mRNA expression of CD95/Fas, TNFR1 and fatty acid-binding protein (FABP)-1 as well as apoptosis marker M30 in human primary hepatocytes after free fatty acids (FFA) treatment. FFA incubation for 24–96 h increased CD95/Fas and FABP-1 expression in primary hepatocytes (a and c) but did not alter vulnerability to CD95/Fas-induced cell death shown by measurement of apoptosis marker M30 (d). TNFR1 expression was activated only after stimulation with 0.5 mM FFA for 24h (b). PCR data represent relative expression vs untreated cells (fold change) as mean±s.e.m. of n=7, *P<0.05 vs untreated control cells. Quantification of M30 shown as mean±s.e.m. of n=3.
