title: Inhibition of growth hormone-stimulated lipolysis by somatostatin, insulin, and insulin-like growth factors (somatomedins) in vitro.
abstract: The effects of somatostatin, insulin, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), and insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II)/MSA on growth hormone (GH) (1 microgram/ml)-induced lipolysis were examined employing chicken adipose tissue in vitro. Basal and GH-stimulated glycerol release were inhibited by somatostatin (1 ng/ml) and by IGF-II/MSA (10 and 100 ng/ml). Insulin and IGF-I (10 and 100 ng/ml) completely inhibited the lipolytic response to GH without affecting basal glycerol release. Insulin and IGF-I were equipotent in inhibiting GH-induced lipolysis while IGF-II is only 16% as potent as insulin.
