DharmaFECT DUO reagent, non-targeting siRNA, or adiponectin siRNA (all from GE Dharmacon, Lafayette, CO) were pre-incubated with OptiMEM media (Life technologies Carlsbad, CA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Mature adipocytes were trypsinized. 1.16 X105 cells/cm2 were re-plated in 12-well plates and transfected by adding transfection reagents. After 24 h, media was changed to DMEM with 10% FBS. FFAs and UT treatments were added 48 hours after transfection.
