These micro-injuries stimulate the bodys wound-healing response, increasing cell turnover and production of collagen and elastin

As mentioned before, the main function is to act as a carrier for the transport of activated long-chain fatty acids from the cytosol to the mitochondrial matrix where -oxidation takes place
