Incubation of epididymal fat pads from fed rats in the presence of 2 mg/ml glucose resulted in the stimulation of glucose metabolism with the absence of any effect on lipolysis. Similar results were obtained when comparing the incubation of parametrial tissue of pregnant rats at three-fourths pregnancy with tissue from nonpregnant rats as control.
