Resistin expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes is reduced by arachidonic acid

The resistin gene is expressed in adipocytes and encodes a protein proposed to link obesity and type 2 diabetes. Increased plasma FFA is associated with insulin resistance. We examined the effect of separate FFAs on the expression of resistin mRNA in cultured murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The FFAs teste...
