Relationships between lipolysis induced by various lipolytic agents and hormone-sensitive lipase in rat fat cells

Norepinephrine induced lipolysis in rat fat cells, in vitro, in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, without concomitantly increasing hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) activity. It also induced, time and concentration dependently, HSL translocation from the cytosol to the lipid droplets in fat c...

description Norepinephrine induced lipolysis in rat fat cells, in vitro, in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, without concomitantly increasing hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) activity. It also induced, time and concentration dependently, HSL translocation from the cytosol to the lipid droplets in fat cells. Isoproterenol, forskolin, dibutyryl cyclic AMP, and theophylline also induced lipolysis in fat cells, but did not stimulate HSL activity. These agents also induced HSL translocation from the cytosol to the lipid droplets in fat cells: about 80% to 90% of all HSL was located in lipid droplets after incubation for 1 h. These results suggest that the critical event in lipolytic activation of fat cells induced by lipolytic agents is not an increase in the catalytic activity of HSL but translocation of HSL to its substrate on the surfaces of lipid droplets in fat cells.—Morimoto, C., K. Kameda, T. Tsujita, and H. Okuda. Relationships between lipolysis induced by various lipolytic agents and hormone-sensitive lipase in rat fat cells. J. Lipid Res. 2001. 42: 120–127.
