The effects of recombinant tumour necrosis factor (cachectin) on metabolism in isolated rat adipocyte, hepatocyte and muscle preparations. 1987
Division of Clinical Chemistry, Institute of Medical and Veterinary Science, Adelaide, S.A.
Tumour necrosis factor (TNF) did not stimulate lipolysis in isolated rat adipocytes, though preincubation with TNF increased adrenaline-stimulated fatty acid release. Glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis in isolated rat hepatocytes were not influenced by TNF in short-term (30-60 min) incubations. TNF stimulated 14CO2 production from [U-14C]glucose in rat hemidiaphragm preparations, but lactate production and alanine release were not significantly altered. It is concluded that TNF does not regulate short-term metabolism in adipocytes, hepatocytes and muscle preparations in the manner of a catabolic hormone.
