TLDR
In this paper, the major yeast TG lipase Tgl4, the functional ortholog of the murine adipose Tgl lipase ATGL, is phosphorylated and activated by cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1/Cdc28) for early bud formation in late G1 phase of the cell cycle.

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.

A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

Obesity and the Regulation of Energy Balance

TL;DR: The last 5 years of the millennium have witnessed a dramatic increase in understanding of the biology of regulated energy balance and body weight, and insights from the sequencing of the human genome and the coming advances in proteomics are likely to fuel the next wave of progress.

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.

Triglyceride accumulation protects against fatty acid-induced lipotoxicity

TL;DR: This work demonstrates in cultured cells that the relative toxicity of two common dietary long chain fatty acids is related to channeling of these lipids to distinct cellular metabolic fates, and supports a model of cellular lipid metabolism in which unsaturated fatty acids serve a protective function against lipotoxicity though promotion of triglyceride accumulation.

The function of cytidine coenzymes in the biosynthesis of phospholipides.

TL;DR: The ratio of P32 to Cl4 in the product was closely similar to that of the labeled P-choline, suggesting incorporation of both phosphorus and choline as an intact unit into a phospholipide, presumably lecithin.
