The effect of insulin upon glucose metabolism by adipose cells of different size: Influence of cell lipid and protein content, age, and nutritional state

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity of isolated rat epididymal fat cells and of their delipidated derivatives (“ghosts”) was studied as a function of cellular lipid content (fat cell size), cellular protein content, animal age, and state of nutrition in an effort to examine the relationship of adipose cell size to adipose tissue insulin sensitivity.
