Target type: biologicalprocess
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of acylglycerol, any mono-, di- or triester of glycerol with (one or more) fatty acids. [GOC:ai]
Acylglycerol catabolic process is the breakdown of acylglycerols, which are lipids composed of glycerol and fatty acids. This process is essential for energy production and the recycling of fatty acids. The process begins with the hydrolysis of acylglycerols, catalyzed by lipases, to produce glycerol and free fatty acids. Glycerol can then be used in various metabolic pathways, including glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, to generate ATP. Free fatty acids can be oxidized through beta-oxidation to produce acetyl-CoA, which enters the citric acid cycle for further energy production. Acylglycerol catabolism also plays a crucial role in lipid homeostasis. When the body has excess energy, it stores it as triglycerides, which are acylglycerols containing three fatty acids. During periods of fasting or exercise, triglycerides are broken down to provide energy. Acylglycerol catabolism is also important for the synthesis of various bioactive molecules, such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes, which play roles in inflammation, blood clotting, and immune responses.'
