Differentiated human SGBS adipocytes were incubated for 18 h at two dose levels of rhZA2G - 5 and 20 µg/ml. Lipolysis was quantified by measuring glycerol release into the medium using a standard protocol. Isoproterenol (10 µM) and IBMX (100 µM) were used as positive controls. "Con" stands for the negative control. There was a 3-fold increase in glycerol release with both doses. The increase was statistically significant at 5 µg/ml dose of rhZA2G (p<0.01) as well as in positive controls.
