Both guanylin and uroguanylin trigger lipolysis in human visceral adipocytes. Given the lipolytic action of the guanylin system on visceral adipocytes, the herein reported decrease of circulating ...

Fasting induces lipolysis in adipocytes and gluconeogenesis in the liver. AQP7 mRNA levels are elevated by the decrease of insulin and adrenergic receptor activation causes the AQP7 protein to ...

When the body needs energy, the triglycerides stored in the adipocytes (fat cells) are broken down into free fatty acids and glycerol through a process called lipolysis. Beta-oxidation ...
