We have determined the effect of various rates of glucose infusion on the rates of release of
glycerol (Ra glycerol), free fatty acids (Ra FFA), and on energy metabolism in normal human …

Triacylglycerol (TAG) stored in adipose tissue can be rapidly mobilized by the hydrolytic
action of lipases, with the release of fatty acids (FA) that are used by other tissues during …

To compare the ability of insulin to regulate lipolysis in lean and obese subjects, free fatty
acid (FFA) suppression was compared in groups of six lean [body mass index, 25.7±1.1 …

Obesity is a major health problem in the western world and its frequency is steadily
increasing. Although overeating and physical inactivity are probably the major causes of …

We have shown that insulin controls endogenous glucose production (EGP) indirectly, via
suppression of adipocyte lipolysis. Free fatty acids (FFA) and EGP are suppressed …

To compare the dose-response characteristics for suppression of lipolysis and suppression
of glucose production by insulin, 13 normal nonobese individuals were infused with insulin …

The role of insulin in the regulation of adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase activity in humans
was investigated in 11 normal subjects and compared with the effects of 0.9% saline …

Because increases in adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase (ATLPL) may be important in the
pathogenesis of obesity, the response of ATLPL to insulin during maintenance of …

Eight normal-weight subjects (four men, four women) were studied to determine the relative
activities of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) in adipose tissue (ATLPL) and vastus lateralis skeletal …

These studies were designed to determine whether the insulin resistance of fasting extends
to its antilipolytic effects and whether fasting enhances the lipolytic effects of adrenergic …
