Lipase Enzyme
& Lipolysis, Important To Breakdown Fats!
The
lipase enzyme is a naturally occurring enzyme found
in the stomach and pancreatic juice, which is also found
within fats in the foods that we eat. Lipase enzyme
digests fats and lipids, helping to maintain correct
gall bladder function. As such, these constitute any
of the fat-splitting or lipolytic enzymes, all of which
cleave a fatty acid residue from the glycerol residue
in a neutral fat or a phospholipid. The lipase enzyme
controls the amount of fat being synthesized and that
which is burned in the body, reducing adipose tissue
(fat stores).
The lipase enzyme belongs to the esterases family of
proteins. The lipase enzyme is found widely distributed
in the plant world (beans and legumes), as well as in
molds, bacteria, milk and milk products, and in animal
tissues, especially in the pancreas. In sufficient quantities
of lipase enzyme production, lipase can help use fat-stores
to be burned as fuel. Indeed, lipase is a rate-determining
enzyme, which not only activates the burning of stored
body fats but also effectively inhibits fatty acid synthesis,
or fat storage!
Hormone-Sensitive Triacyclglycerol Lipase, as it is
also known, actually stimulates lipolysis in fat tissues,
safely raising blood fatty acid levels, which ultimately
activates the beta-oxidation pathway in other tissues,
such as liver and muscle. In the liver, lipolysis leads
to the production of ketone bodies that are secreted
into the bloodstream for use as an alternative fuel
to glucose by peripheral tissues. Lipase enzymes contain
sulfhydryl groups (SH) and are activated by substances
that keep SH groups in the reduced state, such as, ascorbic
acid or Vitamin C and L-Glutathione and L-Cysteine.
The lipase enzyme is rather unique in that it selectively
helps in the breakdown of fats but without damaging
the fat-soluble vitamins or unsaturated omega-3, 6 fatty
acids like Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Docosahexaenoic
Acid (DHA), and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA).
