Antilipolytic actions of insulin on basal and hormone-induced lipolysis in rat adipocytes

The levels of insulin, free fatty acids (FFA), and triglycerides in rat sera increase with age. The increase in serum FFA levels accompanied the stimulation of basal lipolysis (i.e., lipolysis in the absence of lipolytic agents) in fat cells and enlargement of the diameter of the cells. An overnight...
