TNF-α or oleic acid treatment has no apoptotic inducing effect on INS-1 cells. Cells were pre-treated with low (1 μM) and high (10 μM) oleic acid, low (100 pg/mL) and high (1,000 pg/mL) TNF-α or pre-treated for 2 hours with oleic acid (10 μM) and subsequently treated with TNF-α (100 pg/mL). Twenty-four hours later the apoptotic status of cells was assessed using flow cytometry (Annexin V/PI staining). Results are expressed as percent of apoptotic/necrotic cells (upper right and lower right quadrant). Shown is one representative experiment performed in duplicate out of three independent experiments.
