项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Triacylglycerols are a source of fatty acyl CoA and serve as stores of energy in organisms. They are mobilized during conditions of stress and high-energy activity for efficient energy production. Defects in mobilizing triacylglycerol results in several human disorders such as obesity, metabolic syndrome and is a complication of diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. The sphingolipid ceramide affects cellular energy metabolism by interfering with mitochondrial function. In a Drosophila model that accumulates ceramide, we investigated how it adapts to compromised energy levels and discovered AKT/FOXO regulated novel lipases that mobilize and integrate the use of triglycerides for energy consuming processes. Impairment of the function of these lipases leads to elevated triglycerides, increased sensitivity to starvation and cardiac dysfunction. Our data indicate the existence of a lipolytic pathway functioning across different organs that includes the two novel lipases and is active under both physiological and stress conditions. The goal of this proposal is to elucidate the mechanisitic details involved in the complex functioning of these lipases in physiological as well as pathological states that are associated with hypertriglyceridemia. The specific aims of this project are (1). Gain insight into the non-autonomous mode of action of CG8093 and CG6277 lipases (2). Identify components and pathways involved in the regulation of triglycerides by CG8093 and CG6277 through a genetic approach (3). Evaluate the role of CG8093 and G6277 lipases in hypertriglyceridemia associated with obesity and diabetes using Drosophila and mouse models. Upon completion of these aims, we hope to gain considerable insight into the mechanism of action of these lipases and their contribution to energy metabolism in physiological and stress conditions and identify components and pathways involved in the functioning of these lipases.

描述（由适用提供）：三酰基甘油是脂肪酰基COA的来源，并用作生物体中的能量储存。在压力和高能活性条件下，它们被动员起来，以进行有效的能源产生。动员三酰基甘油的缺陷导致几种人类疾病，例如肥胖，代谢综合征，是糖尿病和心血管疾病的并发症。鞘脂神经酰胺通过干扰线粒体功能来影响细胞能代谢。在积累神经酰胺的果蝇模型中，我们研究了它如何适应能量水平，并发现了Akt/foxo调节的新型脂肪酶，这些脂肪动员并整合了触发默瑟里德式用于能源消耗过程的使用。这些脂肪酶功能的损害会导致触发旋风升高，对饥饿和心脏功能障碍的敏感性提高。我们的数据表明，在包括两种新型脂肪酶的不同器官中起作用的脂解途径存在，并且在物理和应力条件下都是活跃的。该提案的目的是阐明这些脂肪酶在与高甘油三酯血症相关的物理和病理状态中复杂功能所涉及的机械系细节。该项目的具体目的是（1）。深入了解CG8093和CG6277脂肪酶的非自主作用方式（2）。通过遗传方法鉴定CG8093和CG6277调节甘油三酸酯涉及的组件和途径（3）。评估使用果蝇和小鼠模型评估CG8093和G6277脂肪酶在与肥胖和糖尿病相关的高甘油三酸酯血症中的作用。这些目标完成后，我们希望对这些脂肪酶的作用机理及其在身体和压力条件下对能量代谢的贡献进行考虑，并确定与这些脂肪酶功能相关的成分和途径。
