Changes in heart and adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity following administration of Escherichia coli endotoxin [etox] were studied. Plasma triglyceride levels were elevated in animals given etox compared to saline-injected controls. Heart LPL activity decreased from 126.4 .mu.mol fatty acid released per g wet wt per h in control rats to < 22.5 .mu.mol/g per h by 7 h following the injection of etox. Although etox was administered in doses producing 0-100% mortalities in a 24-h period, myocardial LPL activity was depressed to the same extent (75-80%) regardless of dose. The response of adipose tissue was less pronounced. Epididymal fat pad LPL activity fell significantly over the 24 h observation period in control and etox-treated rats with the latter group somewhat more depressed 7 h after treatment. Hypertriglyceridemia often observed during endotoxic shock may be related to depressed LPL activity; the degree of depression is probably tissue dependent.
