Colorimetric Measurement of Triglycerides Cannot Provide an Accurate Measure of Stored Fat Content in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Drosophila melanogaster has recently emerged as a useful model system in which to study the genetic basis of regulation of fat storage. One of the most frequently used methods for evaluating the levels of stored fat (triglycerides) in flies is a coupled ...

Post-Heparin Triacylglycerol Lipases in Ovine Plasma [PDF]

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1988
Lipoprotein lipase and hepatic lipase have been shown to be present in the post-heparin plasma of sheep. Intravenous injection of heparin into sheep produced a rapid increase in the free fatty acid concentration and lipolytic enzyme activity of the plasma, both peaking within 5-15 min and then falling to pre-heparin levels within 30-60 min.

Loss of hepatic SMLR1 causes hepatosteatosis and protects against atherosclerosis due to decreased hepatic VLDL secretion

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The role of SMLR1 in lipid metabolism (high fat + cholesterol diet in mice) Abstract Background and Aims The assembly and secretion of VLDL from the liver, a pathway that affects hepatic and plasma lipids, remains incompletely understood. We set out to identify players in the VLDL biogenesis pathway by identifying genes that are co‐expressed with the ...

The influence of fasting/refeeding on the lipoprotein lipase activity of adipose tissue and muscle

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001
Lipoprotein lipase activity in adipose tissue and muscle is modulated by changes in the pattern of food intake. We have measured total lipoprotein lipase activity in adipose tissue and muscle of male Wistar rats (N = 6-10), weighing 200-250 g (~12 weeks),

Structural basis of the chiral selectivity of Pseudomonas cepacia lipase [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
To investigate the enantioselectivity of Pseudomonas cepacia lipase, inhibition studies were performed with SC- and RC-(RP,SP)-1,2-dialkylcarbamoylglycero-3-O-p-nitrophenyl alkylphosphonates of different alkyl chain lengths. P.

Perilipin regulates the thermogenic actions of norepinephrine in brown adipose tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In response to cold, norepinephrine (NE)-induced triacylglycerol hydrolysis (lipolysis) in adipocytes of brown adipose tissue (BAT) provides fatty acid substrates to mitochondria for heat generation (adaptive thermogenesis).

The pleiotropic transcriptional regulator NlpR contributes to the modulation of nitrogen metabolism, lipogenesis and triacylglycerol accumulation in oleaginous rhodococci [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The regulatory mechanisms involved in lipogenesis and triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation are largely unknown in oleaginous rhodococci. In this study a regulatory protein (here called NlpR: Nitrogen lipid Regulator), which contributes to the modulation of

Inhibition of lipases by ∊-polylysine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Oral administration of ∊-polylysine to rats reduced the peak plasma triacylglycerol concentration. In vitro, ∊-polylysine and polylysine strongly inhibited the hydrolysis, by either pancreatic lipase or carboxylester lipase, of trioleoylglycerol (TO ...

Insulin resistance in type 1 diabetes: what is ‘double diabetes’ and what are the risks? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this review, we explore the concept of ‘double diabetes’, a combination of type 1 diabetes with features of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
