Abstract

Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) mediates the lipolysis of triacylglycerol from mammalian adipocytes, resulting in the release of non-esterified fatty acids and glycerol. Although numerous studies have examined the hormonal regulation of HSL, the measurement of HSL mRNA levels in response to hormonal regulators has not been studied. This study was designed to determine the effects of epinephrine, growth hormone, glucagon, and dexamethasone on HSL expression by measuring HSL mRNA levels and glycerol release in primary cultures of rat adipocytes. Exposure of adipocytes to epinephrine at 10(-7) M and 10(-5) M for 4 h resulted in an increase in medium glycerol (209 +/- 46%, and 284 +/- 58% of control, P < 0.001, respectively). However, no change in HSL mRNA levels occurred due to the epinephrine treatment. Similarly, the peptides glucagon (10(-7) M and 10(-5) M for 4 h) and growth hormone (100 ng/ml for 24 h) resulted in increased medium glycerol and had no effect on HSL mRNA levels in adipocytes. Dexamethasone was added to adipocyte cultures for 4 and 24 h, and resulted in a dose-dependent increase of medium glycerol (102 +/- 8%, 138 +/- 8% (P < 0.001), and 168 +/- 24% (P < 0.001) for 10(-8) M, 10(-7) M, and 10(-6) M, respectively).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
