During prolonged fasting, the liver plays a central role in maintaining systemic energy homeostasis by producing glucose and ketones in processes fueled by oxidation of fatty acids liberated from adipose tissue.

Abstract Microalgae accumulate triacylglycerols (TAGs) as storage lipids in response to nutrient limitation, yet the mechanisms governing TAG turnover remain incompletely understood. In the oleaginous microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica, functional studies of TAG degradation have focused on lipases containing patatin domains, whereas the roles of other ...

A re-examination of the fate of glyceride-glycerol in neutral lipid absorption and transport
Conventional ideas concerning the unidirectional movement of triacylglycerol from intestinal lumen to lymph with sn-2-monoacylglycerol being the major glyceride-glycerol precursor were challenged by our finding that steady state specific activities of ...

Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is a serine hydrolase that plays a crucial role catalysing the hydrolysis of monoglycerides into glycerol and fatty acids.

This scheme illustrates the main results of the present study showing an increase in circulating free fatty acids (FFA) that are likely to be related to several mechanisms like decrease in FFA insulin sensitivity and increase in FFA production. Significant changes are labelled in white, and non‐significant or hypothesis are labelled in pale green ...

Current assays of phospholipase A1 (EC 3.1.1.32) and monoacylglycerol lipase (EC 3.1.1.23) activities in tissues are discontinuous, laborious, and expensive. Some spectrophotometric substrates were synthesized to alleviate this problem. Thioester analogs

ABSTRACT The polar lipids in oat grains are crucial due to their biological functions, nutritional quality, potential use in food flavour and processing, the protection they provide against biotic and abiotic stresses, and their ability to act as cellular signalling molecules.

Abstract Improving adipose tissue (AT) metabolism through exercise might increase production of lipokines from the fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFA) family. Although exercise training can increase insulin sensitivity and levels of specific FAHFA in AT and the circulation in humans, the effects of acute exercise on FAHFA levels remain ...

Dietary fats are converted into chylomicron triacylglycerols via the 2-monoacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid pathways of acylglycerol formation. In view of the known positional and fatty acid specificity of the acyltransferases, the triacylglycerol ...
