Fatty acid uptake by Caco-2 human intestinal cells

The Caco-2 human enterocytic cell line was used to study the kinetics and mechanism of intestinal long chain fatty acid uptake. Initial rates of palmitate (16:0), oleate (18:1), and octanoate (8:0) uptake were determined for adherent cells at greater than 7 days confluence. Uptake of long chain 18:1...
