Prostaglandin E2 concentration in perfusate from microdialysis tubing implanted in subcutaneous adipose tissue of sheep did not consistently change during feeding. Noradrenaline infused into this tissue produced a prompt increase of glycerol concentration in the perfusate, but this changed to a slight decrease towards the end of the infusion. At approximately the time of this decrease, levels of prostaglandin E2 in the perfusate increased.
