Regulation of protein kinase B and glycogen synthase kinase-3 by insulin and beta-adrenergic agonists in rat epididymal fat cells - Activation of protein kinase B by wortmannin-sensitive and -insensittve mechanisms [PDF]
Previous studies using L6 myotubes have suggested that glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is phosphoryl ated and inactivated in response to insulin by protein kinase B (PKB, also known as Akt or RAG) (Cross, D, A, E., Alessi, D, R., Cohen, P ...

Differential effects of dietary supplements on metabolomic profile of smokers versus non-smokers. [PDF]
BackgroundCigarette smoking is well-known to associate with accelerated skin aging as well as cardiovascular disease and lung cancer, in large part due to oxidative stress.

Cell-intrinsic lysosomal lipolysis is essential for macrophage alternative activation
Alternative (M2) activation of macrophages driven via the α-chain of the receptor for interleukin 4 (IL-4Rα) is important for immunity to parasites, wound healing, the prevention of atherosclerosis and metabolic homeostasis.

Adipose tissue lipolysis is the process by which triglycerides in lipid stores are hydrolyzed into free fatty acids (FFAs), serving as fuel during fasting or cold-induced thermogenesis.

Performance of three commercial lipases in a model enzyme modified cheese system : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Technology in Food Technology at Massey University [PDF]
The effects of Amano 'R' (from Penicillium roqueforti), Palatase (from Mucor miehei) and kid lipase (from kid goat) activity on hydrolysis of triglycerides in a constant enzyme modified cheese (EMC) base have been investigated.

Protein kinase CβI interacts with the β1-adrenergic signaling pathway to attenuate lipolysis in rat adipocytes [PDF]
We have shown previously that insulin attenuates β1-adrenergic receptor (β1-AR)-mediated lipolysis viaactivation of protein kinase C (PKC) in rat adipocytes.

Cancer stem cells obtain energy demand through the activation of glycolysis and lipolysis. It seems that the use of approached targeting glycolysis and lipolysis could be an effective strategy for the inhibition of cancer stem cells.

The pharmacology and function of receptors for short-chain fatty acids [PDF]
Despite some blockbuster G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) drugs, only a small fraction (∼15%) of the more than 390 nonodorant GPCRs have been successfully targeted by the pharmaceutical industry.

Conjugated linoleic acid and betaine affect lipolysis in pig adipose tissue explants
Consumers’ demand of leaner meat products is a challenge. Although betaine and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) have the potential to decrease porcine adipose tissue, their mode of action is poorly understood.
