ERRATUM

PMCID: PMC5036361  PMID: 27694134

The authors of “Angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4) promotes intracellular degradation of lipoprotein lipase in adipocytes” (J. Lipid Res. 2016. 57: 1670–1683) have advised the Journal that the last sentence of each of the figure legends for Figs. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 is incorrect. The descriptions within parentheses of the R and S gel bands were inadvertently swapped. The figure legends for these figures should read as follows:

Fig. 5.

ANGPTL4 lowers the amount of LPL on the adipocyte cell surface. A: Western blot of cell lysates of gWAT explants from Angptl4−/− and wild-type mice incubated in the absence or presence of heparin (50 IU/ml) for 3 h. Western blots were probed with antibodies against LPL and HSP90 (as loading control). B: Western blot of cell lysates of adipocytes that had been differentiated from stromal vascular fractions of WAT from Angptl4−/− and wild-type mice and incubated in the absence or presence of heparin (10 IU/ml) for 20 min. Western blots were probed with antibodies against LPL and HSP90 (as loading control). C: Angptl4 and Lpl mRNA levels in gWAT explants from Angptl4−/− and wild-type mice. D: Angptl4 and Lpl mRNA levels in adipocytes that had been differentiated from stromal vascular fractions of WAT from Angptl4−/− and wild-type mice. EndoH-resistant LPL (complex oligosaccharides; Golgi and cell surface LPL) is indicated with R; EndoH-sensitive LPL (high-mannose oligosaccharides, ER LPL) is indicated with S.

ANGPTL4 lowers LPL secretion. A: Western blot of media of gWAT explants from Angptl4−/− and wild-type mice treated in the absence or presence of heparin (50 IU/ml) for 3 h.

C: Western blot of media of adipocytes that had been differentiated from stromal vascular fractions of WAT from Angptl4−/− and wild-type mice. Cells were pretreated for 20 min with heparin (10 IU/ml), washed with PBS, and incubated with heparin (10 IU/ml) for the indicated times. Western blots were probed with antibodies against LPL and ADIPOQ. EndoH-resistant LPL (complex oligosaccharides; Golgi and cell surface LPL) is indicated with R; EndoH-sensitive LPL (high-mannose oligosaccharides, ER LPL) is indicated with S.
