Abstract excerpt
Previous in vitro studies have shown that CD36 participates in cellular fatty acid (FA) uptake. In vivo evidence for a physiologic role of CD36 in this process is poor and mostly obtained in animals. To examine the metabolic role of human CD36, we performed a glucose loading test for normals (n =...
