HSPA1A overexpression leads to increased expression of lipogenic enzymes. Cells were analysed for total triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) levels (a, b, c, d). Data represent the mean ± s.d, ** P < 0.01, * P < 0.05. Cells were infected with an Hsp70-overexpressing lentivirus and then treated with or without PA (0.5 mM) for 24 h. The mRNA expression levels of FAS, SCD, ACC and SREBP1C as well as the lipid oxidation-related enzymes ACOX, CPT-1, and PPARα were determined by real-time PCR (e, f, g, h). All experiments were repeated three times. Data represent the mean ± s.d
