Preferential lipolysis of DGAT1 over DGAT2 generated triacylglycerol in Huh7 hepatocytes

R. Selvaraj, S. V. Zehnder, R. Watts, J. Lian, R. Nelson, R. Lehner

The paper investigates the preferential lipolysis of triacylglycerol (TG) generated by DGAT1 versus DGAT2 in Huh7 hepatocytes, finding that DGAT1-TG is preferentially targeted for fatty acid oxidation.
