Evidence for vesicles that mediate long-chain fatty acid uptake by human microvascular endothelial cells

This study analyzes the mechanisms of long-chain fatty acid (LC311) uptake by human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC). The time course revealed the presence of an early, carrier-mediated uptake component and a later component mediated by clathrin-coated vesicles (CCV) and caveolae, as evidenced...
