The History of the Discovery of Vitamin K
ABSTRACT Vitamin K was discovered during the 1930s when a strange haemorrhagic disorder was observed in chickens fed a cholesterol‐free diet. A fat‐soluble agent, present in green leafy vegetables and hog liver, was able to restore haemostasis in the chickens.

The pathophysiology of intestinal lipoprotein production
Intestinal lipoprotein production is a multistep process, essential for the absorption of dietary fats and fat-soluble vitamins. Chylomicron assembly begins in the endoplasmic reticulum with the formation of primordial, phospholipids-rich particles that ...

Postprandial chylomicrons [PDF]
We examined whether postprandial (PP) chylomicrons (CMs) can serve as vehicles for transporting cholesterol from endogenous cholesterol-rich lipoprotein (LDL+HDL) fractions and cell membranes to the liver via lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activities.

The ddY mouse: a model of postprandial hypertriglyceridemia in response to dietary fat
Postprandial hyperlipidemia (lipemia) is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. However, mouse models of postprandial hyperlipidemia have not been reported. Here, we report that ddY mice display marked postprandial hypertriglyceridemia in response to dietary

Abstract Background Angiopoietin‐like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) is a key circulating regulator of triglyceride metabolism and a promising pharmacological target. The physiological consequences of profound ANGPTL3 deficiency can be explored in individuals with inherited loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants, who show reduced lifetime risk of atherosclerotic ...

This study firstly isolated a tuna‐derived gut probiotic Acinetobacter seifertii YFT067. Dietary administration of YFT067 played significant roles in promoting growth performance, SCFAs production, lipid absorption, and metabolism of the host, indicating YFT067 as a promising probiotic candidate for enhancing tuna aquaculture productivity through ...

Effects of chylomicrons and chylomicron remnants on endothelium-dependent relaxation of rat aorta [PDF]
The effects of chylomicrons and chylomicron remnants on endothelium-dependent relaxation of rat aorta were studied in vitro. Chylomicrons and chylomicron remnants were prepared in vivo. Aortic rings were incubated with the lipoproteins for 45 min before the vessels were constricted with phenylephrine and concentration relaxation response curves ...
