The G(0)/G(1) switch gene 2 regulates adipose lipolysis through association with adipose triglyceride lipase.
Adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) is the rate-limiting enzyme for triacylglycerol (TAG) hydrolysis in adipocytes. The precise mechanisms whereby ATGL is regulated remain uncertain. Here, we demonstrate that a protein encoded by G(0)/G(1) switch gene 2 (G0S2) is a selective regulator of ATGL. G0S2 is highly expressed in adipose tissue and differentiated adipocytes. When overexpressed in HeLa ce...
متن کاملThe metabolic "switch" AMPK regulates cardiac heparin-releasable lipoprotein lipase.
The "fuel gauge" AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) facilitates ATP production to meet energy demands during metabolic stress. Given the importance of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in providing hearts with fatty acids (FA), the preferred substrate consumed by the heart, the objective of the present study was to investigate whether activation of AMPK influences LPL at its functionally relevant locat...
متن کاملOverexpression of G0/G1 Switch Gene 2 in Adipose Tissue of Transgenic Quail Inhibits Lipolysis Associated with Egg Laying
In avians, yolk synthesis is regulated by incorporation of portomicrons from the diet, transport of lipoproteins from the liver, and release of lipids from adipose tissue; however, the extent to which lipolysis in adipose tissue contributes to yolk synthesis and egg production has yet to be elucidated. G0/G1 switch gene 2 (G0S2) is known to bind and inhibit adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), t...
متن کاملCopper Regulates Cyclic AMP-Dependent Lipolysis
Cell signaling relies extensively on dynamic pools of redox-inactive metal ions such as sodium, potassium, calcium and zinc, but their redox-active transition metal counterparts such as copper and iron have been studied primarily as static enzyme cofactors. Here we report that copper is an endogenous regulator of lipolysis, the breakdown of fat, which is an essential process in maintaining body...
متن کاملCyclooxygenase 2-derived prostaglandin E2 regulates the angiogenic switch.
T he first evidence of a potential relationship between the cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) enzyme and human cancers was reported in 1994, when COX-2 mRNA levels were found to be markedly elevated in colorectal carcinomas (1). Several subsequent reports verified and extended these findings (2). COX-2 (prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase) converts arachidonic acid to bioactive lipids, including prostag...
