Treatment with low and high glucose concentration or palmitate for 2 h did not affect FABP4 secretion from 3T3‐L1 adipocytes. FABP4 secretion was increased by stimulation of lipolysis using isoproterenol, a β<sub>3</sub>‐adrenoceptor agonist (CL316243), forskolin, dibutyryl‐cAMP and atrial natriuretic peptide, and the induced FABP4 secretion was suppressed by insulin or an inhibitor of PKA (H‐89), PKG (KT5823) or hormone sensitive lipase (CAY10499).</p> </sec> <sec id="oby20954-sec-0004" sec-type="section"> <title>Conclusions</title> <p>FABP4 is secreted from adipocytes in association with lipolysis regulated by AC‐PKA‐ and GC‐PKG‐mediated signal pathways. Plasma FABP4 level declines postprandially, and suppression of FABP4 secretion by insulin‐induced anti‐lipolytic signaling may be involved in this decline in FABP4 level.</p> </sec> </abstract>
