WHAT DOES LIPOLYSIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Lipolysis

Lipolysis /lɨˈpɒlɨsɪs/ is the breakdown of lipids and involves hydrolysis of triglycerides into glycerol and three fatty acids. The following hormones induce lipolysis: epinephrine, norepinephrine, ghrelin, growth hormone, testosterone, and cortisol. These trigger 7TM receptors, which activate adenylate cyclase. This results in increased production of cAMP, which activates protein kinase A, which subsequently activates lipases found in adipose tissue. Triglycerides are transported through the blood to appropriate tissues by lipoproteins such as VLDL. Triglycerides present on the VLDL undergo lipolysis by the cellular lipases of target tissues, which yields glycerol and free fatty acids. Free fatty acids released into the blood are then available for cellular uptake. Free fatty acids not immediately taken up by cells may bind to albumin for transport to surrounding tissues that require energy. Serum albumin is the major carrier of free fatty acids in the blood. The glycerol also enters the bloodstream and is absorbed by the liver or kidney where it is converted to glycerol 3-phosphate by the enzyme glycerol kinase.

Definition of lipolysis in the English dictionary

The definition of lipolysis in the dictionary is the hydrolysis of fats resulting in the production of carboxylic acids and glycerol.
