  • * Values are mean ± SD.

  • Mean under aerobic conditions was significantly different from mean under hypoxic conditions with either palmitate at 0.4 mmol/L or palmitate at 0.2 mmol/L plus oleate at 0.2 mmol/L. Means were compared with Tukey post hoc tests in 2-way ANOVA model and were significantly different at P < 0.05.

  • Mean with palmitate at 0.4 mmol/L was significantly different from mean with palmitate at 0.2 mmol/L plus oleate at 0.2 mmol/L under aerobic conditions. Means were compared with Tukey post hoc tests in 2-way ANOVA model and were significantly different at P < 0.05.
