TAG synthesis and levels of PUFA-TAGs were lowered by the diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT)1 inhibitor, T863. The lipase inhibitor, Atglistatin, increased the levels of TAG in both WT and ATGL-deficient mouse Hepatic stellate cell (HSC). Both Atglistatin and T863 inhibited the induction of activation marker, alpha-smooth muscle actin, in rat HSCs, but not in mouse HSCs. | ATGL and DGAT1 are involved in the turnover of newly synthesized triacylglycerols in hepatic stellate cells.
