Mus musculus | RNAi against lipin 2 markedly reduces PAP-1 activity in hepatocytes from both wild-type and fld mice and suppresses triglyceride synthesis under conditions of high fatty acid availability | down |
Mus musculus | lipin 2 protein content is increased in fld liver independent of changes in steady-state Lpin2 mRNA levels. Lipin 2 is dynamically regulated in liver but is not a target gene of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorgamma-coactivator 1alpha | additional information |
Mus musculus | both lipin 2 mRNA and protein expression are significantly induced by food deprivation. Lipin 2 knockdown leads to a compensatory increase in Lpin3 mRNA expression, especially in fld hepatocytes | up |
General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
malfunction | lipin 1 deficiency does not affect PAP-1 activity in neonatal mice and leads to hepatic triglyceride accumulation. Loss of lipin 2 markedly impairs hepatocyte PAP-1 activity but does not affect basal rates of triglyceride synthesis. Lipin 2 knockdown abrogates triglyceride synthesis under conditions of increased fatty acid availability | Mus musculus |
physiological function | lipin 2 plays an important role as a hepatic PAP-1 enzyme. Lipin 2 overexpression increases PAP-1 activity in HepG2 cells. Increased hepatic expression of lipin 2 plays a role in increased hepatic triglyceride synthesis rates in ob/ob mice | Mus musculus |
