“…Indeed, the elevated triglyceride accumulation in ATGL À/À macrophages is accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis, ER stress, reduced macrophage migration, and decreased phagocytosis ability (Chandak et al, 2010;Aflaki et al, 2011aAflaki et al, , 2011bAflaki et al, , 2012, suggesting that proper macrophage function is dependent on the liberation of free fatty acids from intracellular triglyceride stores. The ATGL-mediated release of fatty acids is also necessary for the production of lipid mediators, at least in neutrophils (Schlager et al, 2015). Similar to ATGL À/À macrophages, macrophages deficient in the ATGL activator CGI-58 (also known as (C) Corrected TNF-a and IL-6 secretion of adipose tissue macrophages from Hilpda flox/flox and Hilpda DMF mice fed a HFD for 20 weeks (n = 10-12 per group, pooled per 3-4).…”
