Objective: Emerging evidence suggest the existence of constant basal lipolysis and re-esterification of a substantial fraction of thus liberated fatty acids. In stimulated lipolysis, the re-esterification is proposed to be a protective mechanism against lipotoxicity; however, the role of the lipolys...
