Perilipin A is a lipid droplet-associated protein that controls triacylglycerol storage and hydrolysis in adipocytes. Lipolysis of triacylglycerols by adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is enabled by the phosphorylation

The cytosolic lipid droplets (cLDs) store excess intracellular lipids, and perilipin-2 is believed to protect cLDs from degradation. Here, we investigated the role of the small G-protein Arf1 and the proteasome in the fates of perilipin-2 and cLDs.

Lipid droplets (LDs) are dynamic organelles that participate in the regulation of lipid metabolism and cellular homeostasis inside of cells. LD-associated proteins, also known as perilipins (PLINs), are a family of proteins found on the surface of LDs ...

Lipolysis and lipases in white adipose tissue – An update
Lipolysis is defined as the sequential hydrolysis of triacylglycerol (TAG) stored in cell lipid droplets. For many years, it was believed that hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) were the main enzymes catalyzing lipolysis in ...

A decrease in the lipid droplet-associated protein perilipin may constitute a mechanism for enhanced adipocyte lipolysis under nonstimulated (basal) conditions, and increased basal lipolysis has been linked to whole body metabolic dysregulation. Here we investigated whether the lipolytic actions of the human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitor ...

Evidence of a Perilipin 5 Splice Variant [PDF]
Alternative splicing occurs throughout the human genome, leading to multiple proteins from a single gene. The resulting proteins can be nearly identical or vastly different in how they function.

The pathway of LD formation in adipose cells featured by perilipin and vimentin localization.
Delineated stages of the endogenous LD-formation are schematically presented with additional brief descriptions of individual steps and involved proteins and organelles, respectively.

Inhibit of Transport of Perilipin 5
Perilipin 5 is involved in insulin sensitivity and lipid breakdown which if not regulated properly causes many metabolic diseases. Obesity, type II diabetes, hepatic steatosis, and atherosclerosis are caused by excess neutral lipid storage (Zehmer, J. K.,

Human skeletal muscle perilipin 2 and 3 expression varies with insulin sensitivity
Background: Impaired insulin sensitivity may partly arise from a dysregulated lipid metabolism in human skeletal muscle. This study investigates the expression levels of perilipin 2, 3, and 5, and four key lipases in human skeletal muscle from the ...

The significance of lipid droplets (LD) in lipid metabolism, cell signaling, and membrane trafficking is increasingly recognized, yet the role of the LD phospholipid monolayer in LD protein targeting and function remains unknown. To begin to address this
