Facts about N-acyl-phosphatidylethanolamine-hydrolyzing phospholipase D.
As a regulator of lipid metabolism in the adipose tissue, mediates the crosstalk between adipocytes, gut microbiota and immune cells to control body weight and temperature. Specifically, regulates energy homeostasis by promoting cold-induced brown or beige adipocyte differentiation program to generate heat from fatty acids and glucose (By similarity).
