1. Rates of lipolysis were measured at different concentrations of glucagon in adipocytes prepared from parametrial adipose tissue of fed or starved rats in different reproductive states. All experiments were performed in the presence of a high concentration of adenosine deaminase (1 unit/ml). 2. Maximal rates of lipolysis (elicited by 25 nM-glucagon in each instance) were higher in adipocytes from peak-lactating rats than those from pregnant animals in both the fed and starved states. 3. Of adipocytes from fed animals, those from peak-lactating rats were the most sensitive to glucagon, whereas those from late-pregnant and early-lactating rats were 1-2 orders of magnitude less sensitive. 4. Adipocytes from 24 h-starved rats showed a much smaller stimulation of lipolysis by glucagon, making the assessment of sensitivity difficult. Therefore, rates of lipolysis were also measured in the presence of a maximally anti-lipolytic dose of insulin. The presence of insulin did not alter the relative sensitivities to glucagon of adipocytes from fed animals in different reproductive states, although all dose-response curves were shifted to the right. When lipolysis in adipocytes from starved animals was measured in the presence of insulin, it became evident that starvation for 24 h markedly increased the sensitivity of adipocytes from late-pregnant rats to glucagon, but did not affect that of cells from animals in the other reproductive states. 5. It is concluded that the large changes in sensitivity to glucagon that occurred during the reproductive cycle may enable the modulation of adipose-tissue lipolysis in vivo to satisfy the different metabolic requirements of the animal in the transition from pregnancy to peak lactation.
