Isolated fat cells from young New Zealand obese mice (NZO/Bl) showed an impaired rate of glycerol release in response to isoprenaline. Old animals showed an increased rate of glycerol release.
The impaired lipolysis in young animals may be caused by failure of the adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate level to rise normally when isolated fat cells are treated with isoprenaline. It is proposed that the impaired lipolysis in young NZO/Bl mice is important in the development of obesity.
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
