Background: OXPAT

OXPAT (PLIN5/Perilipin 5) is a novel PAT-1 (Perilipin, ADRP and TIP47) that binds to lipid droplets (LDs) and protects them from lipolytic degradation. The tissue distribution of PAT-1 proteins differs considerably, however, all of them are involved in accumulation and metabolism of lipids in LDs. OXPAT covers LDs in the cytosol and its expression is highest in tissues with a high fat-oxidative capacity, such as heart, oxidative (type I) skeletal muscles and brown adipose tissue wherein the OXPAT contents parallel the LD content. OXPAT overexpression in OP-9 and COS-7 cells increased cellular triglyceride storage in parallel with increases in fatty acid oxidation and induction of gene expression of mitochondrial enzymes involved in oxidative metabolism. OXPAT has the potential of modulating the interaction of the major triacylglycerol lipase ATGL with LD as well as with its co-factor CGI-58 in a well control manner to regulate LD lipolysis. OXPAT expression is up-regulated by PPARalpha, and this regulation appears to be part of an expression program that shifts the metabolism of cells from fatty acid storage to oxidation.
