TEMPOL treatment prevents concentrated fine particulate matter (CAP)-induced vascular insulin resistance and inflammation. Western blot analysis of (A) the insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt and (B) the abundance of IκBα in aortas of mice treated with water or TEMPOL (1 mM, in drinking water) exposed to air or CAP for 9 days (Study IV). The continuous IκBα Western blot is shown in Figure S4B. Data are the mean ± SE normalized to controls. *p < 0.05 control versus insulin; # p < 0.05 air versus CAP. Phospho-Akt, n = 5–10; IκBα, n = 4–5.
