Abstract

This study aimed to determine how an acute session of exercise (ASE) and the exercise training (ET) alter the metabolic responses of adipose tissue of different territories. We observed that the ET (rather than the ASE) induced increase in basal lipolytic rate and lowered glucose incorporation into FA of TAG, causing reduction in fat deposits. The ASE promoted an increase in lipolytic rate in animals, although it has not interfered with chronical adjustments established by ET. Additionally, the ASE promoted an increase in serum FFA, whereas ET was responsible for a reduction in serum TAG, total cholesterol and insulin, without altering blood glucose. ET and ASE were also responsible for the increased expression of <font face=\"Symbol\">b-2 adrenergic receptor, corroborating the results in lipolysis. In contrast, the expression of genes for proteins anti-lipolytic and pro-lipogenic (<font face=\"Symbol\">&#945-2a adrenergic receptor and the enzyme FAS) were also higher after ET or ASE. (AU)
