CD36 deficiency in mice impairs lipoprotein lipase-mediated triglyceride clearance

CD36 is involved in high-affinity peripheral FFA uptake. CD36-deficient (cd36−/−) mice exhibit increased plasma FFA and triglyceride (TG) levels. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the cause of the increased plasma TG levels in cd36−/− mice. cd36−/− mice showed no differences in hepatic V...
