We report here a study of the incorporation and metabolism of various long chain fatty acids in SK-Hep-1 cultured hepatoma cells. Medium supplementation with radiolabelled palmitic, stearic, linoleic, alpha-linolenic and eicosa-8,11,14-trienoic acids (1 microM, 24 H) resulted in an active uptake of
## Abstract CD36, a multifunctional adhesion receptor e.g. for thrombospondin and collagen, as well as a scavenger receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein, is expressed e.g. on platelets and monocytes. By this dual role it might be involved in early steps of atherosclerosis like the recruitme
