Cytosolic lipolysis in non-adipose tissues: energy provision and beyond.
2021
Cytosolic lipolysis is a well-defined biochemical process that plays important roles in the mobilization of stored neutral lipids. Lipid turnover, regulated by cytosolic lipolysis, has been extensively studied in adipose tissue, liver, and muscle. The storage and utilization of neutral lipids is a basic function of most, if not all, tissues and cells. In this review, we focus on the functions of cytosolic lipolysis mainly in non-adipose tissues and in several physiological processes, including cancer, longevity, and pathogen infection. The mechanisms underlying the impact of cytosolic lipolysis on these events will be discussed. Detailed understanding of cytosolic lipolysis in both adipose and non-adipose tissues will have implications for future clinical translation.
