Product Name | Fatty Acid Uptake Assay Kit (Cell-Based) |
Description | Fatty acids are essential dietary nutrients consisting of a carboxylic acid moiety linked to a long aliphatic hydrocarbon chain. They are the fundamental building blocks of more complex lipids such as those that form cellular membranes. In the blood, long-chain fatty acids travel bound to serum albumin and are transported into cells by members of the SLC27 family of transmembrane transporter proteins. Uptake of long-chain free fatty acids into adipocytes is essential for regulating circulating lipid levels and cellular lipid metabolism. Abnormalities in adipocyte fatty acid uptake and lipid metabolism are major contributing factors to obesity, diabetes/metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disorders and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) |
