AI Article Synopsis

  • * Perilipin 1 inhibits the activation of lipase by stabilizing its coactivator, ABHD5, whereas perilipins 2 and 3 do this less efficiently, leading to differences in lipolysis regulation across tissues.
  • * Knockdown of perilipin 1 in adipocytes results in increased basal lipolysis and a switch to perilipin 2, highlighting that perilipin 1 is crucial

Article Abstract

Lipid droplets (LDs) are a conserved feature of most organisms. Vertebrate adipocytes have evolved to efficiently store and release lipids for the whole organism from a single droplet. Perilipin 1, the most abundant lipid-coat protein in adipocytes, plays a key role in regulating lipolysis. In other tissues such as liver and muscle, LDs serve very different biological functions, buffering surplus lipids for subsequent oxidation or export. These tissues express perilipins 2 or 3, rather than perilipin 1. We sought to understand the role of perilipins 2 and 3 in regulating basal lipolysis. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation studies suggested that whereas perilipin 1 prevents the activation of adipose tissue triacylglycerol lipase by its coactivator, AB-hydrolase domain containing-5 (ABHD5), perilipins 2 and 3 do so less effectively. These differences are mediated by a conserved region within the carboxy terminus of perilipin 1 that binds and stabilizes ABHD5 by retarding its degradation by the proteosome. Chimeric proteins generated by fusing the carboxy terminus of perilipin 1 to the amino terminus of perilipins 2 or 3 stabilize ABHD5 and suppress basal lipolysis more effectively than WT perilipins 2 or 3. Furthermore, knockdown of perilipin 1 in adipocytes leads to replacement of perilipin 2 on LDs. In these cells we observed reduced ABHD5 expression and LD localization and a corresponding increase in basal lipolysis. Collectively these data suggest that whereas perilipin 1 potently suppresses basal lipolysis in adipocytes, perilipins 2 and 3 facilitate higher rates of basal lipolysis in other tissues where constitutive traffic of fatty acids via LDs is a necessary step in their metabolism.

Obesity, characterized by excessive fat accumulation in white adipose tissue (WAT), is linked to numerous health issues, including insulin resistance (IR), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). The distribution of adipose tissue differs by sex, with men typically exhibiting android adiposity and pre-menopausal women displaying gynecoid adiposity. After menopause, women have an increased risk of developing android-type obesity, IR, and DM2.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explored how citrus peel extract (CPE) affects the rumen microbiota, energy metabolism, and milk production in dairy cows during the transition period around calving.
  • Dairy cows were divided into two groups: one received a standard diet while the other was given CPE for 6 weeks, with various samples collected to assess the impacts.
  • Results showed that CPE supplementation improved milk yield and quality, increased serum glucose levels, altered rumen microbial composition, decreased harmful metabolites, and enhanced insulin sensitivity in both adipose tissue and liver.

Periparturient dairy cows exhibit intense lipolysis driven by reduced dry matter intake, enhanced energy needs, and the loss of adipose tissue (AT) insulin sensitivity. Extended periods of low insulin sensitivity and negative energy balance induce lipolysis dysregulation, leading to increased disease susceptibility and poor lactation performance. Chromium (Cr) supplementation improves systemic insulin sensitivity, while palmitic acid (PA) increases energy availability for milk production.
