Studies on the cellular mechanism of free fatty acid uptake using an analog, hexadecanol
Hexadecanol was employed as a fatty acid analog in an attempt to elucidate the role of the carboxyl group in free fatty acid uptake. Large quantities of albumin-bound [1-14C]hexadecanol were taken up by Ehrlich ascites cells during in vitro incubation. More than 90% of the 14C that was taken up rema...
