Human obesity is associated with decreased triglyceride turnover and impaired lipolysis in
adipocytes. We determined whether such defects also occur in subjects with only moderate
increase in fat mass. Human abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue was investigated in
healthy, nonobese subjects [body mass index (BMI)≥ 17 kg/m 2 and BMI< 30 kg/m 2].
Triglyceride age, reflecting lipid turnover, was examined in 41 subjects by assessing the
incorporation of atmospheric 14 C into adipose lipids. Adipocyte lipolysis was examined as …
