What transport free fatty acids to intestinal cells for absorption?

Transport of free fatty acids to intestinal cells for absorption is primarily facilitated by fatty acid transport proteins (FATPs) and fatty acid translocase (FAT/CD36). These proteins facilitate the uptake of free fatty acids across the intestinal cell membrane. Once inside the cells, fatty acids can be further processed for energy or re-esterified into triglycerides for packaging into chylomicrons. This process is crucial for the digestion and absorption of dietary fats.
