Hormone-Induced Lipolysis and The Metabolic Pathways Providing Energy To The Cell: A Possible Role of Atp As a Rate-Limiting Factor

  • Chapter
Lipids, Lipoproteins, and Drugs

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 63))

Abstract

The primary purpose of free fatty acid mobilization from adipose tissue stores, is in the provision of caloric substrate to peripheral tissues. Under this light, hormone-sensitive lipolysis represents a fine regulatory mechanism, rapidly responsive to the most variable conditions and necessities, in accordance with the function of this highly specialized tissue (“Adipose Tissue”, 1970; Bjorntorp and Ostman, 1971).
