Non-canonical lysosomal lipolysis drives mobilization of adipose tissue energy stores with fasting by GV Naveen Kumar, Rui-Sheng Wang, Ankit X. Sharma, Natalie L. David, Tânia Amorim, Daniel S. Sinden, Nandini K. Doshi, Martin Wabitsch, Sebastien Gingras, Asim Ejaz, J. Peter Rubin, Bradley A. Maron, Pouneh K. Fazeli, Matthew L. Steinhauser

“…Abstract Physiological adaptations to fasting enable humans to survive for prolonged periods without food and involve molecular pathways that may drive life-prolonging effects of dietary restriction in model organisms. Mobilization of fatty acids and glycerol from adipocyte lipid stores by canonical neutral lipases, including the rate limiting adipose triglyceride lipase (Pnpla2/ATGL), is critical to the adaptive fasting response. …”

Caloric restriction and its mimetics in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: mechanisms and therapeutic potential by Alexander Fuerlinger, Alina Stockner, Simon Sedej, Mahmoud Abdellatif

“…Conversely, weight loss strategies, particularly caloric restriction, have shown promise in improving health status in patients with HFpEF and are considered the gold standard for promoting longevity and healthspan (disease-free lifetime) in model organisms. In this review, we implicate fundamental mechanisms of aging in driving HFpEF and elucidate how caloric restriction mitigates the disease progression. …”
