The relationship between isoproterenol-induced lipolysis and the phosphorylation of perilipin and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) was examined using cell-free systems consisting of lipid droplets isolated from rat fat cells and HSL, and/or trioleoylglycerol emulsified with gum arabic and HSL. Isoproterenol was found to stimulate lipolysis in the cell-free system with the lipid droplets without an increase in the phosphorylation of either perilipin or HSL. On the other hand, no stimulation of lipolysis was found in the cell-free system containing lipid droplets despite increases in the phosphorylation of perilipin and HSL. In the cell-free system consisting of trioleoylglycerol emulsified with gum arabic and HSL, neither isoproterenol nor increases in the phosphorylation of perilipin and HSL accelerated lipolysis. These results suggest that isoproterenol-induced lipolysis may not be mediated through the phosphorylation of perilipin and HSL, and may rather be dependent on the substrate of HSL.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007545	Isoproterenol	Isopropyl analog of EPINEPHRINE; beta-sympathomimetic that acts on the heart, bronchi, skeletal muscle, alimentary tract, etc. It is used mainly as bronchodilator and heart stimulant.

D008066	Lipolysis	The metabolic process of breaking down LIPIDS to release FREE FATTY ACIDS, the major oxidative fuel for the body. Lipolysis may involve dietary lipids in the DIGESTIVE TRACT, circulating lipids in the BLOOD, and stored lipids in the ADIPOSE TISSUE or the LIVER. A number of enzymes are involved in such lipid hydrolysis, such as LIPASE and LIPOPROTEIN LIPASE from various tissues.	Lipolyses
D008297	Male		Males
D010750	Phosphoproteins		Phosphoprotein
D010766	Phosphorylation	The introduction of a phosphoryl group into a compound through the formation of an ester bond between the compound and a phosphorus moiety.	Phosphorylations
D002352	Carrier Proteins	Proteins that bind or transport specific substances in the blood, within the cell, or across cell membranes.	Binding Proteins,Carrier Protein,Transport Protein,Transport Proteins,Binding Protein,Protein, Carrier,Proteins, Carrier
D002474	Cell-Free System	A fractionated cell extract that maintains a biological function. A subcellular fraction isolated by ultracentrifugation or other separation techniques must first be isolated so that a process can be studied free from all of the complex side reactions that occur in a cell. The cell-free system is therefore widely used in cell biology.

D000070778	Perilipin-1	A lipid droplet protein that is expressed primarily by ADIPOCYTES of WHITE ADIPOSE TISSUE and BROWN ADIPOSE TISSUE. It co-localizes with MACROPHAGES and FOAM CELLS of artherosclerotic lesions and stabilizes LIPID DROPLETS by inhibiting HORMONE SENSITIVE LIPASE. It may also protect TRIGLYCERIDES against hydrolysis within the PLASMA MEMBRANE and modulate CHOLESTEROL ESTER HYDROLASE activity.
