In mammalian cells, two cellular organelles, mitochondria and peroxisomes, share the ability
to degrade fatty acid chains. Although each organelle harbors its own fatty acid β-oxidation …

The multifunctional membrane glycoprotein CD36 is expressed in different types of cells and
plays a key regulatory role in cellular lipid metabolism, especially in cardiac muscle. CD36 …

In mammals, excess energy is stored primarily as triglycerides, which are mobilized when
energy demands arise. This review mainly focuses on the role of long chain fatty acids …
