Lipin 2 is induced by obesity-related diabetes. A, the
graph depicts mean expression of Lpin2 in liver of
ob/ob, db/db, or matched littermate lean control
mice. B, representative Western blots showing expression of lipin 2
and actin protein in the same mice. C, the graph depicts mean rates
of TG synthesis under basal (bovine serum albumin (BSA) with no
additional fatty acids) or oleate-stimulated (0.5 mm for 30 min)
conditions using hepatocytes isolated from WT or ob/ob mice.
