Long-chain fatty acids (FAs) are components of plasma membranes and an efficient fuel
source and also serve as metabolic regulators through FA signaling mediated by membrane …

The composition of the gut microbiota and excessive ingestion of high‐fat diets (HFD) are
considered to be important factors for development of obesity. In this review we describe a …

The gastrointestinal tract maintains energy and glucose homeostasis, in part through
nutrient-sensing and subsequent signaling to the brain and other tissues. In this review, we …

CD36 (cluster of differentiation 36) is a scavenger receptor that functions in high-affinity
tissue uptake of long-chain fatty acids (FAs) and contributes under excessive fat supply to …

CD36, also known as the scavenger receptor B2, is a multifunctional receptor widely
expressed in various organs. CD36 plays a crucial role in the uptake of long-chain fatty …

An attraction for palatable foods rich in lipids is shared by rodents and humans. Over the last
decade, the mechanisms responsible for this specific eating behavior have been actively …

Important protective roles of intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP)–including regulation of
intestinal surface pH, absorption of lipids, detoxification of free nucleotides and bacterial …

Siglec-9 is a sialic-acid-binding lectin expressed predominantly on myeloid cells. Aberrant
glycosylation occurs in essentially all types of cancers and results in increased sialylation …

Intestinal lipid transport plays a central role in fat homeostasis. Here we review the pathways
regulating intestinal absorption and delivery of dietary and biliary lipid substrates, principally …

Objective—Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) promotes the degradation
of the low-density lipoprotein receptor thereby elevating plasma low-density lipoprotein …
