How to use

In Vitro:

5-20 μmol/L 9,10-Dihydroxystearic acid (DHSA) does not activate PPAR-γ in CV-1 cells but 50-100 μmol/L DHSA activates PPAR-γ in a dose-dependent way. 9,10-Dihydroxystearic acid does not activate PPAR-α in CV-1 cells.

In Vivo:

9,10-Dihydroxystearic acid (DHSA; fed with high fat diet containing 4% DHSA; for 5-6 weeks) treatment improves glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in KKAy mice.
