Figure 2

Basal and insulin-stimulated rates of glucose uptake (Panel A), basal mRNA levels of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4, Panel B), basal protein content of GLUT4 (Panel C) and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1, Panel D) in differentiated 3 T3-L1 cells treated for 24 h with either vehicle, palmitic acid (16:0, 200 μM) or palmitoleic acid (16:1n7, 200 μM). Results are means ± SE (n = 4-8/group). *P < 0.05 vs. all groups.
