Abstract
Infusion of 0.01 /[mu]g/lb./min. of epinephrine to normal and obese women produced a nearly identical rise in plasma non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) levels of each group. This suggests that obese subjects have no impairment in the ability of depot fat to release NEFA in response to epinephrine.Keywords
