Lipids are a fundamental class of organic molecules implicated in a wide range of biological
processes related to their structural diversity, and based on this can be broadly classified …

Long-chain fatty acids (FAs) are components of plasma membranes and an efficient fuel
source and also serve as metabolic regulators through FA signaling mediated by membrane …

Fatty acids (FAs) are essential nutrients, but how they are transported into cells remains
unclear. Here, we show that FAs trigger caveolae-dependent CD36 internalization, which in …

Endothelial cell (EC) CD36 controls tissue fatty acid (FA) uptake. Here we examine how ECs
transfer FAs. FA interaction with apical membrane CD36 induces Src phosphorylation of …

High producing dairy cows generally receive in the diet up to 5–6% of fat. This is a relatively
low amount of fat in the diet compared to diets in monogastrics; however, dietary fat is …

Adipose tissue is a complex, multicellular organ that profoundly influences the function of
nearly all other organ systems through its diverse metabolite and adipokine secretome …

The multifunctional membrane glycoprotein CD36 is expressed in different types of cells and
plays a key regulatory role in cellular lipid metabolism, especially in cardiac muscle. CD36 …

In adipocytes the hydrolysis of TAG to produce fatty acids and glycerol under fasting
conditions or times of elevated energy demands is tightly regulated by neuroendocrine …

Long-chain fatty acids and lipids serve a wide variety of functions in mammalian
homeostasis, particularly in the formation and dynamic properties of biological membranes …

An attraction for palatable foods rich in lipids is shared by rodents and humans. Over the last
decade, the mechanisms responsible for this specific eating behavior have been actively …
