Abstract excerpt
In the circulation, non-esterified fatty acids are transported by albumin which also facilitates their removal from donor cells and uptake into receptor cells. We have studied whether genetic variations in the albumin molecule can affect its in vivo fatty acid-binding properties. The fatty acids...
