While aspects of cellular fatty acid uptake have been studied as early as 50 years ago,
recent developments in this rapidly evolving field have yielded new functional insights on …

Efficient uptake and channeling of long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) are critical cellular
functions. Although spontaneous flip-flop of nonionized LCFAs from one leaflet of a bilayer …

In mammalian cells, membrane uptake of long-chain fatty acids is mediated by two separate
components; a passive component that is a linear function of the concentration of free fatty …

Cells take up long chain free fatty acids (FFA) in vivo from the non-protein bound ligand
pools in extracellular fluid and plasma, which contain∼ 100 and 600 μM albumin …

Defining the mechanism (s) of long-chain fatty acid movement through membranes is vital to
understanding whether or not entry of fatty acids into cells can be controlled at the plasma …

Fatty acids are an important component of living organisms. They are an integral building
block of all membranes, and through their properties affect lipid bilayer fluidity. Fatty acids …

Fatty acids are the main structural and energy sources of the human body. Within the
organism, they are presented to cells as fatty acid: albumin complexes. Dissociation from …

A number of cellular fatty acid‐binding proteins are being implicated in the uptake and
intracellular transport of long‐chain fatty acids by parenchymal cells. Having been a topic of …

Efficient uptake and channelling of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) are critical cell functions.
Evidence is emerging that proteins are important mediators of LCFA-trafficking into cells and …

Cellular long-chain fatty acid (FA) transport and metabolism are believed to be regulated by
membrane-associated and soluble proteins that bind and transport FAs. Several different …
