Human apolipoprotein CII (apo CII) consists of 79 amino acid residues. The amino-terminal two thirds of the molecule binds to lipid through the formation of amphipathic helixes, while the carboxy-terminal third is engaged in activation of lipoprotein ...

Ultrastructural immunolocalization of apolipoprotein B within human jejunal absorptive cells.
Apolipoprotein B (apoB) was localized by electron microscopy within absorptive cells of human jejunal biopsy specimens taken fasting and after micellar fat infusion. Nakane's double antibody immunoperoxidase technique was used to label apoB near open cut

The GTPase ARFRP1 controls the lipidation of chylomicrons in the Golgi of the intestinal epithelium
The uptake and processing of dietary lipids by the small intestine is a multistep process that involves several steps including vesicular and protein transport.

Intravenous lipid emulsions : removal mechanisms as compared to chylomicrons
We have compared the metabolism of chylomicrons and a labeled emulsion, similar to those used for parenteral nutrition. Both were labeled in their triglyceride moieties and by a core label.

Size distributions of chylomicrons from human lymph from dynamic light scattering measurements
Chylomicrons, the vehicles for the transport of exogeneous triglycerides and cholesterol in the lymph and the blood, were characterized by their size from dynamic light scattering measurements.

Long-term strict raw food diet is associated with favourable plasma b-carotene and low plasma lycopene concentrations in Germans [PDF]
Dietary carotenoids are associated with a reduced risk of chronic diseases. Raw food diets are predominantly plant-based diets that are practised with the intention of preventing chronic diseases by virtue of their high content of beneficial nutritive ...

Lipoprotein metabolism in the suckling rat: characterization of plasma and lymphatic lipoproteins.
Suckling rat plasma contains (in mg/dl): chylomicrons (85 +/- 12); VLDL (50 +/- 6); LDL (200 +/- 23); HDL1 (125 +/- 20); and HDL2 (220 +/- 10), while lymph contains (in mg/dl): chylomicrons (9650 +/- 850) and VLDL (4570 +/- 435) and smaller amounts of ...

Effect of the apolipoprotein A-IV Q360H polymorphism on postprandial plasma triglyceride clearance
Apolipoprotein (apo)A-IV is synthesized in the small intestine during fat absorption and is incorporated onto the surface of nascent chylomicrons. In circulation, apoA-IV is displaced from the chylomicron surface by high density lipoprotein-associated C ...

Postprandial lipoprotein metabolism: VLDL vs chylomicrons [PDF]
Since Zilversmit first proposed postprandial lipemia as the most common risk of cardiovascular disease, chylomicrons (CM) and CM remnants have been thought to be the major lipoproteins which are increased in the postprandial hyperlipidemia.

Vitamin E Bioavailability: Mechanisms of Intestinal Absorption in the Spotlight
Vitamin E is an essential fat-soluble micronutrient whose effects on human health can be attributed to both antioxidant and non-antioxidant properties. A growing number of studies aim to promote vitamin E bioavailability in foods.
