Constitutive P2Y2 receptor activity regulates basal lipolysis in human adipocytes
17 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT White adipocytes are key regulators of metabolic homeostasis, which release stored energy as free fatty acids via lipolysis. Adipocytes possess both basal and stimulated lipolytic capacity, but limited information exists regarding the molecular mechanisms that regulate basal lipolysis. Here, we describe a mechanism whereby autocrine purinergic signalling and constitutive P2Y2 receptor activation...
