Subcutaneous upper-thigh fat biopsies were obtained before and after 8-h hyperglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamps without (HG+HI) and with (HG+HI+lipid) coinfusion of lipid. Shown are after/before mRNA ratios from pooled fat biopsies (n = 4) determined with a human UPR pathway array (cat. no. PAH-098Z; SABiosciences Co.).
