Assessment of IL8 production due to free fatty acid treatment by commercial ELISA kit. A. IL8 production in Huh-7 cells. The IL8 production was significantly reduced by the co-incubation with linoleate compared to the cells treated by palmitate alone; with 400-1000 μM linoleate in the Huh7 cells. The data represent a mean value of 4 experiments ± standard deviation. *p = 0.041 compared with cells treated by palmitate alone. B. IL8 production in HepG2 cells. The IL8 production was significantly reduced by the co-incubation with linoleate compared to the cells treated by palmitate alone; with 100-900 μM linoleate in the HepG2 cells. The data represent a mean value of 4 experiments ± standard deviation.*p = 0.011 compared with cells treated by palmitate alone.
