The role of adipose triglyceride lipase in lipid and glucose homeostasis: lessons from transgenic mice

Abstract The ability of mammals to store and draw on fat reserves has been a driving force throughout evolution in an environment with intermittent nutrient availability. The discovery of adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) as a triglyceride lipase provided a heightened understanding of the mechanism...
