Cellular fatty acid uptake: a pathway under construction

Open access
Su, Xiong, Abumrad, Nada A.·2009·Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism

Abstract

Membrane uptake of long chain fatty acids (FA) is the first step in cellular fatty acid utilization and a point of metabolic regulation. CD36 facilitates a major fraction of fatty acid uptake by key tissues. This review highlights the contribution of CD36 to pathophysiology in rodents and humans. Novel concepts regarding regulation of CD36-facilitated uptake are discussed, i.e. the role of membrane rafts/caveolae, CD36 recycling between intracellular depots and the membrane, and chemical modifications of that impact its turnover and recruitment. Importantly, CD36 membrane levels and turnover are abnormal in diabetes, resulting in dysfunctional FA utilization. Also, variants in the CD36 gene were recently shown to influence susceptibility for metabolic syndrome, greatly increasing the risk of diabetes and heart disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
