EML cells take up and metabolize FA. EML cells were placed in growth medium containing 60 lM arachidonic (a) or eicosapentaenoic (b) acid. The uptake and processing of these FA was assayed over the course of 4 days. Samples were taken just before addition of the FA (t = 0), 24, 48, 72, and 96 h for analysis by gas chromatography. The gas chromatography data for each FA is shown above for the five data points in temporal order. Data displayed are the results of three independent experiments with the mean and SEM displayed. LNA linoleic acid, ALA alpha-linolenic acid, ARA arachidonic acid, EPA eicosapentaenoic acid, DPA docosapentaenoic acid, and DHAn-3 docosahexaenoic acid. * indicate statistically significant (p<0.05) differences based on one-way ANOVA test or Kruskal–Wallis test with Dunnett multiple comparisons adjustment. ** indicate statistically significant (p<0.05) differences based on Student's t test or Mann–Whitney rank sum test without multiple comparison adjustment
