Fat Mobilization in Adipose Tissue Is Promoted by Adipose Triglyceride Lipase

TL;DR: It is reported that a second enzyme, adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), catalyzes the initial step in triglyceride hydrolysis, and it is interesting that ATGL contains a “patatin domain” common to plant acyl-hydrolases.
Journal ArticleDOI

FAT SIGNALS - Lipases and Lipolysis in Lipid Metabolism and Signaling

TL;DR: New findings that lipolytic products and intermediates participate in cellular signaling processes and that “lipolytic signaling” is particularly important in many nonadipose tissues unveil a previously underappreciated aspect of lipolysis, which may be relevant for human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adipose triglyceride lipase-mediated lipolysis of cellular fat stores is activated by CGI-58 and defective in Chanarin-Dorfman Syndrome.

TL;DR: Exercise of functional CGI-58 in CDS fibroblasts restores lipolysis and reverses the abnormal TG accumulation typical for CDS, establishing an important biochemical function for CGI- 58 in the lipolytic degradation of fat.

Cardioprotection and lifespan extension by the natural polyamine spermidine

Tobias Eisenberg, +69 more
- 01 Dec 2016 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that oral supplementation of the natural polyamine spermidine extends the lifespan of mice and exerts cardioprotective effects, reducing cardiac hypertrophy and preserving diastolic function in old mice, and suggests a new and feasible strategy for protection against cardiovascular disease.
