Abstract
Lipid micelles were prepared by incubating a mixture of glycerides (triolein, diolein, and monoolein), and lecithin in Krebs-Ringer phosphate buffer at 37°C for 30 mm. It was found that adrenaline stimulated the release of free fatty acids in a lipolytic system consisting of the lipid micelles and adipose tissue lipase. Adrenaline did not increase the cyclic AMP content of the reaction mixture. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP, theophylline, and phospholipase C increased the rate of lipolysis in the system but cyclic AMP and phospholipase D did not.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
