Development of in vitro Chylomicron Assay Using Caco-2 Cells
… transported by the intestine in lipoproteins: chylomicrons (CMs) and very low density lipoproteins (VLDLs). Unfortunately, studies of the intestinal absorption of dietary fat have been hampered by the lack of an adequate in vitro model system. As an <em>in vitro</em> model Caco-2 cells are able …

The regulation of postprandial lipemia in man
… To evaluate the existing methods for comparing chylomicron-triglyceride clearance, the oral and intravenous fat tolerance tests and a steady state duodenal perfusion method were compared. Good correlations (r > 0.8) were found between each of these methods. Since the intravenous fat tolerance …

A study of omega-3 fatty acid therapy in patients with nephrotic syndrome
… lipaemia was improved with an improvement in chylomicron clearance. However, we found that treatment increased LDL-C and although there was a redistribution to protective HDL2 rather than HDL3, HDL-C was not significantly increased. Furthermore, there was no improvement in endothelial function …

Effects of dietary fat saturation on lipoprotein metabolism in rodents and humans
… and TG between the test oils. We analyzed the chylomicron fractions following the oral fat challenge and data revealed no significant differences in the chylomicron fractions between the test oils. Additionally, we measured CETP activity in plasma following the challenge and no significant …

Impatto del profilo lipidico sulla malattia aterosclerotica in due differenti coorti di pazienti ad alto rischio cardiovascolare
… to only approximately 70 nm in diameter [i.e., chylomicron remnants, smaller very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL), LDL, and lipoprotein(a)] can efficiently cross an intact endothelium, and among these, the smaller ones pass more readily than the larger …

Effect of non-esterified fatty acids on insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk in polycystic ovary syndrome
… fasting and postprandial IR in PCOS. It enhanced chylomicron clearance with reduced overnight VLDL production. A rebound rise in NEFA following chronic tredaptive therapy worsened fasting and postprandial IR. However, despite this, tredaptive had the counterintuitive effect of lowering fasting and …

The Dietary and Endogenous Components of Human Serum Triglycerides in Alimentary Lipemia
… series of serum lipoprotein complexes. Chylomicron fat particles which are formed in the intestinal mucosa after a fat meal and move into the thoracic duct lymph have been referred to as exogenous (10). However lymph chylomicrons have been found to contain endogenous as well as dietary …

Role of Lipoprotein Lipase in Lipid Metabolism: The Effects of Exercise and Diet
… which hydrolyzes plasma TG contained within chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins. Lipoprotein lipase is essential for clearance of plasma TG and has been suggested to be the regulatory step in determining plasma TG concentrations. The studies presented in this thesis define changes …

Apobec1-Mediated RNA Editing in Monocytes Contributes to Genetic Heterogeneity and Modulates Monocyte Activity and Development
… of ApoB is essential for the formation of the chylomicron, a lipid transport protein, making APOBEC1 a crucial enzyme for lipid metabolism. In recent years, our laboratory developed a comparative approach that uses an Apobec1-deficient mouse in order to find true Apobec1-mediated editing events …
