this study thus demonstrates the responsiveness of adipocytes to tolbutamide and also establishes the usefulness of 3t3-l1 cells as a model system in which to study the mechanism of tolbutamide action , both as it relates to the use of sulfonylurea compounds in clinical applications and as possible probes for perturbing and studying relatively uncharacterized regulatory pathways controlling receptor level and biological responses to insulin .
