Adipose tissue lipolysis is the catabolic process leading to the breakdown of triglycerides
stored in fat cells and the release of fatty acids and glycerol. Recent work has revealed that …

The perception that intracellular lipolysis is a straightforward process that releases fatty
acids from fat stores in adipose tissue to generate energy has experienced major revisions …

Lipolysis is defined as the catabolism of triacylglycerols stored in cellular lipid droplets.
