Total BCFA in H4 cells were estimated by summing FA weights in each lipid fraction. PL iso-16:0% was calculated by wt(iso-16:0 in PL)/wt(total iso-16:0 in cell)×100% and so on.

Means not sharing a common letter indicated a statistically significant difference between individual BCFA (p<0. 05). n=2. Comparisons were made among individual BCFA within the same lipid classes.
