Sensitivity of freshly isolated ovine adipocytes to inhibition of lipolysis by insulin.
1. Ovine adipocytes were isolated in the presence of adenosine to minimize cell damage and were incubated at a low cell concentration. 2. Insulin sensitivity of lipid metabolism was retained. 3. Insulin inhibited basal lipolysis by 61% and isoproterenol- and adenosine deaminase-stimulated lipolysis by 84%. 4. Insulin increased glucose conversion to cell lipid by 3-fold.
