Activity of human adenylate cyclase from human fat cell membranes

R Poupon. Biomedicine. .

Abstract

Purified adipocytes plasma membranes have been prepared from human adipose tissue. The presence of an adenylate cyclase sensitive to epinephrine and fluoride has been demonstrated. Activation of the adenylate cyclase was usually 2 to 4 fold in the presence of epinephrine 5.10-5M and 8 to 10 fold in the presence of fluoride 10 mM. The adenylate cyclase from human adipose tissue was insensitive to glucagon and ACTH; these results are in support of previous studies of lipolysis in isolated fact cells or tissue fragments from human adipose tissue.
