In an earlier study it was shown that retinyl palmitate appeared to be a satisfactory label for the core of chylomicrons and their remnants. When chylomicrons were endogenously labeled with retinyl palmitate and pulse-injected into healthy donors ...

Characterization of chylomicron remnant clearance by retinyl palmitate label in normal humans.
To characterize chylomicron remnant clearance by the liver, plasma elimination of retinyl palmitate-labeled chylomicron remnants was studied in 18 healthy subjects, ages 21-42 years. Autologous plasma containing retinyl palmitate-labeled chylomicrons and

Plasma clearance of chylomicrons labeled with retinyl palmitate in healthy human subjects.
To estimate hepatic uptake of chylomicron remnants in humans, chylomicrons and intestinal very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were endogenously labeled with retinyl esters, harvested by plasmapheresis, and pulse-injected into the donor 44 hr after ...

Plasma lipoprotein metabolism in transgenic mice overexpressing apolipoprotein E. Accelerated clearance of lipoproteins containing apolipoprotein B. [PDF]
We have reported that transgenic mice overexpressing rat apo E shows marked reduction of plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels due to the disappearance of VLDL and LDL.

Simulated Impact of Vitamin A-Fortified Sugar on Dietary Adequacy and Association of Usual Sugar Intake With Plasma and Breast Milk Retinol Among Lactating Zambian Women. [PDF]
In Zambia, mandatory sugar fortification with vitamin A has been implemented, but its impact on vitamin A intake and status is uncertain. Modelling of dietary data from lactating women suggests that the potential impacts of sugar fortification on VA intakes are limited if the programme is not implemented as planned.

Comparison of retinyl ester hydrolase activities in bovine liver and retinal pigment epithelium
Various properties of retinyl ester hydrolysis in the liver and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have been studied, yet the relationship between the retinyl ester hydrolase (REH) activities in these tissues of the same species is not known.

Leukocyte function and health status of calves supplemented with vitamins A and E [PDF]
Forty-four Holstein calves were fed milk replacers with varied concentrations of vitamins A and E from 3 to 45 d of age to determine their effects on concentrations of plasma vitamin A (retinol and retinyl palmitate) and vitamin E (a- tocopherol ...

Use of water-miscible retinyl palmitate as markers of chylomicrons gives earlier peak response of plasma retinyl esters compared with oil-soluble retinyl palmitate [PDF]
Delayed peak response of plasma retinyl esters (RE) relative to plasma triacylglycerols (TAG) and apolipoprotein (Apo) B-48 responses following a fat load supplemented with vitamin A raised doubts about the use of vitamin A to label dietary-derived lipids and lipoproteins.
