The requirement of the activity of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) for very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion was determined using McA-RH7777 cells stably transfected with human apoB48 (hB48). Secretion of VLDL containing hB48 (hB48-VLDL) by the transfected cells was induced by exogenous oleate (0.4 mm), and oleate-dependent VLDL secretion was selectively inhibited by brefeldin A (0.2 μg/ml). Two protocols were used to determine the effect of MTP inhibition on VLDL secretion. In the first protocol, cell protein and lipid were labeled with radioactive amino acids and oleate prior to MTP inhibition (using 5 μm of the photoaffinity inhibitor BMS-192951 to reduce MTP activity by 65–70%), and secretion of prelabeled apoB and triacylglycerol (TG) associated with lipoproteins was monitored during oleate-supplemented chase. In control cells, a 6-fold increase in incorporation of prelabeled TG into hB48-VLDL was observed after oleate supplement, while incorporation of prelabeled TG into VLDL containing endogenous rat apoB100 (rB100-VLDL) was unaffected. Inhibition of MTP activity abolished the oleate-induced utilization of prelabeled TG (by 80%) and hB48 (by 70%) for hB48-VLDL secretion but decreased utilization of pre-existing TG (by <25%) and B100 (by 45%) for rB100-VLDL secretion to a lesser extent. Inhibition of MTP did not affect incorporation of prelabeled TG or hB48 into high density lipoproteins containing hB48 (hB48-HDL). In the second protocol, MTP was inactivated prior to metabolic labeling of protein and lipid, and secretion of newly labeled apoB and TG as lipoproteins was monitored after oleate supplement. Under this condition, MTP inhibition decreased incorporation of newly labeled TG (by 80%) and hB48 (80%) into hB48-VLDL but did not affect their incorporation into hB48-HDL. Additionally, MTP inhibition decreased incorporation of newly labeled TG (by 50%) and rB100 (by 90%) into rB100-VLDL. Thus, normal activity of MTP is required for the oleate-induced secretion of hB48-VLDL from McA-RH7777 cells. The requirement of the activity of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) for very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion was determined using McA-RH7777 cells stably transfected with human apoB48 (hB48). Secretion of VLDL containing hB48 (hB48-VLDL) by the transfected cells was induced by exogenous oleate (0.4 mm), and oleate-dependent VLDL secretion was selectively inhibited by brefeldin A (0.2 μg/ml). Two protocols were used to determine the effect of MTP inhibition on VLDL secretion. In the first protocol, cell protein and lipid were labeled with radioactive amino acids and oleate prior to MTP inhibition (using 5 μm of the photoaffinity inhibitor BMS-192951 to reduce MTP activity by 65–70%), and secretion of prelabeled apoB and triacylglycerol (TG) associated with lipoproteins was monitored during oleate-supplemented chase. In control cells, a 6-fold increase in incorporation of prelabeled TG into hB48-VLDL was observed after oleate supplement, while incorporation of prelabeled TG into VLDL containing endogenous rat apoB100 (rB100-VLDL) was unaffected. Inhibition of MTP activity abolished the oleate-induced utilization of prelabeled TG (by 80%) and hB48 (by 70%) for hB48-VLDL secretion but decreased utilization of pre-existing TG (by <25%) and B100 (by 45%) for rB100-VLDL secretion to a lesser extent. Inhibition of MTP did not affect incorporation of prelabeled TG or hB48 into high density lipoproteins containing hB48 (hB48-HDL). In the second protocol, MTP was inactivated prior to metabolic labeling of protein and lipid, and secretion of newly labeled apoB and TG as lipoproteins was monitored after oleate supplement. Under this condition, MTP inhibition decreased incorporation of newly labeled TG (by 80%) and hB48 (80%) into hB48-VLDL but did not affect their incorporation into hB48-HDL. Additionally, MTP inhibition decreased incorporation of newly labeled TG (by 50%) and rB100 (by 90%) into rB100-VLDL. Thus, normal activity of MTP is required for the oleate-induced secretion of hB48-VLDL from McA-RH7777 cells.

J. Biol. Chem. 1992; 267: 25621-25624Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Google Scholar). Although the physiological significance of having two forms of apoB in rat liver is not clear (2Farese Jr., R.V. Véniant M.M. Cham C.M. Flynn L.M. Pierotti V. Loring J.F. Ruland S. Stokowski R.S. Huszar D. Young S.G. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 1996; 93: 6393-6398Crossref PubMed Scopus (112) Google Scholar), both forms of apoB have the ability to assemble very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) (3Elovson J. Chatterton J.E. Bell G.T.

The mechanism by which hepatic VLDL is synthesized has not been completely defined. However, significant progress has been made over the past several years concerning the formation and secretion of VLDL containing apoB48 (B48-VLDL) (4Innerarity T.L. Borén J. Yamanaka S. Olofsson S.-O. J. Biol. Chem. 1996; 271: 2353-2356Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (122) Google Scholar). Biochemical evidence has been obtained through studies with primary rat hepatocytes (5Elovson, J., and Doolittle, M. H. (1994) Circulation, 90, Suppl. I, 185 (abstr.).Google Scholar, 6Swift L.L. J.

Chem. 1994; 269: 25879-25888Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Google Scholar) that B48-VLDL is assembled via two discontinuous lipidation stages in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In the first stage, apoB48 is associated with a small amount of lipid to form a primordial particle with high buoyant density. These high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles (designated B48-HDL) may be secreted from the cells if further lipid recruitment does not occur. Alternatively, the B48-HDL particle can undergo a second lipidation stage, expanding its lipid content, primarily triacylglycerol (TG), to form VLDL. This “two-step” assembly model is consistent with the early immunohistochemical studies of hepatic VLDL assembly in rats (8Alexander C.A. Hamilton R.L. Havel R.J. J. Cell Biol. 1976; 69: 241-263Crossref PubMed Scopus (252) Google Scholar). In rat hepatoma cells, the conversion of B48-HDL into B48-VLDL is associated with increased synthesis of cellular lipid, and the process can be inhibited by brefeldin A (9Rustaeus S. Lindberg K. Borén J. Olofsson S.-O. J. Biol. Chem. 1995; 270: 28879-28886Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (66) Google Scholar) or cycloheximide (7Borén J. Rustaeus S. Olofsson S.-O. J. Biol. Chem. 1994; 269: 25879-25888Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Google Scholar). These results suggest that in addition to active TG synthesis, other factors involved in vesicular trafficking or lipid mobilization may participate in the second stage of B48-VLDL formation. The microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is a heterodimeric protein consisting of a 97-kDa catalytic subunit noncovalently linked to protein-disulfide isomerase (10Gordon D.A. Wetterau J. Gregg R.E. Trends Cell Biol. 1995; 5: 317-321Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (118) Google Scholar). The ability of MTP to transfer TG between lipid membranes has been demonstrated in vitro (11Jamil H. Dickson Jr., J.K. Chu C.-H. Lago M.W. Rinehart J.K. Biller S.A. Gregg R.E. Wetterau J.R. J. Biol.

Nature. 1993; 365: 65-69Crossref PubMed Scopus (394) Google Scholar). In HepG2 cells, a physical association between the hydrophobic sequences of apoB and MTP has been detected (14Wu X. Zhou M. Huang L.-S. Wetterau J. Ginsberg H.N. J. Biol. Chem. 1996; 271: 10277-10281Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (122) Google Scholar). It is unclear, however, whether the direct interaction between MTP and apoB is essential for the recruitment of lipid. The functional role of MTP in the secretion of lipoproteins containing apoB has been demonstrated by co-expression of MTP and apoB in heterologous cells that normally produce neither protein (15Gordon D.A.
