Journal ArticleDOI

Defective uptake and utilization of long chain fatty acids in muscle and adipose tissues of CD36 knockout mice.

TL;DR: It is concluded that CD36 facilitates a large fraction of fatty acid uptake by heart, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissues and thatCD36 deficiency in humans is the cause of the reported defect in myocardial BMIPP uptake.
Journal ArticleDOI

Production of (177)Lu for Targeted Radionuclide Therapy: Available Options.

TL;DR: A broad understanding and discussion of the issues associated with 177Lu production and processing approaches would not only ensure sustained growth and future expansion for the availability and use of 177Lu-labeled radiopharmaceuticals, but also help future developments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defective Fatty Acid Uptake in the Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat Is a Primary Determinant of Altered Glucose Metabolism, Hyperinsulinemia, and Myocardial Hypertrophy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined whether loss of CD36 function in FA uptake is a primary determinant of the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) phenotype and showed that supplementing the diet with short-chain fatty acids, which do not require CD36-facilitated transport, eliminated the increase in glucose uptake, the hyperinsulinemia, and the heart hypertrophy in the SHR.
Journal ArticleDOI

New radioiodinated methyl-branched fatty acids for cardiac studies.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the prolonged myocardial retention observed with DMIPP in vivo may result from inhibition of β oxidation, and [123I]DMIPP should be useful for evaluation of aberrations in regionalMyocardial uptake.
