Abstract:
:Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is essential for the hydrolysis of triglycerides (TG) and cholesteryl esters (CE) in lysosomes. A mouse model created by gene targeting produces no LAL mRNA, protein, or enzyme activity. The lal-/- mice appear normal at birth, survive into adulthood, and are fertile. Massive storage of TG and CE is observed in adult liver, adrenal glands, and small intestine. The age-dependent tissue and gross progression in this mouse model are detailed here. Although lal-/- mice can be bred to give homozygous litters, they die at ages of 7 to 8 months. The lal-/- mice develop enlargement of a single mesenteric lymph node that is full of stored lipids. At 6;-8 months of age, the lal-/- mice have completely absent inguinal, interscapular, and retroperitoneal white adipose tissue. In addition, brown adipose tissue is progressively lost. The plasma free fatty acid levels are significantly higher in lal-/- mice than age-matched lal+/+ mice, and plasma insulin levels were more elevated upon glucose challenge. Energy intake was also higher in lal-/- male mice, although age-matched body weights were not significantly altered from age-matched lal+/+ mice. Early in the disease course, hepatocytes are the main storage cell in the liver; by 3;-8 months, the lipid-stored Kupffer cells progressively fill the liver. The involvement of macrophages throughout the body of lal-/- mice provide evidence for a critical nonappreciated role of LAL in cellular cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism, adipocyte differentiation, and fat mobilization.
