High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels are associated with decreased risk of coronary artery disease. Several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for HDL cholesterol levels have implicated Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) as possibly being causal. Herein, the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs10503669 in the LPL gene and HDL cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels was tested in the Korean population. A total of 994 subjects from Seoul City were included in a replication study with LPL SNP rs10503669. SNP rs10503669 in the LPL gene was associated with mean HDL cholesterol levels (effect per allele 3.13 mg/dL, P<0.0001) and triglyceride levels (effect per allele -18.0 mg/dL, P=0.0026). Subjects with the CA/AA genotype had a 0.42-fold (range 0.23~0.77-fold) lower risk of having abnormal HDL cholesterol levels (<40 mg/dL) than subjects with the CC genotype. When analyzed by gender, the association of LPL was stronger in men than in women. This study clearly demonstrates that genetic variants in LPL influence HDL cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels in Korean adults.

Polymorphism of the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene which plays an important role in regulation of lipid deposition was analysed in two red seabream (pagrus major) populations (KF4, cultured KORDI line, n=100 : JPN, imported from Japan, n=100). We amplified a DNA fragment (1,091 bp) including the exon 2 region of the LPL gene, and conducted PCR-RFLP analysis using MspI and AluI. The PCR products were also sequenced. Two alleles (A and B) were found in MspI digestion and Sve alleles (A, B, C, D and E) in AluI digestion. The sequenced data revealed four nucleotide substitutions including one transversion at the MspI recognition site (nt 2,235, $C{\rightarrow}10$) and three transitions at the AluI recognition sites (nt 1,721, $A{\rightarrow}G;$ nt 2,319, $C{\rightarrow}T;$ nt 2,319, $T{\rightarrow}C$). Among them, substitutions at the nt 2,235 and 2,319 sites which are located in the exon 2 were proved to be silent point mutations. MspI polymorphism resulted in 3 genotypes, and the allele frequency was significantly different between the two fish populations, KF4 and JPN. In the case of AluI polymorphism, the 5 alleles (A, B, C, D, E) comprised 12 genotypes of the 5 alleles. KF4 population, alleles D and I were specific to the LPL gene Polymorphisms would be useful DNA markers for red seabream population.

Essential hypertension is considered to be caused by a complicated combination of genetic and environmental factors. Alterations of lipid metabolism in plasma have been reported to be related to an increased risk of essential hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between two genetic polymorphisms (Pvu II and Hind III RELPs) of the human lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene and essential hypertension in korean population. In our result the Pvu II RFLP of LPL gene was significantly associated with essential hypertension (P < 0.05). Therefore, we suggest that the Pvu II RFLP of LPL gene may be useful as a genetic marker for essential hypertension in Korean population.

본 연구에는 최근 항비만 소재로 연구되고 있는 건조, 미숙탱자의 물 추출물 (PF-W) 소재를 대상으로 폴리페놀 ($52.15{\pm}4.02mg/g$)과 플라보노이드 ($6.56{\pm}0.47mg/g$) 함량을 측정하고 항산화 활성과 세포독성을 시험한 후, 지방 흡수 제어 가능성을 확인하고자 lipoprotein lipase (LPL)의 억제효능을 배양배지와 세포 내의 LPL 함량, LPL mRNA 발현 그리고 LPL 효소활성측정을 통해 검토하였다. 그 결과 PF-W은 3T3-L1 adipocyte에서 LPL mRNA의 발현과 활성에는 영향이 없었으며, LPL의 분비를 억제하는 것을 알 수 있었다. PF-W의 LPL 분비억제기작을 확인하기 위해 다양한 단백질 이동 관련 유전자의 발현을 확인하였고, 그 결과 LPL의 이동과 분해에 관여하여 세포내 LPL의 활성을 조절하는 것으로 알려진 SorLA의 발현이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 이를 조절하는 transcription factor의 발현과 세포핵으로의 이동에 PF-W가 미치는 영향을 검토한 결과 PF-W를 처리함으로써 SorLA promoter 에 작용하는 $C/EBP{\beta}$의 단백질양이 세포핵에서 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 PF-W가 SorLA 유전자의 transcription factor인 $C/EBP{\beta}$의 단백질 발현을 세포핵에서 증가시킴으로써 SorLA의 발현이 증가되어 LPL의 분비억제가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었으며 이는 PF-W의 항비만 효과기전을 설명하는 기초자료를 제공하는 것이라 사료된다.

다섯 종류의 실험유지로 고등어유, 장어유, 콩기름, 채종유 및 쇠기름을 사용하여 먹이의 10%(w/w)되는 조제식이를 2주간 휜쥐에게 시행하여, 혈장, 심장, 지방조직의 lipoprotein lipase의 활성도, mitochondrial respiration측정하고, mitochondrial membrane matrix 지질의 지방산구성을 조사하였다. Lipoprotein lipase의 활성은 혈장에서는 쇠기름군이 식물유 및 어유군에 비해 약 60%정도 높고, 지방조직에서는 거의 3배가량 높았으나, 식물유와 어유군 간에는 차이가 없었다. 각 군간에 mitochondrial respiration율은 심장조직에서는 차이가 별로 없었고, 채종유군이 P/O ratio가 심장, 간장조직에서 모두 낮았고 어유(魚油)군의 간장조직mitochondrial respiration이 타조직에 비해 낮았다. Mitochondrial inner membrane matrix분획의 지질 지방산조성은 콩기름군에서 $C_{18:2}$, $C_{20:4}$ 함량이 높고 고등어유군은$C_{22:1}$가 간장조직에서 발견되는 반면 채종유군은 동일 지방산이 심장 mitochondria에서 발견되었다.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of dietary xylooligosaccharides on lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activitiy in epididymal adipose tissue and lipid composition in serum of rats fed normal or high fat diet. Male Sprague-Dawley male rats weighing 100 $\pm$ 10 g were randomly divided into four groups, two normal diets and two high fat diets containing 1% cholesterol and 10% lard. Two normal diets were classified into a basal diet (normal group) and that with 10% xylooligosaccharide diet (NX group). The high fat diet groups were classified into a HF group without xylooligosaccharides diet and HFX group supplemented with 10% xylooligosacchride diet. Experimental diets were fed ad libitum to the rats for 4 weeks and then they were sacrificed. Body weight, epididymal weight and abdominal weight in HF group were hevier than the those of normal group, but HFX group was significantly reduced compared to HF group. Relative body weight to epididymal weight and relative body weight to abdominal weight in HF group were increased to 50%, 51%, respectively, compared to normal group, but HFX group was reduced 22%, 16%, respectively, compared to HF group. The levels of serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and atherogenic index in HFX groups were significantly lower than those of HF group, whereas HDL-cholesterol levels were significant increased. Triglyceride contents of epididymal adipose tissue in HF group was increased to 39%, compared to normal group, but HFX group was reduced to 15.8%, compared to HF group. Cholesterol contents of epididymal adipose tissue in HF group was increased 121%, compared to normal group, but HFX group was reduced to 26%, compared to HF group. The activity of LPL in epididymal adipose tissue was increased to 259% in HF group, compared to normal group and HFX group was reduced to 66%, compared to HF group. These result of this study suggested that improved lipid metabolism observed in rats fed xylooligosaccharides may be caused by an alteration of LPL activity in epididymal adipose tissue and lipid composition in serum.

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) plays an essential role in the regulation of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and triglyceride levels, which have been closely associated with cardiovascular diseases. Genetic studies in European have shown that LPL single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are strongly associated with lipid levels. However, studies about the influence of interactions between LPL SNPs and lifestyle factors have not been sufficiently performed. Here, we examine if LPL polymorphisms, as well as their interaction with lifestyle factors, influence lipid concentrations in a Korean population. A two-stage association study was performed using genotype data for SNPs on the LPL gene, including the 3' flanking region from 7,536 (stage 1) and 3,703 (stage 2) individuals. The association study showed that 15 SNPs and 4 haplotypes were strongly associated with HDLC (lowest $p=2.86{\times}10^{-22}$) and triglyceride levels (lowest $p=3.0{\times}10^{-15}$). Interactions between LPL polymorphisms and lifestyle factors (lowest $p=9.6{\times}10^{-4}$) were also observed on lipid concentrations. These findings suggest that there are interaction effects of LPL polymorphisms with lifestyle variables, including energy intake, fat intake, smoking, and alcohol consumption, as well as effects of LPL polymorphisms themselves, on lipid concentrations in a Korean population.

반복적인 복통, 췌장염이 있을 때, 혈액검사에서 중성지방 등의 지질분석을 통해 가족성 킬로미크론혈증의 감별이 필요하며 필요시 LPL 활성도, apo C-II 검사를 실시해야한다. 가족성 킬로미크론혈증으로 진단되었을 경우 식이요법과 약물요법으로 혈중 중성지방을 낮추어 반복적인 췌장염의 발생을 줄이도록 하며, 소아의 경우 식이요법이 어려우므로 보호자와 환자에 대한 교육 역시 중요하다.

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL)은 지방축적과 대사에 있어 중요한 효소로서 지방조직과 근육 내로의 지방산 유입을 조절하며, 여러 조직에서 합성되고, 조직 특이적인 방법으로 동물의 생리상태, 영양상태 및 발달단계에 따라 유전자 발현이 조절되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 어류의 체지방 축적과 대사과정을 이해하고 성장 및 경제형질 관련 DNA marker를 확보하기 위한 1차적인 연구로서, 한국산 선발계통 및 일본산 양식계통과 이들 두 계통간 잡종 참돔 집단을 이용하여 LPL 유전자 내의 다형성을 탐색하고 분석하였다. PCR-RFLP 분석을 실시하여 참돔 LPL 유전자 exon 2번을 포함하는 영역에서 3개의 (Msp I, Alu I 및 Hsp92II) 다형성을 확인하였고, 각 집단간 대립유전자의 빈도를 분석하였다. Exon 2번에서 관찰된 Msp I 다형성은 염기치환 (C$\longrightarrow$G)이 일어난 형태로서 아미노산 서열에는 변화가 없는 silent mutation 이었으며, 대립유전자의 빈도를 분석한 결과, 각 집단간 뚜렷한 차이는 없었다. Alu I 및 Hsp92II 다형성은 intron 영역에서 발견되었으며, Alu I 다형성으로 인한 4개의 대립유전자형 중 D 대립유전자는 한국산 선발 계통과 한국산 선발계통을 포함하는 교배집단에서만 검출되었다. 이 후의 연구에서는 참돔 LPL 유전자의 exon 영역에 존재하는 다형성을 탐색하고, 형질과의 연관성 및 지방축적 기능과의 관련성 등을 분석하고자 한다.

Obesity, an intractable metabolic disease, currently has no medical treatment without side effects, so studies have been actively carried out to find natural compounds that have anti-obesity activity with minimum side effects. In this study, the anti-obesity effects of water extracts of seven Capsicum annuum L. varieties being Putgochu (Pca), Oyee gochu (Oca), Kwari putgochu (Kca), Green pepper (Gca), Yellow paprika (Yca), Red paprika (Rca) and Cheongyang gochu (Cca), were examined through the evaluation of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mRNA expression level in 3T3-L1 cells (mouse pre-adipocytes). After capsaicin elimination by chloroform defatting, freeze-dried powder of Cca was treated to 3T3-L1 cells and anti-obesity effects were examined by determining the LPL mRNA level using the RT-PCR method. Of the primary fractions, only proven fractions underwent secondary and tertiary refractionating to determine anti-obesity effects. From seven different Capsicum annuum L., there was a significant decrease of the LPL mRNA expression level of 50.9% in Cca treatment compared to the control group. A significant decrease of the LPL mRNA expression level was shown in primary fractions (Fr) 5 (36.2% decrease) and 6 (30.5% decrease) of the Cca water extracts. Due to the impurities checked by UPLC chromatography, Fr 5 and 6 were refractionated to determine the LPL mRNA expression level. Treatment of Fr 6-6 (35.8% decrease) and Fr 5-6 (35.3% decrease) showed a significant decrease in the LPL mRNA expression level. When analyzed using UPLC, major compounds of Fr 6-6 and Fr 5-6 were very similar. Subsequently, we refractionated Fr 6-6 and Fr 5-6 to isolate the major peak for structure elucidation. Treatment of Fr 5-6-1 (26.6% decrease) and Fr 6-6-1 (29.7% decrease) showed a significant decrease in the LPL mRNA expression level. Consequently, the fractions may have a possibility to ameliorate obesity through the decrease of the LPL mRNA expression level.
