The dysregulation of fat metabolism is involved in various disorders, including
neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and cancers. The uptake of long-chain fatty acids …

Polyunsaturated fatty acids are required for the brain development and significantly impact
aging and stroke. Due to the hydrophobicity of fatty acids, fatty acids transportation related …

Uptake of long-chain fatty acids plays pivotal roles in metabolic homeostasis and human
physiology. Uptake rates must be controlled in an organ-specific fashion to balance storage …

The uptake and metabolism of long chain fatty acids (LCFA) are critical to many
physiological and cellular processes. Aberrant accumulation or depletion of LCFA underlie …

Long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) are a major caloric component of our diet and are key
metabolites for energy generation and storage. Physiological uptake of LCFAs across cell …

Lipids are essential components of a living organism as energy source but also as
constituent of the membrane lipid bilayer. In addition fatty acid (FA) derivatives interact with …

J. Neurochem.(2011) 117, 735–746. Abstract The blood‐brain barrier (BBB), formed by the
brain capillary endothelial cells, provides a protective barrier between the systemic blood …

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 …

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 …

Most eukaryotic cells are capable of taking up long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) to be used for a
variety of cellular processes. Low levels of cellular uptake may occur by simple diffusion of …
