Carbenoxolone slightly but significantly decreased the release of FFA from rat epididymal fat pads. The antilipolytic action of carbenoxolone was not blocked by 10(-3)M 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, a potent inhibitor of phosphodiesterase. The findings suggest that carbenoxolone exerts its antilipolytic activity by acting on adenylate cyclase, thereby decreasing cyclic AMP concentrations and the activity of the hormone-sensitive lipase in adipose tissue.

Carbenoxolone significantly decreased the glucose uptake and the incorporation of glucose into triglycerides and CO2 in rat epididymal fat pads. The effect produced by insulin on these metabolic pathways was reduced when adipose tissue was incubated with insulin in the presence of carbenoxolone (10(-3) M). On the other hand the drug (10(-3) M) produced a decrease in cyclic AMP concentration in adipose tissue similar to that produced by insulin (100 ng/ml).
