Effects of EPA and OEPA on cell viability as determined by the water soluble tetrazolium (WST)-1 assay. Each fatty acid (30 or 60 μM) was added to HepG2 cells with T0901317 (10 nM) and/or vitamin E (10 μM) in serum-free medium containing 0.1% BSA. The final ethanol concentration was 0.3%. After 24 h incubation, the WST-1 solution was added to the cells. The absorbance at 450 nm corresponds to cell viability. Expression levels are presented as relative percentage to vehicle control (ethanol). Data are reported as means ± SD (n = 4/group). * A significant difference from the vehicle control group (p < 0.05).
