In addition to sc and visceral fat deposits, muscle has been shown to contain relevant
amounts of lipids whose breakdown is subject to hormonal regulation. The aim of the …

Context Hypertriglyceridemia is a risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes (T2D) and might
contribute to its pathogenesis either directly or through elevation of nonesterified fatty acids …

1. Increased rates of fatty acid oxidation are frequently observed in patients with non-insulin-
dependent diabetes mellitus and may contribute to hyperglycaemia by both decreasing …

Adipose tissue lipolysis is the catabolic process leading to the breakdown of triglycerides
stored in fat cells and the release of fatty acids and glycerol. Recent work has revealed that …

The aim of this study was to evaluate in premenopausal women (six endurance-trained
nonobese, six sedentary nonobese, and five sedentary obese) the suppression of whole …

Objective To evaluate early defects in glucose production, lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation
in non-obese, normally glucose tolerant women, who are nevertheless at risk of type 2 …

Objective—Fatty acids released via fat cell lipolysis can affect circulating lipid levels.
However, the contribution of different lipolysis measures in adipose tissue is unknown and …

In humans, lipolysis and the resulting release of free fatty acids (FFAs) and glycerol from
stored triglycerides is of fundamental metabolic importance [1]. Insulin is the most potent …

Objective Growth hormone (GH) stimulates lipolysis, but the underlying mechanisms remain
incompletely understood. We examined the effect of GH on the expression of lipolytic …

Background Elevated levels of circulating non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) mediate many
adverse metabolic effects. In this work we aim to determine the impact of type 2 diabetes …
