Effect of a epinephrine, b insulin and c SIT on lipolysis in adipocytes. Lipolysis was measured by assessing the amount of glycerol released from adipocytes. The relative percentage of lipolysis was calculated by comparing the experimental values with the normal control (vehicle). Epinephrine and insulin were used as the positive and negative controls, respectively. Each panel represents separate experiments performed in quadruplicates. In panel (c), statistical difference was compared using one-way ANOVA; a denotes P < 0.001 versus epinephrine, b denotes P < 0.001 versus SIT, c denotes P < 0.01 versus SIT and d indicates P < 0.001 versus epinephrine
