Figure 5.

Effects of palmitate and resveratrol on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. L6 myotubes were incubated without (control, C) or with 0.4 mM palmitate for 16 h (P), in the absence or presence of 25 µM resveratrol (RSV), followed by acute stimulation with 100 nM insulin for 30 min (I) and glucose uptake measurements. The values are the mean ± SE of three independent experiments, each performed in triplicates and expressed as percent of control (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 vs. control; #p < 0.05, ###p < 0.001 as indicated).
