Triacylglycerol (TAG) is the primary unit of energy storage in eukaryotic cells. TAG comprises
more than 90% of the content of white adipocytes, and TAG synthesis is essential in …

During the post-prandial phase, intestinal triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) ie chylomicrons
are the main contributors to the serum lipid level, which is linked to coronary artery diseases …

Members of the perilipin family of lipid droplet scaffold proteins are thought to play important
roles in tissue-specific regulation of triglyceride metabolism, but the mechanisms involved …

Comparative gene identification-58 (CGI-58), also designated as α/β-hydrolase domain
containing-5 (ABHD-5), is a lipid droplet-associated protein that activates adipose …

Mutations of Comparative Gene Identification-58 (CGI-58) in humans cause triglyceride (TG)
accumulation in multiple tissues. Mice genetically lacking CGI-58 die shortly after birth due …

Recently, we have shown that coexpression of hMet and mutant‐β‐catenin using slee**
