Hormone-Sensitive Lipase

Hormone-sensitive lipases (HSL) represent a class of esterases within the hydrolase family that catalyzes the cleavage of ester bonds in fatty acid molecules when stimulated by a hormone. The activation and mobilization of these hormone-sensitive lipases can be triggered by various catecholamines and inhibited by insulin. HSL is clinically relevant because the mobilization of fats in cells is directly related to fat accumulation seen in atherosclerosis, diabetes, and obesity. Investigation of HSL's structure and function could provide a better clinical understanding of these diseases. [1]

Briefly, binding of catecholamines to β-adrenergic receptors coupled with adenylate cyclase (AC) stimulates G-proteins to increase the levels of cystolic cAMP. Elevated levels of cAMP leads to an activation protein kinase A (PKA) leading to phosphorylation of serine residues on HSL activating and translocating HSL to lipid droplets for lipolysis. Conversely, insulin signaling decreases cystolic cAMP levels, resulting in a decreased HSL mobilization. [2]
