nicotinic acid decreases Apolipoprotein B100 containing lipoprotein levels by reducing hepatic very low density lipoprotein secretion through a possible diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 inhibition in obese dogs
Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2010Co-Authors: Jerome Le Bloch, Maud Chetiveaux, T Magot, Michel Krempf, Veronique Leray, Benjamin Freuchet, Patrick Nguyen, Khadija OuguerramAbstract:Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) is an essential component of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), both independent markers of cardiovascular risk. Nicotinic acid (NA) is an efficacious drug for decreasing VLDL and LDL, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. For this purpose, six obese insulin-resistant dogs were given 350 mg/day of NA for 1 week and then 500 mg/day for 3 weeks. Turnover of apoB100-containing lipoproteins was investigated using stable isotope-labeled tracers. Multicompartmental modeling was used to derive kinetic parameters before and at the end of NA treatment. Hepatic diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2), microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), hepatic lipase (HL), and adipose lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mRNA expression was also determined. NA treatment decreased plasma triglyceride (TG) (p < 0.001), VLDL-TG (p < 0.05), total cholesterol (p < 0.0001), and LDL cholesterol (p < 0.05), whereas plasma nonesterified fatty acids were unchanged. The decrease in VLDL-apoB100 concentration (p < 0.001) was the result of a lower absolute production rate (APR) (p < 0.001), despite a moderate decrease (p < 0.05) in fractional catabolic rate (FCR). LDL-apoB100 concentration was reduced (p < 0.05), an effect related to a decrease in LDL APR (p < 0.05) and no change in FCR. NA treatment reduced DGAT2 expression (p < 0.05), whereas MTP, HL, and LPL expression was unchanged. Our results suggest that NA treatment reduced VLDL and LDL concentration as a consequence of a decrease in VLDL production.

fasting induces hyperlipidemia in mice overexpressing proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 lack of modulation of very low density lipoprotein hepatic output by the low density lipoprotein receptor
Endocrinology, 2006Co-Authors: Gilles Lambert, Maud Chetiveaux, Michel Krempf, Annelaure Jarnoux, Thierry Pineau, Olivier Pape, Christian L Laboisse, Philippe CostetAbstract:Several proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) mutations lead to familial hypercholesterolemia by virtue of its role as a negative modulator of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLr). Here, we uncover that upon dietary challenge, the down-regulation of the LDLr is also a key mechanism by which PCSK9 modulates the hepatic production of Apolipoprotein-B-containing lipoproteins. Thus, adenoviral-mediated overexpression of PCSK9 in 24-h fasted mice results in massive hyperlipidemia, due to a striking increase in very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglycerides and Apolipoprotein B100 hepatic output. Similar studies in LDLr (−/−) mice demonstrate that PCSK9-mediated alteration of VLDL output in the fasted state requires the LDLr. This increased production of VLDL was associated with a concomitant reduction of intrahepatic lipid stores as well as a lack of down-regulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α activity and target genes expression. Finally, we show that PCSK9 hepati...

Apolipoprotein B100 metabolism in autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia related to mutations in pcsk9
Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2004Co-Authors: Khadija Ouguerram, Maud Chetiveaux, Yassine Zair, Philippe Costet, Marianne Abifadel, Mathilde Varret, Catherine Boileau, T Magot, Michel KrempfAbstract:Objective— We have reported further heterogeneity in familial autosomal-dominant hypercholesterolemia (FH) related to mutation in proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene previously named neural apoptosis regulated convertase 1 (Narc-1). Our aim was to define the metabolic bases of this new form of hypercholesterolemia. Methods and Results— In vivo kinetics of Apolipoprotein B100-containing lipoproteins using a 14-hour primed constant infusion of [2H3] leucine was conducted in 2 subjects carrying the mutation S127R in PCSK9, controls subjects, and FH subjects with known mutations on the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene (LDL-R). Apo B100 production, catabolism, and transfer rates were estimated from very LDL (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and LDL tracer enrichments by compartmental analysis. PCSK9 mutation dramatically increased the production rate of Apolipoprotein B100 (3-fold) compared with controls or LDL-R mutated subjects, related to direct overproduction...

effect of atorvastatin on Apolipoprotein B100 containing lipoprotein metabolism in type 2 diabetes
Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2003Co-Authors: Khadija Ouguerram, Yassine Zair, T Magot, Julio Sergio Marchini, Bernard Charbonnel, Herve Laouenan, Michel KrempfAbstract:Seven hypertriglyceridemic patients with type-2 diabetes were treated with atorvastatin (40 mg/day) for 2 months. Kinetics of Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100)-containing lipoproteins were determined before and after atorvastatin treatment and compared with data obtained in five normolipidemic volunteers. ApoB100 metabolism was studied using stable isotopes and multicompartmental modeling. Compared with normolipidemic obese subjects, type-2 diabetic patients had a higher apoB100 concentration in very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL), and low-density lipoproteins (LDL) (P < 0.005). Kinetic analysis showed an increase in the total apoB100 production rate (P < 0.005) related to VLDL apoB100 overproduction (P < 0.005). Patients were also characterized by a lower fractional catabolic rate (FCR) in VLDL (not significant) or IDL (P < 0.005) mainly related to a decrease in VLDL and IDL delipidation rate (P < 0.005). Catabolism of LDL was also lower in diabetic patients (P < 0.05). Atorvastatin treatment significantly decreased plasma triglycerides (P < 0.05), total and LDL cholesterol (P < 0.05), apoB100 in LDL, IDL, and VLDL (P < 0.05). Treatment significantly decreased total apoB100 production rate (P < 0.05), but only for VLDL (P < 0.05). Treatment normalized FCR in IDL and LDL (P < 0.05). We concluded that atorvastatin improved lipid abnormalities in type-2 diabetic patients not only by increasing the clearance of apoB100-containing lipoproteins but also by decreasing VLDL production.

role of cysteine protease cghc motifs of er 60 a protein disulfide isomerase in hepatic Apolipoprotein B100 degradation
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2013Co-Authors: Angela C Rutledge, Rianna Zhang, Wei Qiu, Reiko Urade, Khosrow AdeliAbstract:Abstract Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB), the structural component of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), is susceptible to misfolding and subsequent degradation by several intracellular pathways. ER-60, which has been implicated in apoB degradation, is a protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) that forms or rearranges disulfide bonds in substrate proteins and also possesses cysteine protease activity. To determine which ER-60 function is important for apoB degradation, adenoviruses encoding wild-type human ER-60 or a mutant form of human ER-60 (C60A, C409A) that lacked cysteine protease activity were overexpressed in HepG2 cells. Overexpression of wild-type ER-60 in HepG2 cells promoted apoB degradation and impaired apoB secretion, but mutant ER-60 overexpression did not. In McArdle RH-7777 cells, VLDL secretion was markedly inhibited following overexpression of wild-type but not mutant ER-60, an effect that could be blocked by oleate treatment. Mutant ER-60 was not trapped on apoB as it was with the control substrate tapasin, suggesting that ER-60’s role in apoB degradation is likely unrelated to its protein disulfide isomerase activity. Thus, ER-60 may participate in apoB degradation by acting as a cysteine protease. We postulate that apoB cleavage by ER-60 within the ER lumen could facilitate proteasomal degradation of the C-terminus of translocationally-arrested apoB.

glucosamine induced endoplasmic reticulum stress attenuates Apolipoprotein B100 synthesis via perk signaling
Journal of Lipid Research, 2009Co-Authors: Wei Qiu, Angela C Rutledge, Jing Zhang, Khosrow AdeliAbstract:Glucosamine impairs hepatic Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) production by inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and enhancing cotranslational and posttranslational apoB100 degradation (Qiu, W., R. K. Avramoglu, A. C. Rutledge, J. Tsai, and K. Adeli. Mechanisms of glucosamine-induced suppression of the hepatic assembly and secretion of Apolipoprotein B-100-containing lipoproteins. J. Lipid Res. 2006. 47: 1749–1761). Here, we report that glucosamine also regulates apoB100 protein synthesis via ER-stress-induced PERK activation. Short-term (4 h) glucosamine treatment of HepG2 cells reduced both cellular (by 62%) and secreted apoB100 (by 43%) without altering apoB100 mRNA. Treatment with proteasomal inhibitors only partially prevented the suppressive effects of glucosamine, suggesting that mechanisms other than proteasomal degradation may also be involved. Glucosamine-induced ER stress was associated with a significantly reduced apoB100 synthesis with no significant change in posttranslational decay rates, suggesting that glucosamine exerted its effect early during apoB biosynthesis. The role of PERK and its substrate, α-subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2α), in the suppressive effects of glucosamine on apoB synthesis was then investigated. Coexpression of apoB15 (normally resistant to intracellular degradation) with wild-type double stranded (ds) RNA activated protein kinase (PKR)-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) in COS-7 cells resulted in a dramatic reduction in the levels of newly synthesized apoB15. Interestingly, cotransfection with apoB15 and a kinase inactive PERK mutant (K618A) increased apoB15 expression. In addition, short-term glucosamine treatment stimulated an increase in phosphorylation of PERK and eIF2α. Taken together, these data suggest that in addition to the induction of ER-associated degradation and other degradative pathways, ER stress is associated with suppression of apoB synthesis via a PERK-dependent mechanism.

Apolipoprotein B100 acts as a molecular link between lipid induced endoplasmic reticulum stress and hepatic insulin resistance
Hepatology, 2009Co-Authors: Julie Tsai, Wei Qiu, Erika Bereczki, Miklos Santha, Khosrow AdeliAbstract:Accumulation of unfolded and misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) results in ER stress and lipid overload-induced ER stress has been implicated in the development of insulin resistance. Here, evidence is provided for a molecular link between hepatic Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100), induction of ER stress, and attenuated insulin signaling. First, in vivo upregulation of hepatic apoB100 by a lipogenic diet was found to be closely associated with ER stress and attenuated insulin signaling in the liver. Direct in vivo overexpression of human apoB100 in a mouse transgenic model further supported the link between excessive apoB100 expression and hepatic ER stress. Human apoB100 transgenic mice exhibited hypertriglyceridemia and hyperglycemia. In vitro, accumulation of cellular apoB100 by free fatty acid (oleate) stimulation or constant expression of wild-type or N-glycosylation mutant apoB50 in hepatic cells induced ER stress. This led to perturbed activation of glycogen synthase kinase 3 and glycogen synthase by way of the activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase and suppression of insulin signaling cascade, suggesting that dysregulation of apoB was sufficient to disturb ER homeostasis and induce hepatic insulin resistance. Small interfering (si)RNA-mediated attenuation of elevated apoB level in the apoB50-expressing cells rescued cells from lipid-induced ER stress and reversed insulin insensitivity. Conclusion: These findings implicate apoB100 as a molecular link between lipid-induced ER stress and hepatic insulin resistance. (HEPATOLOGY 2009.)

fasting induces hyperlipidemia in mice overexpressing proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 lack of modulation of very low density lipoprotein hepatic output by the low density lipoprotein receptor

Apolipoprotein B100 metabolism in autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia related to mutations in pcsk9

autophagy is required for sortilin mediated degradation of Apolipoprotein B100
Circulation Research, 2018Co-Authors: Jaume Amengual, Liang Guo, Jeffrey L Brodsky, Alanna Strong, Julio Madrigalmatute, Haizhen Wang, Susmita Kaushik, Daniel J Rader, Ana Maria Cuervo, Edward A FisherAbstract:Rationale: Genome-wide association studies identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms near the SORT1 locus strongly associated with decreased plasma LDL-C (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) levels and protection from atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and myocardial infarction. The minor allele of the causal SORT1 single-nucleotide polymorphism locus creates a putative C/EBPα (CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α)-binding site in the SORT1 promoter, thereby increasing in homozygotes sortilin expression by 12-fold in liver, which is rich in this transcription factor. Our previous studies in mice have showed reductions in plasma LDL-C and its principal protein component, apoB (Apolipoprotein B) with increased SORT1 expression, and in vitro studies suggested that sortilin promoted the presecretory lysosomal degradation of apoB associated with the LDL precursor, VLDL (very-low-density lipoprotein). Objective: To determine directly that SORT1 overexpression results in apoB degradation and to identify the mechanisms by which this reduces apoB and VLDL secretion by the liver, thereby contributing to understanding the clinical phenotype of lower LDL-C levels. Methods and Results: Pulse-chase studies directly established that SORT1 overexpression results in apoB degradation. As noted above, previous work implicated a role for lysosomes in this degradation. Through in vitro and in vivo studies, we now demonstrate that the sortilin-mediated route of apoB to lysosomes is unconventional and intersects with autophagy. Increased expression of sortilin diverts more apoB away from secretion, with both proteins trafficking to the endosomal compartment in vesicles that fuse with autophagosomes to form amphisomes. The amphisomes then merge with lysosomes. Furthermore, we show that sortilin itself is a regulator of autophagy and that its activity is scaled to the level of apoB synthesis. Conclusions: These results strongly suggest that an unconventional lysosomal targeting process dependent on autophagy degrades apoB that was diverted from the secretory pathway by sortilin and provides a mechanism contributing to the reduced LDL-C found in individuals with SORT1 overexpression.

a regulator of secretory vesicle size kelch like protein 12 facilitates the secretion of Apolipoprotein B100 and very low density lipoproteins brief report
Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2014Co-Authors: Chutikarn Butkinaree, Liang Guo, Jeffrey L Brodsky, Bhama Ramkhelawon, Amarylis C B A Wanschel, Kathryn J Moore, Edward A FisherAbstract:Objective—One of the major risk factors for atherosclerosis is the plasma level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which is a product of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL). Hepatic Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) is the essential component that provides structural stability to VLDL particles. Newly translated apoB100 is partially lipidated in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), forming nascent apoB100-VLDL particles. These particles are further modified to form fully mature VLDLs in the Golgi apparatus. Therefore, the transport of nascent VLDL from the ER to the Golgi represents a critical step during VLDL maturation and secretion and in regulating serum LDL cholesterol levels. Our previous studies showed that apoB100 exits the ER in coat complex II vesicles (COPII), but the cohort of related factors that control trafficking is poorly defined. Approach and Results—Expression levels of Kelch-like protein 12 (KLHL12), an adaptor protein known to assist COPII–dependent transport of procollagen, were manipulated by...

insulin stimulated degradation of Apolipoprotein B100 roles of class ii phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase and autophagy
PLOS ONE, 2013Co-Authors: Ursula Andreo, Liang Guo, Doru V Chirieac, Ana Tuyama, Emilie Montenont, Jeffrey L Brodsky, Edward A FisherAbstract:Both in humans and animal models, an acute increase in plasma insulin levels, typically following meals, leads to transient depression of hepatic secretion of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). One contributing mechanism for the decrease in VLDL secretion is enhanced degradation of Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100), which is required for VLDL formation. Unlike the degradation of nascent apoB100, which occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), insulin-stimulated apoB100 degradation occurs post-ER and is inhibited by pan-phosphatidylinositol (PI)3-kinase inhibitors. It is unclear, however, which of the three classes of PI3-kinases is required for insulin-stimulated apoB100 degradation, as well as the proteolytic machinery underlying this response. Class III PI3-kinase is not activated by insulin, but the other two classes are. By using a class I-specific inhibitor and siRNA to the major class II isoform in liver, we now show that it is class II PI3-kinase that is required for insulin-stimulated apoB100 degradation in primary mouse hepatocytes. Because the insulin-stimulated process resembles other examples of apoB100 post-ER proteolysis mediated by autophagy, we hypothesized that the effects of insulin in autophagy-deficient mouse primary hepatocytes would be attenuated. Indeed, apoB100 degradation in response to insulin was significantly impaired in two types of autophagy-deficient hepatocytes. Together, our data demonstrate that insulin-stimulated apoB100 degradation in the liver requires both class II PI3-kinase activity and autophagy.

huh 7 or hepg2 cells which is the better model for studying human Apolipoprotein B100 assembly and secretion
Journal of Lipid Research, 2011Co-Authors: Steven J R Meex, Ursula Andreo, Janet D Sparks, Edward A FisherAbstract:Apolipoprotein-B100 (apoB100) is the essential protein for the assembly and secretion of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) from liver. The hepatoma HepG2 cell line has been the cell line of choice for the study of synthesis and secretion of human apoB-100. Despite the general use of HepG2 cells to study apoB100 metabolism, they secrete relatively dense, lipid-poor particles compared with VLDL secreted in vivo. Recently, Huh-7 cells were adopted as an alternative model to HepG2 cells, with the implicit assumption that Huh-7 cells were superior in some respects of lipoprotein metabolism, including VLDL secretion. In this study we addressed the hypothesis that the spectrum of apoB100 lipoprotein particles secreted by Huh-7 cells more closely resembles the native state in human liver. We find that Huh-7 cells resemble HepG2 cells in the effects of exogenous lipids, microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP)-inhibition, and proteasome inhibitors of apoB100 secretion, recovery, and degradation. In contrast to HepG2 cells, however, MEK-ERK inhibition does not correct the defect in VLDL secretion. Huh-7 cells do not appear to offer any advantages over HepG2 cells as a general model of human apoB100-lipoprotein metabolism.

Apolipoprotein B100 exit from the endoplasmic reticulum er is copii dependent and its lipidation to very low density lipoprotein occurs post er
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2003Co-Authors: Viktoria Gusarova, Jeffrey L Brodsky, Edward A FisherAbstract:Hepatic Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) associates with lipids to form dense lipoprotein particles in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and is further lipidated to very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). Because the VLDL diameter can exceed 200 nm, classical ER-derived vesicles may be unable to accommodate VLDLs. Using hepatic membranes and cytosol to reconstitute ER budding, apoB100-containing vesicles sedimented distinct from those harboring more typical cargo but contained Sec23. Moreover, ER exit of apoB was inhibited by dominant-negative Sar1. Budding required Sar1 regardless of whether oleic acid (OA) was added to stimulate apoB lipidation; therefore, either large apoB100-lipoproteins reside in secretory vesicles, or full lipidation occurs post-ER. Using membranes from cells incubated in the presence or absence of OA, we determined that apoB100-lipoproteins in ER vesicles had not become lipidated to VLDLs. VLDL particles resided in the Golgi, but not the ER, after fractionation of OA-treated cells. We conclude that apoB100-lipoproteins exit the ER in COPII vesicles, but under conditions favorable for VLDL formation final lipid loading occurs post-ER.

nicotinic acid decreases Apolipoprotein B100 containing lipoprotein levels by reducing hepatic very low density lipoprotein secretion through a possible diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 inhibition in obese dogs
Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2010Co-Authors: Jerome Le Bloch, Maud Chetiveaux, T Magot, Michel Krempf, Veronique Leray, Benjamin Freuchet, Patrick Nguyen, Khadija OuguerramAbstract:Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100) is an essential component of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), both independent markers of cardiovascular risk.

disturbance of Apolipoprotein B100 containing lipoprotein metabolism in severe hyperlipidemic and lipodystrophic hiv patients on combined antiretroviral therapy evidences of insulin resistance effect
Medicinal Chemistry, 2008Co-Authors: Khadija Ouguerram, Maud Chetiveaux, Yassine Zair, Stephanie Billon, Cecile Brunetfrancois, Kalyane Ngohoubach, Clotilde Allavena, Veronique Reliquet, Brigitte Milpied, T MagotAbstract:The aim was to study the mechanisms involved in the dyslipidemia associated with lipodystrophy in HIV infected patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART). We investigated the in vivo kinetics of Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB) containing lipoproteins using a 14 h primed constant infusion of [5,5,5, (2)H(3)] leucine and compartmental modelling in normolipidemic without lipodystrophy (7 patients, NLD) or dyslipidemic with lipodystrophy (7 patients, LD) treated with ART. Subjects in group LD showed higher plasma triglycerides (5.73+/-3.58 vs 1.29+/-0.54 g/L, p<0.005), total cholesterol (2.98+/-0.95 vs 1.74+/-0.26 g/L, p<0.05), apoB (1.49+/-1.11 vs 0.51+/-0.11 g/L, p<0.005) and Apolipoprotein CIII in apoB containing lipoproteins (117.7+/-42.2 vs 22.6+/-23.9 g/L, p<0.005). LD subjects exhibited an insulin resistant as observed by higher HOMA (3.44+/-1.62 vs 1.60+/-0.61, p<0.05). They exhibited an increase in VLDL (1.24+/-0.33 vs 0.80+/-0.21 mg/kg/h, p<0.05), decrease in IDL (0.20+/-0.10 vs 0.48+/-0.24 mg/kg/h, p<0.05) and no difference in LDL (0.38+/-0.19 vs 0.45+/-0.25 mg/kg/h) production rate. LD subject also showed a dramatic decrease in transformation of VLDL to IDL (0.013+/-0.010 vs 0.258+/-0.206 h(-1), p<0.005) and IDL to LDL (0.088+/-0.093 vs 0.366+/-0.189 h(-1), p<0.05) and a decrease in fractional catabolic rate (FCR) of VLDL (0.199+/-0.132 vs 0.555+/-0.398 h(-1), p<0.05), IDL (0.110+/-0.08 vs 0.523+/-0.275 h(-1), p<0.05) and LDL (0.010+/-0.005 vs 0.025+/-0.014 h(-1), p<0.05). These disturbances, overproduction and an overall delayed catabolism of apoB, are similar to those observed using the same protocol in insulin resistant subjects. Our study suggests that metabolic disturbance of apoB100 observed in lipodystrophic HIV in combined antiretroviral therapy are consecutive to insulin resistance induced by the treatment.

fasting induces hyperlipidemia in mice overexpressing proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 lack of modulation of very low density lipoprotein hepatic output by the low density lipoprotein receptor

Apolipoprotein B100 metabolism in autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia related to mutations in pcsk9
Arteriosclerosis Thrombosis and Vascular Biology, 2004Co-Authors: Khadija Ouguerram, Maud Chetiveaux, Yassine Zair, Philippe Costet, Marianne Abifadel, Mathilde Varret, Catherine Boileau, T Magot, Michel KrempfAbstract:Objective— We have reported further heterogeneity in familial autosomal-dominant hypercholesterolemia (FH) related to mutation in proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene previously named neural apoptosis regulated convertase 1 (Narc-1).

PCSK9 mutation dramatically increased the production rate of Apolipoprotein B100 (3-fold) compared with controls or LDL-R mutated subjects, related to direct overproduction...
