Abstract:
:Epinephrine was used to activate the heparin non-releasable lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in the 3 skeletal muscle fiber types of the perfused rat hindlimb. Following a 9 min washout of the capillary-bound lipoprotein lipase, the hindquarter of the rat was perfused with a buffer containing 10 nM of epinephrine. Activity of the residual LPL in soleus, red vastus lateralis, and white vastus lateralis muscles increased 75%, 96%, and 102% respectively, following epinephrine perfusion. These results suggest that skeletal muscle LPL is under hormonal control possibly through protein phosphorylation by cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase.
