			The cells were treated as described in the text and in the legend to Fig. 2, except the final concentration of acetate was 2 mM, at a specific activity of 0.1 mCi/mmol of [2-14C]-acetic acid, and was added to complete cell culture media containing 25 mM glucose. In each experiment, insulin resistant and control cell monolayers were assessed in parallel, and each experiment was performed at least four times. These assay condi- tions described for both glucose and acetate resulted in linear incorporation of radiolabel into cellular material for at least 60 rain. in both the presence and absence of insulin (data not shown).
