Figure 10. LNO2 decreases the phosphorylation of eIF 2α in A549 cells.

Figure 10

A549 cells were treated with 5 μM linoleic acid (LA), LNO2 or an equal volume of vehicle (MeOH) in 1% serum for 2 h. Western blotting with phospho-specific eIF 2α Semi-quantitative of the changes in eIF 2α phosphorylation was done by densitometry. There was a statistically significant decrease in phosphorylation (de-activation) of eIF 2α following LNO2 treatment relative to the vehicle control (*, p<0.05).
