TABLE 2.
Comparative studies of main FAs content in OE, WT, and KO cells
The FA methyl esters analysis was described under “Experimental Procedures.” The values represent the mean and S.D. for three measurements each.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| % | % | % | ||
| Total FAa | 1.1 ± 1.0 | 1.6 ± 1.8 | 4.5 ± 4.0 | 2.8 |
| 16:0 | 2.84 ± 0.15 | 2.44 ± 0.03 | 2.34 ± 0.08 | 1.04 |
| 18:0 | 14.87 ± 1.1 | 7.02 ± 0.4 | 23.11 ± 1.6 | 0.30 |
