From: Effect of α-linolenic acid on endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated apoptosis of palmitic acid lipotoxicity in primary rat hepatocytes

Figure 3

α-Linolenic acid protects against dysfunction and apoptosis of primary rat hepatocytes induced by tunicamycin. Relative cell death treated with 5 μg/ml tunicamycin (Tn) for 16 h in presence of 150 or 250 μmol/l α-linolenic acid (ALA). Data represent mean ± S.E.M., n = 5, *P < 0.05 vs. LG, low glucose control set to 1 (0 μmol/l palmitic acid), **P < 0.05 vs. tunicamycin-only cells.
