From: Myocardial fatty acid uptake through CD36 is indispensable for sufficient bioenergetic metabolism to prevent progression of pressure overload-induced heart failure

Figure 3

Uptake of FA and glucose by hearts, circulating levels and cardiac accumulation of lipids and glucose in the absence or presence of TAC. Samples were collected after a 12 h fast. n = 5–7. (A) Uptake of 125I-BMIPP, FA tracer, and 18F-FDG, glucose tracer, by hearts. (B) Serum levels of TG, NEFA and glucose. (C) TG and Glycogen contents in hearts. TG, triacylglycerol; NEFA, non-esterified fatty acids. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
