Fig. 2. The effects of various totally saturated species of triacylglycerol (TAG; e.g. T14:0 indicates the addition of trimyristoyl TAG) on rates of oleate release from triolein by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL). Results are presented as means ± S.E.M. (N=4) for the ratio of the rate of oleate released in the presence of the substrate indicated on the abscissa compared with the rate measured with triolein. **P<0.0001; *0.0001<P<0.002, indicating significant differences compared with the addition of triolein.
