The breakdown of cellular fat stores fuels energy production and multiple anabolic processes. Albert et al. (2014) demonstrate that the lack of hormone-sensitive lipase, a member of the enzyme trio that catabolizes fat, has pronounced effects on lipid metabolism, glucose homeostasis, and cell signaling in humans.

Adipocyte lipolysis controls systemic energy levels and metabolic homeostasis. Lipolysis is regulated by posttranslational modifications of key lipolytic enzymes. However, less is known about the transcriptional mechanisms that regulate lipolysis.

Prolactin (PRL) has recently been found to play a role in lipid metabolism in addition to its traditional roles in lactation and reproduction. However, the effects of PRL on lipid metabolism in liver and adipose tissues are unclear. Therefore, we aimed to study the role of PRL on lipid metabolism in goats.

High temperatures cause abnormal energy metabolism and inhibit the growth of fish in aquaculture. However, the mechanism of energy metabolism under chronic heat stress is still unknown. In this study, largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides, LMB) was treated with 25℃, 29℃, and 33℃ for 8 weeks.

Adipocytic lipolysis is strongly related to the increase of visceral fat, decrease of exercise capacity, and various other metabolic syndromes during aging. It is significantly influenced by the paracrine relationship between adipocytes and the adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs), and the cytokines secreted by ATMs have endocrine effects on adjacent tissues. We previously reported that the total saponins from Panax japonicus (TSPJs) can enhance lipid metabolism.

The expression of BDNF in both neuronal and non-neuronal cells is influenced by various stimuli, including prenatal developmental factors and postnatal conditions such as estrogens, dietary habits, and lifestyle factors like obesity, blood pressure, and aging. Central BDNF plays a crucial role in modulating how target tissues respond to these stimuli, influencing the pathogenesis of hypertension, mitigating obesity, and protecting neurons from aging. Thus, BDNF serves as a dynamic mediator of environmental influences, reflecting an individual's unique history of exposure.
