The influence of epinephrine and fasting on adipose tissue content and release of free fatty acids in obese-hyperglycemic and lean mice

Epididymal-fat-pad adipose tissue obtained from obese-hyperglycemic mice exhibited an impairment in its ability to mobilize free fatty acids (FFA) when incubated with epinephrine and in response to a 16-hour fast. Unexpectedly, FFA production by adipose tissue of fed obese mice was significantly gre...
