Oleic acid induces smooth muscle foam cell formation and enhances atherosclerotic lesion development via CD36

BACKGROUND: Elevated plasma free fatty acid (FFA) levels have been linked to the development of atherosclerosis. However, how FFA causes atherosclerosis has not been determined. Because fatty acid translocase (FAT/CD36) is responsible for the uptake of FFA, we hypothesized that the atherogenic effec...
