Sarcolemmal FAT/CD36 in human skeletal muscle colocalizes with caveolin-3 and is more abundant in type 1 than in type 2 fibers

FAT/CD36 is a transmembrane protein that is thought to facilitate cellular long-chain fatty acid uptake. However, surprisingly little is known about the localization of FAT/CD36 in human skeletal muscle. By confocal immunofluorescence microscopy, we demonstrate high FAT/CD36 expression in endothelial cells and weaker but significant FAT/CD36 expression in sarcolemma in human skeletal muscle. No apparent intracellular staining was observed in the muscle cells. There are indications in the literature that in the of fatty of FAT/CD36 fatty acid that in FAT/CD36 the protein that cellular fatty acid we that FAT/CD36 expression is in expression is in in FAT/CD36 is a transmembrane protein that is thought to facilitate cellular long-chain fatty acid uptake.
