Evidence against the involvement of cyclic GMP in the insulin-stimulation of lipoprotein lipase activity in fat cells.
Under in vitro experimental conditions in which insulin increases adipose tissue lipoprotein lipase, cyclic GMP or dibutyryl cyclic GMP has no effect on this enzyme in rat adipose tissue fragments, or on either the intra- or extracellular forms of this enzyme in isolated fat cells. These results do not support the involvement of cyclic GMP in the insulin-stimulation of lipoprotein lipase in adipose tissue.
