Uptake of long-chain fatty acids in HepG2 cells involves caveolae

We investigated the role of caveolae in uptake and intracellular trafficking of long chain fatty acids (LCFA) in HepG2 human hepatoma cells. The uptake of [3H]oleic acid and [3H]stearic acid into HepG2 cells was measured by radioactive assays and internalization of the non-metabolizable fluorescent...
