Enhanced oleate uptake and lipotoxicity associated with laurate
Free fatty acids have been reported to induce cell death (lipotoxicity), but the effects depend on the carbon chain length and number of double bonds. Medium‐chain saturated fatty acids (MC‐SFAs), such as laurate, have less lipotoxicity than long‐chain saturated fatty acids (LC‐SFAs), such as palmit...
