| Research Abstract |
Effects of different kinds of fatty acid on adipocytes and skeletal myocytes were investigated to provide the basic information for fatty acid intake and prevention of metabolic syndrome. Eicosapentaenoic acid also induced inflammation in adipocytes but prevented from inflammation by interaction with macrophages. DNA microarray analysis of C2C12 myotubes suggested that the major role of the fatty acids was signal transduction via intracellular calcium.
