IEPA.d36.s87
Wortmannin converts insulin but not oxytocin from an antilipolytic to a lipolytic agent in the presence of forskolin
IEPA.d36.s88
The present studies compared the effects of insulin in rat adipocytes with the effects of oxytocin and peroxovanadate, which mimic some effects of insulin
IEPA.d36.s89
The antilipolytic effects of peroxovanadate and oxytocin were unaffected by 500 nmol/L wortmannin, which blocked the antilipolytic action of insulin
IEPA.d36.s90
The data provide additional support for the hypothesis that oxytocin and peroxovanadate affect adipose tissue metabolism by mechanisms distinctly different from those involved in insulin action
