Chronic ethanol feeding did not affect dibutyryl-cAMP-stimulated phosphorylation of perilipin A or HSL. Adipocytes isolated from pair- and ethanol-fed rats were treated with or without 0.5 mm dibutyryl-cAMP (db-cAMP) for 5 or 10 min, and fat layer-associated protein samples or whole cell homogenates were prepared as indicated. Phospho-perilipin A (p-Peri A; panel A) and phospho-HSL (pHSL; panel B) were immunoblotted using a phospho-(Ser/Thr) PKA substrate antibody. A representative immunoblot from four experiments is shown. PF, Pair-fed; EF, ethanol-fed.
