Estrogen hormones and lipid metabolism. Effect of ethynyl-estradiol on liver lipases. 1977

A Valette, and A Vérine, and P Salers, and J Boyer

Lipase activities assayed in liver subcellular fractions from rats given ethynyl-estradiol are lowered, while triglycerides increase and cholesterol decreases in blood. Triester lipase in microsomes is the most altered activity. Such enzymatic changes might play a role in the development of lipid abnormalities in blood of women taking estrogens as oral contraceptives.

D008049 Lipase An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. It is produced by glands on the tongue and by the pancreas and initiates the digestion of dietary fats. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.1.1.3.
