Effect of cell size on lipolysis and antilipolytic action of insulin in human fat cells

The lipolytic response to catecholamines and the antilipolytic effect of insulin were studied as a function of adipose cell size and number. The results show that cellular enlargement is associated with an increase in the basal lipolysis as well as the release of glycerol induced by salbutamol (a β2...
