms. The efficient transport of fats through aqueous biological environments raises issues concerning effective delivery to target tissues. Furthermore, the utilization of fatty acids presents a high risk of cytotoxicity. Improving the efficiency of fat transport while simultaneously minimizing the cytotoxic risk confers distinct selective advantages. In humans, most of the plasma cholesterol is associated with low-density lipoprotein (LDL), a metabolic by-product of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), which originates in the liver. However, the functions of VLDL are not clear. This paper reviews the evidence that LDL arose as a by-product during the natural selection of VLDL. The latter, in turn, evolved as a means of improving the efficiency of diet-derived fatty acid storage and utilization, as well as neutralizing the potential cytotoxicity of fatty acids while conserving their advantages as a concentrated energy source. The evolutionary biology of lipid transport processes has provided a fascinating insight into how and why these VLDL functions emerged during animal evolution. As causes of historical origin must be separated from current utilities, our spandrel-LDL theory proposes that LDL is a spandrel of VLDL selection, which appeared non-adaptively and may later have become crucial for vertebrate fitness.

Abstract
Because the levels of secreted apolipoprotein B (apoB) directly correlate with circulating serum cholesterol levels, there is a pressing need to define how the biosynthesis of this protein is regulated. Most commonly, the concentration of a secreted, circulating protein corresponds to transcriptionally and/or translationally regulated events. By contrast, circulating apoB levels are controlled by degradative pathways in the cell that select the protein for disposal. This article summarizes recent findings on two apoB disposal pathways, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation and autophagy, and describes a role for post-ER degradation in the increased circulating lipid levels in insulin-resistant diabetics.

Abstract
Neutral lipids are stored in the cytosol in so-called lipid droplets. These are dynamic organelles with neutral lipids as the core surrounded by a monolayer of amphipathic lipids (phospholipids and cholesterol) and specific proteins (PAT proteins and proteins involved in the turnover of lipids and in the formation and trafficking of the droplets). Lipid droplets are formed at microsomal membranes as primordial droplets with a diameter of 0.1-0.4 microm and increase in size by fusion. In this article, we review the assembly and fusion of lipid droplets, and the processes involved in the secretion of triglycerides. Triglycerides are secreted from cells by two principally different processes. In the mammary gland, lipid droplets interact with specific regions of the plasma membrane and bud off with an envelope consisting of the membrane, to form milk globules. In the liver and intestine, very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) and chylomicrons are secreted by using the secretory pathway of the cell. Finally, we briefly review the importance of lipid droplets in the development of insulin resistance and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is a key feature of the metabolic syndrome and often progresses to type 2 diabetes. Both insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes are characterized by dyslipidemia, which is an important and common risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Diabetic dyslipidemia is a cluster of potentially atherogenic lipid and lipoprotein abnormalities that are metabolically interrelated. Recent evidence suggests that a fundamental defect is an overproduction of large very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles, which initiates a sequence of lipoprotein changes, resulting in higher levels of remnant particles, smaller LDL, and lower levels of high-density liporotein (HDL) cholesterol. These atherogenic lipid abnormalities precede the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes by several years, and it is thus important to elucidate the mechanisms involved in the overproduction of large VLDL particles. Here, we review the pathophysiology of VLDL biosynthesis and metabolism in the metabolic syndrome. We also review recent research investigating the relation between hepatic accumulation of lipids and insulin resistance, and sources of fatty acids for liver fat and VLDL biosynthesis. Finally, we briefly discuss current treatments for lipid management of dyslipidemia and potential future therapeutic targets.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Overproduction of VLDL(1) seems to be the central pathophysiological feature of the dyslipidaemia associated with type 2 diabetes. We explored the relationship between liver fat and suppression of VLDL(1) production by insulin in participants with a broad range of liver fat content. METHODS A multicompartmental model was used to determine the kinetic parameters of apolipoprotein B and TG in VLDL(1) and VLDL(2) after a bolus of [(2)H(3)]leucine and [(2)H(5)]glycerol during a hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp in 20 male participants: eight with type 2 diabetes and 12 control volunteers. The participants were divided into two groups with low or high liver fat. All participants with diabetes were in the high liver-fat group. RESULTS The results showed a rapid drop in VLDL(1)-apolipoprotein B and -triacylglycerol secretion in participants with low liver fat during the insulin infusion. In contrast, participants with high liver fat showed no significant change in VLDL(1) secretion. The VLDL(1) suppression following insulin infusion correlated with the suppression of NEFA, and the ability of insulin to suppress the plasma NEFA was impaired in participants with high liver fat. A novel finding was an inverse response between VLDL(1) and VLDL(2) secretion in participants with low liver fat: VLDL(1) secretion decreased acutely after insulin infusion whereas VLDL(2) secretion increased. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Insulin downregulates VLDL(1) secretion and increases VLDL(2) secretion in participants with low liver fat but fails to suppress VLDL(1) secretion in participants with high liver fat, resulting in overproduction of VLDL(1). Thus, liver fat is associated with lack of VLDL(1) suppression in response to insulin.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Diabetic dyslipidaemia is a cluster of plasma lipid and lipoprotein abnormalities that are metabolically interrelated. The increase of large type 1 very low density lipoprotein particles in type 2 diabetes initiates a sequence of events that generates atherogenic remnants, small dense low-density lipoprotein and small dense high-density lipoprotein particles. Thus, it is of great importance to elucidate the mechanisms behind the overproduction of large very low density lipoprotein particles in diabetic dyslipidaemia. This review discusses the pathophysiology of very low density lipoprotein metabolism in type 2 diabetes and recent concepts of lipid management of diabetic dyslipidaemia. RECENT FINDINGS Results indicate that triglyceride and apolipoprotein B production in types 1 and 2 very low density lipoprotein are significantly correlated, suggesting a coupling of the two processes governing the metabolism of these lipoprotein subpopulations. Insulin resistance, hyperglycaemia, and liver fat were associated with excess hepatic production of type 1 but not type 2 very low density lipoprotein particles. These data provide support for the independent regulation of types 1 and 2 very low density lipoprotein apolipoprotein B production. SUMMARY Recent data suggest that the assembly of very low density lipoprotein is fundamentally altered in type 2 diabetes, explaining the overproduction of large type 1 very low density lipoprotein as well as the inability of insulin to suppress production of type 1 very low density lipoprotein in type 2 diabetes. Future discoveries hopefully will delineate the regulatory steps to allow more targeted treatment of diabetic dyslipidaemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the role of adipocyte differentiation-related protein (ADRP) in triglyceride turnover and in the secretion of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) from McA-RH7777 cells and primary rat hepatocytes. METHODS AND RESULTS An increase in the expression of ADRP increased triglyceride accumulation in cytosolic lipid droplets and prevented the incorporation of fatty acids into secretable triglycerides, thereby reducing the secretion of triglycerides as well as of apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) and apoB-48 VLDL. The ability of ADRP to block the secretion of apoB-100 VLDL1 decreased with increasing quantities of fatty acids in the medium, indicating a saturable process and emphasizing the importance of sequestering of fatty acids for the effect of ADRP on VLDL secretion. Knockdown (small interfering RNA) of ADRP decreased the pool of cytosolic lipid droplets but increased only the secretion of apoB-48 VLDL1. Additionally, there was an increased flow of fatty acids into beta-oxidation. CONCLUSIONS ADRP is essential for the accumulation of triglycerides in cytosolic lipid droplets. An increase in ADRP prevents the formation of VLDL by diverting fatty acids from the VLDL assembly pathway into cytosolic triglycerides, whereas a decrease of the protein increases the sorting of fatty acids to beta-oxidation and promotes the secretion of apoB-48 VLDL1.

Abstract
In McA-RH7777 cells stably expressing human apolipoprotein (apo) B100, treatment with oleic acid (18:1(n-9)) promoted whereas treatment with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5(n-3)) attenuated assembly and secretion of VLDL. Under conditions where the cells were cultured in the presence of 20% serum, EPA (0.4 mM) had marginal effect on the secretion of total apoB100 (determined by pulse-chase analysis) but decreased (by 50%) secretion of triacylglycerol (TG), indicating that the inhibitory effect of EPA was exerted primarily on TG-rich VLDL. Analysis of phospholipid mass and species by tandem mass spectrometry showed increased phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in EPA-treated cells, the increase was significant in the distal Golgi membranes (by 170%) and endoplasmic reticulum (by 116%). Lipid pulse-chase studies showed a major distinction between phospholipid species containing 20:5(n-3) and 18:1(n-9), which in turn was associated with distinct compartmentalization of TG containing 20:5(n-3) or 18:1(n-9) between cytosol and microsomes and their recruitment during VLDL assembly. Thus, 18:1-TG was secreted as VLDL but 20:5-TG was not. These results suggest that EPA attenuation of VLDL secretion is associated with impaired utilization of TG derived from phospholipid remodeling.

Abstract
In hepatocytes, vitamin E is secreted via the efflux pathway and is believed to associate with apolipoprotein B (apoB)-lipoproteins extracellularly. The molecular mechanisms involved in the uptake, intracellular trafficking, and secretion of dietary vitamin E by the intestinal cells are unknown. We observed that low concentrations of Tween-40 were better for the solubilization and delivery of vitamin E to differentiated Caco-2 cells, whereas high concentrations of Tween-40 and sera inhibited this uptake. Vitamin E uptake was initially rapid and then reached saturation. Subcellular localization revealed that vitamin E primarily accumulated in microsomal membranes. Oleic acid (OA) treatment, which induces chylomicron assembly and secretion, decreased microsomal membrane-bound vitamin E in a time-dependent manner. To study secretion, differentiated Caco-2 cells were pulse-labeled with vitamin E and chased in the presence and absence of OA. In the absence of OA, vitamin E was associated with intestinal high density lipoprotein (I-HDL), whereas OA-treated cells secreted vitamin E with I-HDL and chylomicrons. No extracellular transfer of vitamin E between these lipoproteins was observed. Glyburide, an antagonist of ABCA1, partially inhibited its secretion with I-HDL, whereas plasma HDL increased vitamin E efflux. An antagonist of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein, brefeldin A, and monensin specifically inhibited vitamin E secretion with chylomicrons. These studies indicate that vitamin E taken up by Caco-2 cells is stored in the microsomal membranes and secreted with chylomicrons and I-HDL. Transport via I-HDL might contribute to vitamin E absorption in patients with abetalipoproteinemia receiving large oral doses of the vitamin.

Abstract
Apolipoprotein (apo) B exists in two forms apoB100 and apoB48. ApoB100 is present on very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), intermediate density lipoproteins (IDL) and LDL. ApoB100 assembles VLDL particles in the liver. This process starts by the formation of a pre-VLDL, which is retained in the cell unless converted to the triglyceride-poor VLDL2. VLDL2 is secreted or converted to VLDL1 by a bulk lipidation in the Golgi apparatus. ApoB100 has a central role in the development of atherosclerosis. Two proteoglycan-binding sequences in apoB100 have been identified, which are important for retaining the lipoprotein in the intima of the artery. Retention is essential for the development of the atherosclerotic lesion.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Apolipoprotein B-containing lipoprotein assembly and secretion is critical for lipid absorption and triglyceride homeostasis, and plays a role in atherogenesis and the pathobiology of type 2 diabetes and obesity. This review highlights recent insights into the evolutionary, structural, and cell biology of hepatic and intestinal pathways for lipid mobilization, and the mechanisms and regulation of lipoprotein assembly and secretion. RECENT FINDINGS Until recently it was assumed that microsomal triglyceride transfer protein-dependent apolipoprotein B-containing lipoprotein assembly was a unique adaptation associated with vertebrate lipid homeostasis. However, it is now clear that microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) exists in species whose last common ancestor diverged over 550 million years ago. In its long evolutionary history, the MTP gene has given rise to a series of paralogous lipid transport proteins, all of which require MTP for their biogenesis. During its evolution, MTP has acquired new functions, enabling it to participate in a disparate array of lipid mobilization and transport pathways, ranging from primitive lipoprotein assembly to antigenic lipid presentation. In addition to the complex and multifunctional role of MTP in apolipoprotein B assembly, other factors responsible for the generation of secretion-coupled lipids and the modulation of apolipoprotein B production are emerging. SUMMARY The phylogenic dissection of MTP and apolipoprotein B function, coupled with ongoing structural and biochemical analyses, provide significant insights into the mechanisms of lipid mobilization and secretion. Some of these factors and processes may be targeted therapeutically to modulate the quantitative and qualitative aspects of apolipoprotein B production.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the role of ADP ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) in the assembly of very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs). METHODS AND RESULTS The dominant-negative ARF1 mutant, T31N, decreased the assembly of apoB-100 VLDL 1 (Svedberg floatation units [Sf] 60 to 400) by 80%. The decrease coincided with loss of coatamer I (COPI) from the Golgi apparatus and inhibition of anterograde transport, as demonstrated by time-lapse studies of the vesicular stomatitis virus G protein. The VLDL 1 assembly was also completely inhibited at 15 degrees C. Thus, the antegrade transport is essential for the assembly of VLDL 1. Intracellular localization of N-acetylgalactosaminyl transferase 2 indicated that the Golgi apparatus was at least partly intact when the VLDL assembly was inhibited. Transient transfection with phospholipase D 1 increased the assembly of VLDL 1 and VLDL 2 (Sf 20 to 60). Overexpression of ARF1 in stably transfected McA-RH7777 cells increased the secretion of VLDL 2 but not of VLDL 1, which was dependent on the availability of oleic acid. Secretion of VLDL 1 increased with increasing amounts of oleic acid, and VLDL 2 secretion decreased simultaneously. CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of ARF1 increased the assembly of VLDL 2 but not of VLDL 1, whose production was dependent on both anterograde transport and the availability of fatty acids.

Abstract
Increased serum concentrations of low density lipoproteins represent a major cardiovascular risk factor. Low-density lipoproteins are derived from very low density lipoproteins secreted by the liver. Apolipoprotein (apo)B that constitutes the essential structural protein of these lipoproteins exists in two forms, the full length form apoB-100 and the carboxy-terminal truncated apoB-48. The generation of apoB-48 is due to editing of the apoB mRNA which generates a premature stop translation codon. The editing of apoB mRNA is an important regulatory event because apoB-48-containing lipoproteins cannot be converted into the atherogenic low density lipoproteins. The apoB gene is constitutively expressed in liver and intestine, and the rate of apoB secretion is regulated post-transcriptionally. The translocation of apoB into the endoplasmic reticulum is complicated by the hydrophobicity of the nascent polypeptide. The assembly and secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins within the endoplasmic reticulum is strictly dependent on the microsomal tricylceride transfer protein which shuttles triglycerides onto the nascent lipoprotein particle. The overall synthesis of apoB lipoproteins is regulated by proteosomal and nonproteosomal degradation and is dependent on triglyceride availability. Noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus, obesity and the metabolic syndrome are characterized by an increased hepatic synthesis of apoB-containing lipoproteins. Interventions aimed to reduce the hepatic secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins are therefore of great clinical importance. Lead targets in these pathways are discussed.

Abstract
In this study, we tested the hypothesis that two separate pathways, the two-step process and an apolipoprotein B (apoB) size-dependent lipidation process, give rise to different lipoproteins. Expression of apoB-100 and C-terminally truncated forms of apoB-100 in McA-RH7777 cells demonstrated that VLDL particles can be assembled by apoB size-dependent linear lipidation, resulting in particles whose density is inversely related to the size of apoB. This lipidation results in a LDL-VLDL 2 particle containing apoB-100. VLDL 1 is assembled by the two-step process by apoB-48 and larger forms of apoB but not to any significant amount by apoB-41. The major amount of intracellular apoB-80 and apoB-100 banded with a mean density of 1.10 g/ml. Its formation was dependent on the sequence between apoB-72 and apoB-90. This dense particle, which is retained in the cell, possibly by chaperones or association with the microsomal membrane, is a precursor of secreted VLDL 1. The intracellular LDL-VLDL 2 particles formed during size-dependent lipidation appear to be the precursors of intracellular VLDL 1. We propose that the dense apoB-100 intracellular particle is converted to LDL-VLDL 2 by size-dependent lipidation. LDL-VLDL 2 is secreted or converted to VLDL 1 by the uptake of the major amount of triglycerides.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of glucosamine-mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and Grp78 (BiP) in the intracellular degradation of apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) in cultured hepatocytes. METHODS AND RESULTS Glucosamine treatment (2.5 to 10 mmol/L) of HepG2 cells increased levels of the ER chaperones, 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein (Grp78) and Grp94, in a dose-dependent manner and led to significant decreases in both cellular and secreted apoB100 by up to 97% (P<0.01). In contrast, no changes were observed in ER resident (ER60, PTP-1B) or secretory (albumin, apoE) control proteins. Glucosamine-induced apoB degradation was similarly observed in primary hamster hepatocytes and McA-RH7777 cells. Glucosamine treatment led to reduced tranlocational efficiency of apoB100 in the ER and enhanced its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Adenoviral overexpression of Grp78 also led to significantly decreased levels of newly synthesized apoB100 in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.01). Grp78-induced downregulation of apoB100 was sensitive to inhibition by the proteasome inhibitor, lactacystin, but not lysosomal protease inhibitors, E64 and leupeptin, suggesting that overexpression of Grp78 selectively induced proteasomal degradation of apoB100. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that binding and retention by Grp78 may play a critical role in proteasomal targeting and the ER quality-control of misfolded apoB. Interaction with core lipoprotein lipids may facilitate apoB transport out of the ER by reducing Grp78-mediated ER retention.

Abstract
How omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) lower plasma lipid levels is incompletely understood. We previously showed that marine omega-3 PUFAs (docosahexaenoic acid [DHA] and eicosapentaenoic acid) stimulate a novel pathway, post-ER presecretory proteolysis (PERPP), that degrades apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100), thereby reducing lipoprotein secretion from liver cells. To identify signals stimulating PERPP, we examined known actions of omega-3 PUFA. In rat hepatoma or primary rodent hepatocytes incubated with omega-3 PUFA, cotreatment with the iron chelator desferrioxamine, an inhibitor of iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, or vitamin E, a lipid antioxidant, suppressed increases in thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARSs; a measure of lipid peroxidation products) and restored ApoB100 recovery and VLDL secretion. Moreover, omega-6 and nonmarine omega-3 PUFA, also prone to peroxidation, increased ApoB100 degradation via intracellular induction of TBARSs. Even without added fatty acids, degradation of ApoB100 in primary hepatocytes was blocked by desferrioxamine or antioxidant cotreatment. To extend these results in vivo, mice were infused with DHA, which increased hepatic TBARSs and reduced VLDL-ApoB100 secretion. These results establish a novel link between lipid peroxidation and oxidant stress with ApoB100 degradation via PERPP, and may be relevant to the hypolipidemic actions of dietary PUFAs, the basal regulation of ApoB100 secretion, and hyperlipidemias arising from ApoB100 overproduction.

Abstract
The in vivo effects of increased delivery of fatty acids (FA) to the liver are poorly defined. Therefore, we compared the effects of infusing either 6 mM oleic acid (OA) bound to albumin, 0.5-20% Intralipid, or saline for 3 or 6 h into male C57BL/6J mice. Infusions were followed by studies of triglyceride (TG) and apoB secretion. Although plasma FA levels increased similarly after either 20% Intralipid or 6 mM OA, TG secretion increased only after infusion of 4-20% Intralipid; TG secretion was unchanged by 6 mM OA. By contrast, 6-h infusions of either 6 mM OA or 4-20% Intralipid increased apoB secretion. 6 mM OA and 20% Intralipid each increased secretion of apoB from primary hepatocytes ex vivo. Importantly, 0.5-2% Intralipid, which delivered more FA to the liver than 6 mM OA, did not stimulate apoB secretion. Hepatic apoB mRNA levels were unaffected by either 6 mM OA or 20% Intralipid, but microsomal triglyceride transfer protein mRNA was significantly lower after 6-h infusions with 6 mM OA versus either saline or 20% Intralipid. Lower microsomal triglyceride transfer protein mRNA levels were associated with reduced hepatic TG mass after 6-h infusions of 6 mM OA. We conclude that 1) increased FA delivery to the liver in vivo increases secretion of apoB-lipoproteins via post-transcriptional mechanisms, 2) OA-induced apoB-lipoprotein secretion occurred at least in part via mechanisms other than by providing substrate for TG synthesis, and 3) the route of delivery of FA is important for its effects on apoB secretion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Apolipoprotein E (apoE)-deficient mice develop hepatic steatosis and secrete reduced levels of VLDL-TG. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the effects of apoE-deficiency on intracellular lipid homeostasis and secretion of triglycerides (TG). We show that intracellular TG turnover and activities of diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) are similar in Apoe(-/-) and wild type mice. In addition, apoB synthesis was not decreased in Apoe(-/-) cells. Thus, the accumulation of lipid in these cells is not attributable to perturbed TG turnover, apoB synthesis, and the activities of DGAT and MTP. Inhibition of MTP had a more profound impact on the secretion of VLDL-TG from wild type hepatocytes than Apoe(-/-) hepatocytes, indicating that MTP was more limiting for the production of VLDL-TG from wild type cells. In marked contrast to the MTP-deficient model of fatty liver, electron microscopy of lipid-stained liver sections of Apoe(-/-) mice revealed an accumulation of lipid in numerous small, putative ER-derived vesicles and in the cytosol. No abnormalities were observed in the Golgi of Apoe(-/-) mice. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that the removal of lipids from the early or intermediary compartments of the secretory pathway of hepatocytes is impaired in Apoe(-/-) mice.

Abstract
ApoB (apolipoprotein B)-containing lipoprotein particles, such as chylomicrons, very-low-density and low-density lipoprotein particles, transport triacylglycerol and cholesteryl esters in the bloodstream. A palmitoylation site was previously mapped to Cys-1085 in a functional truncated apoB variant (apoB-29) and abolished by mutagenesis. This Cys-1085Ser mutation resulted in secretion of smaller and denser lipoprotein particles containing 80% less cholesteryl ester and triacylglycerol than wild-type controls. We show that palmitoylation of apoB-29 occurs in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum), stimulates the ER-Golgi transport rate of apoB-29 almost 2-fold, doubles the secretion efficiency of wild-type apoB-29 in comparison with (Cys-1085Ser)apoB-29 and reduces significantly the association of wild-type apoB-29 with calnexin in comparison with (Cys-1085Ser)apoB-29. While non-palmitoylated apoB-29 co-localized extensively with constitutively secreted transferrin, wild-type apoB-29 did so only partially and was enriched in ER extensions. Our results suggest that palmitoylation of apoB regulates the biogenesis of nascent apoB-containing lipoprotein particles by concentrating apoB in a specialized ER compartment and by stimulating dissociation from constituents of the ER quality-control machinery. This reduced interaction would lead to a faster ER-Golgi transit time and a higher secretion efficiency of wild-type apoB-29. Palmitoylation could regulate the amount of apoB available for secretion of neutral lipids.

Abstract
The site where bulk lipid is added to apoB100 low density lipoproteins (LDL)/high density lipoproteins (HDL) particles to form triglyceride-enriched very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) has not been identified definitively. We employed several strategies to address this question. First, McA RH7777 cells were pulse-labeled for 20 min with [35S]methionine/cysteine and chased for 1 h (Chase I) to allow study of newly synthesized apoB100 LDL/HDL remaining in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). After Chase I, cells were incubated for another hour (C2) with/without brefeldin A (BFA) and nocodazole (Noc) (to block ER to Golgi trafficking) and with/without oleic acid (OA). OA treatment alone during C2 increased VLDL secretion. This was prevented by the addition of BFA/Noc in C2. When C2 media were replaced by control media for another 1-h chase (C3), VLDL formed during OA treatment in C2 were secreted into C3 medium. Thus, OA-induced conversion of apoB100 LDL/HDL to VLDL during C2 occurred in the ER. Next, newly synthesized apoB100 lipoproteins were trapped in the Golgi by treatment with Noc and monensin during Chase I (C1), and C2 was carried out in the presence of BFA/Noc with/without OA and without monensin. Under these conditions, OA treatment during C2 did not stimulate VLDL secretion. The same pulse/chase protocols were followed by iodixanol subcellular fractionation, extraction of lipoproteins from ER and Golgi, and sucrose gradient separation of extracted lipoproteins. Cells treated with BFA/Noc and OA in C2 had VLDL in the ER. In the absence of OA, only LDL/HDL were present in the ER. The density of Golgi lipoproteins in these cells was not affected by OA. Similar results were obtained when ER were immuno-isolated with anti-calnexin antibodies. In conclusion, apoB100 bulk lipidation, resulting in conversion of LDL/HDL to VLDL, can occur in the ER, but not in the Golgi, in McA RH7777 cells.

Abstract
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is essential for the assembly of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Within the endoplasmic reticulum, it transfers lipid from the membrane to the forming lipoprotein. Recent evidence suggests that it may also function within the Golgi apparatus. To address this hypothesis, we developed a polyclonal antibody to MTP and used it in a series of studies on mouse liver and McArdle-RH7777 (McA) cells. Western blot analysis demonstrated the presence of MTP within mouse hepatic-Golgi apparatus-rich fractions. In addition, in vitro lipid transfer assays demonstrated the presence of triglyceride transfer activity within the Golgi fractions. Immunohistochemical studies with mouse liver demonstrated the presence of MTP within all hepatocytes, but not in nonparenchymal cells. The subcellular location of MTP in McA cells was investigated using confocal microscopy. MTP colocalized with the trans-Golgi network (TGN) 38 and Golgi SNARE (soluble N-ethylmalemide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) of 28 kDa (GS28), markers for the trans- and cis-Golgi apparatus, respectively. Morphometric analyses indicated that approximately 17% of the MTP signal colocalized with the TGN38, while 33% of the trans-Golgi marker colocalized with the MTP. Approximately 17% of the MTP signal colocalized with the GS28, whereas 53% of the cis-Golgi marker colocalized with the MTP. The results provide unequivocal evidence for the location of MTP within the Golgi apparatus, and further highlight the importance of this organelle in the assembly of lipoproteins.

Abstract
We developed a microsome-based, cell-free system that assembles newly formed triglyceride (TG) into spherical lipid droplets. These droplets were recovered in the d </= 1.055 g/ml fraction by gradient ultracentrifugation and were similar in size and appearance to those isolated from rat adipocytes and 3T3-L1 cells. Caveolin 1 and 2, vimentin, adipocyte differentiation-related protein, and the 78-kDa glucose regulatory protein were identified on the droplets from the cell-free system. The caveolin was soluble in 1% Triton X-100, as was the caveolin on lipid droplets from 3T3-L1 cells. The lipid droplets from the cell-free system, like those from 3T3-L1 cells, contained TG, diacylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine. The assembly of these TG-containing structures was dependent on the rate of TG biosynthesis and required an activator present in the 160,000 x g supernatant from homogenized rat adipocytes. The activator induced phospholipase D (PLD) activity, and its effect on the release of the TG-containing structures from the microsomes was inhibited by 1-butanol (but not 2-butanol) or 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. The activator could be replaced by a constitutively active PLD or phosphatidic acid. These results indicate that PLD and the formation of phosphatidic acid are important in the assembly of the TG-containing structures.

Abstract
We examined the role of S-linked palmitoylation of human apolipoprotein (apo) B in the assembly and secretion of very low density lipoproteins using recombinant human apoB48. There are four free cysteine residues (Cys(1085), Cys(1396), Cys(1478), and Cys(1635)) within apoB48 that potentially can be palmitoylated. All four cysteine residues were substituted with serine by site-specific mutagenesis. The mutant protein was expressed in transfected rat hepatoma McA-RH7777 cells. Metabolic labeling of the stably transfected cells with iodopalmitic acid analog showed that the mutant apoB48 lacked palmitoylation. The lack of palmitoylation had little impact on the ability of apoB48 to assemble and secrete very low density lipoproteins or high density lipoproteins. Immunocytochemistry experiments using confocal microscopy failed to reveal any major alterations in the intracellular distribution of the mutant apoB48 at steady state. Pulse-chase analysis combined with subcellular fractionation showed no apparent deficiency in the movement of the mutant apoB48 protein from the endoplasmic reticulum to cis/medial Golgi. However, the mutant apoB48 lacking palmitoylation showed retarded movement toward the distal Golgi and increased association (>2-fold) with the membranes of the secretory compartments. A marginal decrease (by 15-20%) in secretion efficiency as compared with that of wild type apoB48 was also observed. These results suggest that lack of palmitoylation may influence the partitioning of apoB48 between microsomal membranes and microsomal lumen, but it does not compromise the ability of apoB48 to assemble lipoproteins.

Abstract
Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL), an autosomal co-dominant disorder, is associated with reduced plasma concentrations (<5th percentile for age and sex) of apolipoprotein (apo) B and beta-migrating lipoproteins. To date, only mutations in APOB encoding prematurely truncated apoB have been found in FHBL. We discovered a novel APOB gene mutation, namely R463W, in an extended Christian Lebanese FHBL kindred. Heterozygotes for R463W had the typical FHBL phenotype, whereas homozygotes had barely detectable apoB-100. The effect of the R463W mutation on apoB secretion was examined using transfected McA-RH7777 cells that expressed one of two recombinant human apoBs, namely B48 and B17. In both cases, the mutant proteins (B48RW and B17RW) were retained within the endoplasmic reticulum and were secreted poorly compared with their wild-type counterparts. Pulse-chase analysis showed that secretion efficiencies of B48RW and B17RW were, respectively, 45 and 40% lower than those of the wild-types. Substitution of Arg(463) with Ala in apoB-17 (B17RA) decreased secretion efficiency by approximately 50%, but substitution with Lys (B17RK) had no effect on secretion, indicating that the positive charge was important. Molecular modeling of apoB predicted that Arg(463) was in close proximity to Glu(756) and Asp(456). Substitution of Glu(756) with Gln (B17EQ) had no effect on secretion, but substitution of Asp(456) with Asn (B17DN) decreased secretion to the same extent as B17RW. In co-transfection experiments, the mutant B17RW showed increased binding to microsomal triglyceride transfer protein as compared with wild-type B17. Thus, the naturally occurring R463W mutant reveals a key local domain governing assembly and secretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident molecular chaperones interact with apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB) during its maturation. The initial stages of apoB folding occur while it is bound to the ER membrane, where it becomes partially lipidated to form a primordial intermediate. We determined whether this intermediate is dependent on the assistance of molecular chaperones for its subsequent folding steps. To that end, microsomes were prepared from HepG2 cells and luminal contents were subjected to KBr density gradient centrifugation. Immunoprecipitation of apoB followed by Western blotting showed that the luminal pool floated at a density of 1.12 g/ml and, like the membrane-bound pool, was associated with GRP94, ERp72, BiP, calreticulin, and cyclophilin B. Except for calreticulin, chaperone/apoB ratio in the lumen was severalfold higher than that in the membrane, suggesting a role for these chaperones both in facilitating the release of the primordial intermediate into the ER lumen and in providing stability. Subcellular fractionation on sucrose gradients showed that apoB in the Golgi was associated with the same array of chaperones as the pool of apoB recovered from heavy microsomes containing the ER, except that chaperone/apoB ratio was lower. KBr density gradient fractionation showed that the major pool of luminal apoB in the Golgi was recovered from 1.02 < d < 1.08 g/ml, whereas apoB in ER was recovered primarily from 1.08 < d < 1.2 g/ml. Both fractions were associated with the same spectrum of chaperones. Together with the finding that GRP94 was found associated with sialylated apoB, we conclude that correct folding of apoB is dependent on the assistance of molecular chaperone, which play multiple roles in its maturation throughout the secretory pathway including distal compartments such as the trans-Golgi network.

Abstract
We determined the role of N-linked glycosylation of apolipoprotein B (apoB) in the assembly and secretion of lipoproteins using transfected rat hepatoma McA-RH7777 cells expressing human apoB-17, apoB-37, and apoB-50, three apoB variants with different ability to recruit neutral lipids. Substituting Asn residue with Gln at the single glycosylation site within apoB-17 (N(158)) decreased its secretion efficiency to a level equivalent to that of wild-type apoB-17 treated with tunicamycin, but had little effect on its synthesis or intracellular distribution. When selective N-to-Q substitution was introduced at one or more of the five N-linked glycosylation sites within apoB-37 (N(158), N(956), N(1341), N(1350), and N(1496)), secretion efficiency of apoB-37 from transiently transfected cells was variably affected. When all five N-linked glycosylation sites were mutated within apoB-37, the secretion efficiency and association with lipoproteins were decreased by >50% as compared with wild-type apoB-37. Similarly, mutant apoB-50 with all of its N-linked glycosylation sites mutagenized showed decreased secretion efficiency and decreased lipoprotein association in both d < 1.02 and d > 1.02 g/ml fractions. The inability of mutant apoB-37 and apoB-50 to associate with very low-density lipoproteins was attributable to impaired assembly and was not due to the limitation of lipid availability. The decreased secretion of mutant apoB-17 and apoB-37 was not accompanied by accumulation within the cells, suggesting that the proportion of mutant apoB not secreted was rapidly degraded. However unlike apoB-17 or apoB-37, accumulation of mutant apoB-50 was observed within the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi compartments. These data imply that the N-glycans at the amino terminus of apoB play an important role in the assembly and secretion of lipoproteins containing the carboxyl terminally truncated apoB.

Abstract
Previous studies from our laboratory have suggested that the assembly of lipoproteins by the liver is not completed in the rough endoplasmic reticulum but continues while the particles are en route to or within the Golgi apparatus. To investigate further the role of the Golgi apparatus in lipoprotein assembly, mice were injected with [3H]glycerol and killed 7.5 to 45 min after injection. Microsomes and Golgi apparatus-rich fractions were isolated from the livers and separated into membrane and content fractions. TG within microsomal and Golgi membranes were labeled, rapidly reaching peak specific activity within 7.5 min of isotope injection. The specific activity of TG in microsomal membranes decreased to approximately 40% of peak values by 45 min, whereas the specific activity of TG in the Golgi membranes decreased to approximately 30% of peak values by 45 min. To determine whether the turnover of the Golgi membrane TG pool was dependent on microsomal TG transfer protein (MTP), mice were gavaged with an MTP inhibitor, and the labeling experiments were repeated. Inhibition of MTP attenuated the turnover of newly synthesized Golgi membrane TG by approximately 50% and the turnover of microsomal membrane TG by approximately 40%. Based on the rapid turnover of the Golgi membrane TG pool and the attenuation of the turnover of this pool by MTP inhibitor, we propose that lipid is transferred from the Golgi membrane to luminal lipoproteins in an MTP-dependent manner. The results support our hypothesis that assembly of VLDL continues within the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
Previous studies with McA-RH7777 cells showed a 15-20-min temporal delay in the oleate treatment-induced assembly of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) after apolipoprotein (apo) B100 translation, suggesting a post-translational process. Here, we determined whether the post-translational assembly of apoB100-VLDL occurred within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or in post-ER compartments using biochemical and microscopic techniques. At steady state, apoB100 distributed throughout ER and Golgi, which were fractionated by Nycodenz gradient centrifugation. Pulse-chase experiments showed that it took about 20 min for newly synthesized apoB100 to exit the ER and to accumulate in the cis/medial Golgi. At the end of a subsequent 20-min chase, a small fraction of apoB100 accumulated in the distal Golgi, and a large amount of apoB100 was secreted into the medium as VLDL. VLDL was not detected either in the lumen of ER or in that of cis/medial Golgi where apoB100 was membrane-associated and sensitive to endoglycosidase H treatment. In contrast, VLDL particles were found in the lumen of the distal Golgi where apoB100 was resistant to endoglycosidase H. Formation of lumenal VLDL almost coincided with the appearance of VLDL in the medium, suggesting that the site of VLDL assembly is proximal to the site of secretion. When microsomal triglyceride transfer protein activity was inactivated after apoB had exited the ER, VLDL formation in the distal Golgi and its subsequent secretion was unaffected. Lipid analysis by tandem mass spectrometry showed that oleate treatment increased the masses of membrane phosphatidylcholine (by 68%) and phosphatidylethanolamine (by 27%) and altered the membrane phospholipid profiles of ER and Golgi. Taken together, these results suggest that VLDL assembly in McA-RH7777 cells takes place in compartments at the distal end of the secretory pathway.

Abstract
The biogenesis of apolipoprotein B is quite complex in view of its huge size, hydrophobicity, obligate association with lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides prior to secretion, and intracellular degradation of a substantial proportion of newly synthesized molecules. Multiple proteins likely serve roles as molecular chaperones to assist in folding, assembly with lipids, and regulation of the secretion of apolipoprotein B. In these studies, we developed a strategy to isolate proteins associated with apolipoprotein B in rat livers. The purification consisted of two stages: first, microsomes were prepared from rat liver and treated with chemical cross-linkers, and second, the solubilized proteins were co-immunoprecipitated with antibody against apolipoprotein B. We found that several proteins were cross-linked to apolipoprotein B. The proteins were digested with trypsin, and the released peptides were sequenced by tandem mass spectrometry. The sequences precisely matched 377 peptides in 99 unique proteins. We show that at least two of the identified proteins, ferritin heavy and light chains, can directly bind apolipoprotein B. These and possibly other proteins identified by this proteomic approach are novel candidates for proteins that affect apolipoprotein B during its biogenesis.

Abstract
Although microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) and newly synthesized triglyceride (TG) are critical for co-translational targeting of apolipoprotein B (apoB100) to lipoprotein assembly in hepatoma cell lines, their roles in the later stages of lipoprotein assembly remain unclear. Using N-acetyl-Leu-Leu-norleucinal to prevent proteasomal degradation, HepG2 cells were radiolabeled and chased for 0-90 min (chase I). The medium was changed and cells chased for another 150 min (chase II) in the absence (control) or presence of Pfizer MTP inhibitor CP-10447 (CP). As chase I was extended, inhibition of apoB100 secretion by CP during chase II decreased from 75.9% to only 15% of control (no CP during chase II). Additional studies were conducted in which chase I was either 0 or 90 min, and chase II was in the presence of [(3)H]glycerol and either BSA (control), CP (inhibits both MTP activity and TG synthesis),BMS-1976360-1) (BMS) (inhibits only MTP activity), or triacsin C (TC) (inhibits only TG synthesis). When chase I was 0 min, CP, BMS, and TC reduced apoB100 secretion during chase II by 75.3, 73.9, and 53.9%. However, when chase I was 90 min, those agents reduced apoB100 secretion during chase II by only 16.0, 19.2, and 13.9%. Of note, all three inhibited secretion of newly synthesized TG during chase II by 80, 80, and 40%, whether chase I was 0 or 90 min. In both HepG2 cells and McA-RH7777 cells, if chase I was at least 60 min, inhibition of TG synthesis and/or MTP activity did not affect the density of secreted apoB100-lipoproteins under basal conditions. Oleic acid increased secretion of TG-enriched apoB100-lipoproteins similarly in the absence or presence of either of CP, BMS, or TC. We conclude that neither MTP nor newly synthesized TG is necessary for the later stages of apoB100-lipoprotein assembly and secretion in either HepG2 or McA-RH7777 cells.
