Visualizing Fatty Acid Flux

Publication date: 5 June 2018
Source:Cell Metabolism, Volume 27, Issue 6
Author(s): Ulf Eriksson, Annelie Falkevall
In a recent issue of Cell Metabolism, He et al. (2018) describes a novel technique to visualize cardiac intravascular lipoprotein lipase-mediated processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and then follow the flux of released fatty acids across the endothelium to the underlying cardiomyocytes at high spatial resolution. This allows for detailed analyses of this clearly complex process.
