Notes: Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a key enzyme regulating the mobilization of fatty acids from intracellular stores.{18756} There are three different isoforms of the enzyme: HSLadi, which is the predominant form found in adipocytes, HSLtes expressed in testes, and HSLb found in insulin secreting β-cells.{18755} The three isoforms are distinguished by their molecular masses.{18755} HSL catalyses the rate limiting step in the lipolysis of triacylglycerol, found in intracellular stores, to fatty acids.{18757} HSL also catalyzes the hydrolysis of mono- and diacylglycerides, as well as cholesterol esters.{13168}
