The Regulation of Cyclic AMP and Lipolysis in Adipose Tissue by Hormones and Other Agents

  • Chapter
Drugs Affecting Lipid Metabolism

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 4))

Abstract

Lipolysis in fat cells is regulated at least in part by the intracellular levels of adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) (1, 2). Cyclic AMP levels in fat cells are increased or decreased by several hormones and chemical agents. The relationships between such agents, cyclic AMP, and lipolysis are illustrated in Fig. 1.

Research reported in this communication was supported in part by Grants HE-08332 and AM-07462 from the United States Public Health Service.
