Abstract [en]

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) hydrolyzes lipids in plasma lipoproteins so that the fatty acids can be taken up and used by cells. The activity of LPL changes rapidly in response to changes in nutrition, physical activity and other conditions. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is an important controller of LPL activity. Both LPL and ANGPTL4 are produced and secreted by adipocytes. When the transcription blocker Actinomycin D was added to cultures of 3T3-L1 adipocytes, LPL activity in the medium increased several-fold. LPL mRNA decreased moderately during 5 h, while ANGPTL4 mRNA and protein declined rapidly, explaining that LPL activity was increased. TNF-alpha is known to reduce LPL activity in adipose tissue. We have shown that TNF-a increased ANGPTL4 both at the mRNA and protein level. Expression of ANGPTL4 is known to be under control of Foxol. Use of the Foxol-specific inhibitor AS1842856, or knockdown of ANGPTL4 by RNAi, resulted in increased LPL activity in the medium. Both with ActD and with the Foxol inhibitor the cells became unresponsive to TNF-a. This study shows that TNF-a, by a Foxol dependent pathway, increases the transcription of ANGPTL4 which is secreted by the cells and causes inactivation of LPL.
