To further investigate the role of lipid catabolism in fasting-induced longevity, we examined two key regulators: Adipose Triglyceride Lipase-1 (ATGL-1), which initiates lipolysis, and Carnitine Palmitoyl Transferase-2 (CPT-2), which catalyzes carnitine removal and Coenzyme A conjugation to the fatty acid within the mitochondrial matrix 43,44
