1. Rates of lipolysis were measured at different concentrations of glucagon in adipocytes prepared from parametrial adipose tissue of fed or starved rats in different reproductive states. All experiments were performed in the presence of a high concentration of adenosine deaminase (1 unit/ml). 2. Maximal rates of lipolysis (elicited by 25 nM-glucagon in each instance) were higher in adipocytes from peak-lactating rats than those from pregnant animals in both the fed and starved states. 3. Of adipocytes from fed animals, those from peak-lactating rats were the most sensitive to glucagon, whereas those from late-pregnant and early-lactating rats were 1-2 orders of magnitude less sensitive. 4. Adipocytes from 24 h-starved rats showed a much smaller stimulation of lipolysis by glucagon, making the assessment of sensitivity difficult. Therefore, rates of lipolysis were also measured in the presence of a maximally anti-lipolytic dose of insulin. The presence of insulin did not alter the relative sensitivities to glucagon of adipocytes from fed animals in different reproductive states, although all dose-response curves were shifted to the right. When lipolysis in adipocytes from starved animals was measured in the presence of insulin, it became evident that starvation for 24 h markedly increased the sensitivity of adipocytes from late-pregnant rats to glucagon, but did not affect that of cells from animals in the other reproductive states. 5. It is concluded that the large changes in sensitivity to glucagon that occurred during the reproductive cycle may enable the modulation of adipose-tissue lipolysis in vivo to satisfy the different metabolic requirements of the animal in the transition from pregnancy to peak lactation.

Lipolytic activity of fish (Hoplias malabaricus), toad (Bufo paracnemis), and snake (Philodryas patagoniensis) adipose tissue was investigated in vivo and in vitro. Catecholamines or glucagon did not affect the release of free fatty acids (FFA) by incubated fish and toad adipose tissue. Catecholamines also failed to activate snake adipose tissue lipolysis, which even decreased in the presence of epinephrine. However, glucagon stimulated both the lipolytic activity of reptilian tissue in vitro and the mobilization of FFA to plasma when administered to snakes in vivo. The release of FFA from incubated fish, amphibian, and reptilian adipose tissue increased markedly in the presence of cAMP or xanthine derivatives, inhibitors of phosphodiesterase. Forskolin or fluoride, activators of specific components of the adenylate cyclase system, strongly stimulated toad adipose tissue lipolysis. The data suggest that adipocyte triacylglycerol lipase of ectotherm vertebrates is activated by a cAMP-mediated phosphorylation and that the organization of the membrane-bound adenylate cyclase system is similar to that of mammals.

Stimulation Of

To investigate the cellular mechanisms of somatotropin (ST) action on adipose tissue lipolysis, experiments were conducted using adipose tissue taken from lactating cows treated with excipient or ST (40 mg/day). Stimulation of lipolysis in vitro by the effectors isoproterenol with or without adenosine deaminase, dibutyryl cAMP with or without isobutylmethylxanthine, and forskolin was not altered by ST treatment. Conversely, the response to the antilipolytic effector, phenylisopropyladenosine (PIA), was significantly reduced in adipose tissue explants from ST or fasted cows. The different responses to adrenergic-stimulating agents (in vivo) and PIA (in vitro) were not due to differences in the abundance of α, β or γ subunits of the stimulatory (Gs) and inhibitory (Gi) subunits of the heterotrimeric G-proteins which bind to the β-adrenergic and adenosine receptors respectively. However, the functionality of Gi proteins, as assessed by their ability to be ADP-ribosylated by pertussis toxin, was significantly reduced in ST-treated but not fasted cows. These data highlight differential regulation of signaling proteins by ST and fasting, both of which result in enhanced in vivo response to adrenergic stimulation of lipolysis.

Adipose Tissue Lipolysis

The cloning of two novel fatty acid (FA) transport proteins, FA transport protein (FATP) and FA translocase (FAT), has recently been reported; however, little is known about their in vivo regulation. Endotoxin [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)], tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and interleukin-1 (IL-1) stimulate adipose tissue lipolysis and enhance hepatic lipogenesis and reesterification while suppressing FA oxidation in multiple tissues. Hence, in this study we examined their effects on FATP and FAT mRNA levels in Syrian hamsters. Our results demonstrate that LPS decreased FATP and FAT mRNA expression in adipose tissue, heart, skeletal muscle, brain, spleen, and kidney, tissues in which FA uptake and/or oxidation is decreased during sepsis. In the liver, where FA oxidation is decreased during sepsis but the uptake of peripherally derived FA is increased to support reesterifiation, LPS decreased FATP mRNA expression by 70–80% but increased FAT mRNA levels by four- to fivefold. The effects of LPS on FATP and FAT mRNA levels in liver were observed as early as 4 h after administration and were maximal by 16 h. TNF and IL-1 mimicked the effect of LPS on FATP and FAT mRNA levels in both liver and adipose tissue. These results indicate that the mRNAs for both transport proteins are downregulated by LPS in tissues in which FA uptake and/or oxidation are decreased during sepsis. On the other hand, differential regulation of FATP and FAT mRNA in liver raises the possibility that these proteins may be involved in transporting FA to different locations inside the cell. FATP may transport FA toward mitochondria for oxidation, which is decreased in sepsis, whereas FAT may transport FA to cytosol for reesterification, which is enhanced in sepsis.

A pig model in vivo was used to confirm the unique specificity for stimulation of porcine adipose tissue lipolysis by norepinephrine analogues in vitro. Plasma free fatty acid and blood glycerol concentrations were monitored as probable indicators of adipose tissue lipolysis. Plasma glucose and lactate concentrations, blood pressure, and heart rate were monitored also. Norepinephrine analogues were infused intravenously. Several compounds, classified as either beta 1- or beta 2-adrenergic agonists, that stimulated lipolysis in vitro also increased plasma free fatty acid and blood glycerol concentrations in vivo. Tazolol (beta 1) and quinterenol (beta 2) did not stimulate lipolysis in vitro and likewise did not elevate plasma free fatty acid or blood glycerol concentrations in vivo. Clenbuterol and zinterol did not stimulate lipolysis in vitro but elevated plasma free fatty acid concentrations in vivo, implying indirect effects. Isoproterenol stimulation of plasma free fatty acid and blood glycerol concentrations in vivo was antagonized by propranolol, implying the beta-adrenergic nature of the receptors. Infusion of purported beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic antagonists suggested control of lipolysis in vivo predominantly by beta 1-adrenergic receptors; however, because the results in vitro do not indicate this specificity, differential pharmacodynamics of the antagonists are suggested rather than designation of receptor subtypes. There was no evidence for alpha-adrenergic mediated inhibition of adipose tissue lipolysis in vivo, confirming observations in vitro.

Subcutaneous adipose tissue lipolysis was studied in vivo by Fick's arteriovenous (a-v) principle using either calculated (microdialysis) or directly measured (catheterization) adipose tissue venous glycerol concentration. We compared results during steady-state (rest and prolonged continuous exercise), as well as during non-steady-state (onset of exercise and early exercise) experimental settings. Fourteen healthy women [age: 74 ± 1 (SE) yr] were studied at rest and during 60-min continuous bicycling at 60% of peak O2 uptake. Calculated and measured subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue venous glycerol concentrations increased substantially from rest to exercise but were similar both at rest and during later stages of exercise. In contrast, during the initial ∼40 min of exercise, calculated glycerol concentration was significantly lower (∼40%) than measured adipose tissue venous glycerol concentration. Despite several methodological limitations inherent to both techniques, the results strongly suggest that microdialysis and catheterization provide similar estimates of subcutaneous adipose tissue lipolysis in steady-state experimental settings like rest and continuous prolonged exercise. However, during shorter periods of exercise (<40 min), the results from the two techniques may differ quantitatively in the studied subjects. Caution should, therefore, be taken when lipolysis is evaluated, based on results obtained by the two techniques under non-steady-state conditions.

Adipose Tissue Lipolysis

The putative role played by insulin sensitizers in modulating adipose tissue lipolysis in the fasting state was evaluated in obese conscious Zucker rats treated with troglitazone or β,β′-tetramethylhexadecanedioic acid (MEDICA 16) and compared with nontreated lean and obese animals. The rates of appearance (Ra) of glycerol and free fatty acid (FFA), primary intra-adipose reesterification, and secondary reuptake of plasma FFA in adipose fat were measured using constant infusion of stable isotope-labeled [2H5]glycerol, [2,2-2H2]palmitate, and radioactive [3H]palmitate. The overall lipolytic flux (Raglycerol) was increased 1.7- and 1.4-fold in obese animals treated with troglitazone or MEDICA 16, respectively, resulting in increased FFA export (Ra FFA) in the troglitazone-treated rats. Primary intra-adipose reesterification of lipolysis-derived fatty acids was enhanced twofold by insulin sensitizers, whereas reesterification of plasma fatty acids was unaffected by either treatment. Despite the unchanged Ra FFA in MEDICA 16 or the increased Ra FFA induced by troglitazone, very low density lipoprotein production rates were robustly curtailed. Total adipose tissue reesterification, used as an estimate of glucose conversion to glyceride-glycerol, was increased 1.9-fold by treatment with the insulin sensitizers. Our results indicate that, in the fasting state, insulin sensitizers induce, in vivo, a significant activation rather than suppression of adipose tissue lipolysis together with stimulation of glucose conversion to glyceride-glycerol.

This study investigates the consequences of inhibition of adipose tissue lipolysis on skeletal muscle substrate use. Ten subjects were studied at rest and during exercise and subsequent recovery under normal, fasting conditions (control trial, CON) and following administration of a nicotinic acid analog (low plasma free fatty acid trial, LFA). Continuous [U-13C]palmitate and [6,6-2H2]glucose infusions were applied to quantify plasma free fatty acid (FFA) and glucose oxidation rates and to estimate intramuscular triacylglycerol (IMTG) and glycogen use. Muscle biopsies were collected to measure 1) fiber type-specific IMTG content; 2) allosteric regulators of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), glycogen phosphorylase, and pyruvate dehydrogenase; and 3) the phosphorylation status of HSL at Ser563 and Ser565. Administration of a nicotinic acid analog (acipimox) substantially reduced plasma FFA rate of appearance and subsequent plasma FFA concentrations ( P < 0.0001). At rest, this substantially reduced plasma FFA oxidation rates, which was compensated by an increase in the estimated IMTG use ( P < 0.05). During exercise, the progressive increase in FFA rate of appearance, uptake, and oxidation was prevented in the LFA trial and matched by greater IMTG and glycogen use. Differential phosphorylation of HSL or relief of its allosteric inhibition by long-chain fatty acyl-CoA could not explain the increase in muscle TG use, but there was evidence to support the contention that regulation may reside at the level of the glucose-fatty acid cycle. This study confirms the hypothesis that plasma FFA availability regulates both intramuscular lipid and glycogen use in vivo in humans.
