The resulting high tissue concentrations of cAMP activate a fat-breakdown hormone called hormone-sensitive lipase, which promotes lipolysis.
Lipolytic hormones activate adenylate cyclase, resulting in increased synthesis of cAMP, leading to activation of cAMP-dependant protein kinase and activation of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), so named because of its responsiveness to insulin and catecholamines (Steinberg and Khoo, 1977).
s energy supply also decreases due to the fact that cAMP activates protein Kinase A which phosphorylates(making something active) hormone-sensitive lipase.
