PRL suppresses lipolysis independent of gender and exerts a direct action on the adipocytes. Left panel: Epididymal (Epi) or periovarian (Ovary) adipose explants were incubated with 10 ng/ml of PRL for 24 hrs. Right panel: Dose-dependent inhibition of lipolysis by PRL in epididymal adipose explants (Explants) and mature adipocytes (Cells). Samples were incubated with PRL for 24 hrs. Lipolysis was determined by measuring isoproterenol-stimulated glycerol release. Data are expressed as nmol glycerol/mg tissue/2 hrs. Each value is a mean±SEM of 8 replicates. * p<0.05 vs. controls. Each experiment was repeated 2-3 times with similar results.
