The Different Insulin-Sensitising and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Palmitoleic Acid and Oleic Acid in a Prediabetes Model

Figure 1

(a) The effect of oleic (OA) and palmitoleic acid (POA) on lipolysis, mRNA expression of lipoprotein lipase (Lpl), and reesterification of fatty acids (FA) in the adipose tissue expressed as NEFA/glycerol ratio; (b) the effect of OA and POA on insulin sensitivity (IS) in the adipose tissue expressed as basal and insulin-stimulated lipogenesis; (c) the effect of OA and POA on IS in the skeletal muscle expressed as basal and insulin-stimulated glycogenesis in hereditary hypertriglyceridemic (HHTg) rats. Data are expressed as ; for each experimental group. Differences were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and LSD-Fisher’s post hoc test. denotes significance reflecting the effect of POA vs. C; # denotes significance reflecting the effect of OA vs. C; , , and #.
