Lipase (triasilglycerol acylhydrolase, E.C, 3.1.1.3) is an enzyme can hydrolyze long chains of triglycerides[1]. a water-soluble and naturally lipase catalyze the hydrolysis ester bonds in water insoluble lipid substrate long-chain acylglycerol synthesis, diacylglycerol, monoacylglycerol, glycerol[2]. Hydrolase be used potentialy produced fatty acid which precursors chemical industry[3]. The re...

The rat liver secretes very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) containing either apoB-100 or apoB-48. After oral fat intake, chylomicrons containing apoB-48 and endogenously synthesized VLDL are mixed in the blood and the triglyceride clearance from these triglyceride-rich lipoprotein species compete for the same lipolytic pathway, i.e., lipoprotein lipase. A situation mimicking alimentary lipemia...

The biphasic nature of the lipolytic dose-response curve of epinephrine in fat cells from "young" rats (40-45 days) was confirmed. The first phase (Lipolysis I) occurred at concentrations of from 10(-7) m to 3 x 10(-6) m. The second phase (Lipolysis II) occurred at concentrations of from 10(-5) m to 3 x 10(-4) m. Insulin (0.1 mU/ml) abolished Lipolysis I and slightly augmented Lipolysis II. Hig...

Lipases are of great interest for different industrial applications due to their diversity and versatility. Among different lipases, microbial lipases are preferable due to their broad substrate specificity, and higher stability with lower production costs compared to the lipases from plants and animals. In the past, a vast number of bacterial species have been reported as potential lipases pro...

Ractopamine HCl is an β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) ligand that was recently approved for use in swine to enhance carcass leanness. The RR stereoisomer of ractopamine is the most active of the four stereoisomers exhibiting the highest affinity and signaling response. The RR isomer exhibits selective activation of the porcine β2AR, which might limit the lipolytic response to ractopamine because th...

We studied eight normal-weight male subjects to examine whether the lipolytic rate of deep subcutaneous and preperitoneal adipose tissues differs from that of superficial abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue. The lipolytic rates in the superficial anterior and deep posterior subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissues and in the preperitoneal adipose tissue in the round ligament were measured by mi...
