basic FUNCTION
| hydrolyzing stored triglycerides to free fatty acids |
|
esterase and lipase, which are essential for spermatogenesis |
|
playing an important role in regulating catecholamine-induced lipolysis |
|
one of the mechanisms by which LIPE modulates adipose metabolism is potentially by providing intrinsic ligands or pro-ligands for PPARG |
|
in adipose tissue, plays an important role in catecholamine-stimulated hydrolysis of stored lipids, thus mobilizing fatty acids |
|
importance of LIPE for normal lipid metabolism in response to a high fat diet |
|
triacylglycerol hydrolase and cholesterol esterase that is essential for male fertility |
