No effect of long-term DHEA treatment on either hepatocyte and adipocyte pentose pathway activity or adipocyte glycerol release.
The effects of long-term dehydroepiandrosterone treatment on the pentose shunt in adipocytes and hepatocytes from female lean Zucker rats were determined. No significant effects could be attributed to this treatment. There was also no effect on basal or epinephrine-stimulated glycerol release from adipocytes.
