Epigenetic mechanisms involved in gene expression play an essential role in various cellular processes, including lipid metabolism. Lysine acetyltransferase 8 (KAT8), a histone acetyltransferase, has been reported to mediate de novo lipogenesis by ...

Potential of Traditional Medicinal Plants for Treating Obesity: A Review [PDF]
Obesity is a global health concern associated with high morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic strategies include synthetic drugs and surgery, which may entail high costs and serious complications. Plant-based medicinal agents offer an alternative approach.

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.

The Subtle Balance between Lipolysis and Lipogenesis: A Critical Point in Metabolic Homeostasis
Excessive accumulation of lipids can lead to lipotoxicity, cell dysfunction and alteration in metabolic pathways, both in adipose tissue and peripheral organs, like liver, heart, pancreas and muscle.

Suppression of adipose lipolysis by long-chain fatty acid analogs
Agonist-induced lipolysis of adipose fat is robustly inhibited by insulin or by feedback inhibition by the long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) produced during lipolysis. However, the mode of action of LCFA in suppressing adipose lipolysis is not clear.

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a biologically active fatty acid that reduces the accumulation of lipids. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this process, particularly in fish, is not well understood. Recent studies show that endoplasmic reticulum

Relationship between cyclic AMP production and lipolysis induced by forskolin in rat fat cells.
Forskolin (7 beta-acetoxy-8, 13-epoxy-1 alpha,6 beta,9 alpha-trihydroxy-labd-14-ene-11-one) induced both cyclic AMP production and lipolysis in intact fat cells, but stimulated lipolysis without increasing cyclic AMP at a concentration of 10(-5) M ...

Growth hormone acts along the PPARγ-FSP27 axis to stimulate lipolysis in human adipocytes.
The lipolytic effects of growth hormone (GH) have been known for half a century and play an important physiological role for substrate metabolism during fasting.
