CD36 is a type 2 cell surface scavenger receptor widely expressed in many immune and
non-immune cells. It functions as both a signaling receptor responding to DAMPs and …

Our understanding of the role of the vascular endothelium has evolved over the past 2
decades, with the recognition that it is a dynamically regulated organ and that it plays a …

The fact that the identity of the cells that initiate metastasis in most human cancers is
unknown hampers the development of antimetastatic therapies. Here we describe a …

Free fatty acids (FFAs) are important substrates for mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and
ATP synthesis but also cause serious stress to various tissues, contributing to the …

CD36/FAT (fatty acid translocase) is associated with human and murine nonalcoholic fatty
liver disease, but it has been unclear whether it is simply a marker or whether it directly …

Despite growing interest and a recent surge in papers, the role of autophagy in glucose and
lipid metabolism is unclear. We produced mice with skeletal muscle–specific deletion of …

Based on a comprehensive review and critical analysis of the literature regarding the
nutritional concerns of female athletes, conducted by experts in the field and selected …

The endothelium acts as the barrier that prevents circulating lipids such as lipoproteins and
fatty acids into the arterial wall; it also regulates normal functioning in the circulatory system …

Insulin resistance in skeletal muscle is manifested by decreased insulin‐stimulated glucose
uptake and results from impaired insulin signaling and multiple post‐receptor intracellular …

Previous studies have suggested that insulin resistance develops secondary to diminished
fat oxidation and resultant accumulation of cytosolic lipid molecules that impair insulin …
