“…LPL catalyzes the hydrolysis of TG contained in very-low-density lipoproteins and chylomicrons, leading to the release of free fatty acids and their subsequent uptake by myocytes for energy production or by adipocytes for reesterification and storage [45]. Also, LPL activators have been shown to have antiobesity properties [46]. In our study, a significant decrease in the expression levels of muscle LPL was observed in high-fat-diet-fed rats.…”

“…Up-regulation of UCP expression depends on the strain and tissue type. A high fat diet increased UCP3 mRNA expression in the skeletal muscle of C57BL/6J mice [15] and rats [24] but increased UCP2 expression only slightly in white adipose tissue of AKR mice and not at all in C57BL/6J mice [15] or in rats [24].…”

“…In another study of adipose LPL and obesity, leptin‐deficient (ob/ob) mice lacking adipose LPL but expressing skeletal muscle LPL demonstrated reduced weight and fat mass compared to ob/ob mice which did not lack LPL, although the apparent resistance to obesity conferred by adipose LPL knockout was not observed in non‐ob/ob mice (29). Animal studies demonstrating that the LPL activator NO‐1886 (ibrolipim) is associated with decreased fat accumulation and increased uncoupling protein 3 mRNA in high fat–induced obese animals suggest a role for LPL in energy balance, possibly through stimulation of increased fatty acid oxidation by skeletal muscle (30).…”
