Resistance to the antilipolytic effect of insulin in adipocytes of African-American compared to Caucasian postmenopausal women

Resistance to the antilipolytic effect of insulin in adipocytes of African-American compared to Caucasian postmenopausal women

High fatty acid (FA) flux is associated with systemic insulin resistance, and African-American (AA) women tend to be more insulin resistant. We assessed possible depot and race difference in the antilipolytic effect of insulin in adipocytes isolated from abdominal (Abd) and gluteal (Glt) subcutaneou...
