[Apolipoprotein E mobility between plasma lipoproteins in intravenous administration of fat emulsions (MCT, LCT)].

Abstract excerpt

Apolipoprotein (apo) E plays a key role in chylomicron metabolism as a ligand for their uptake via the apo B/E- and apo E receptor into the liver. Apo E is not primarily synthesized with chylomicrons but is postprandially transferred to chylomicrons during lipolysis in plasma from high density lipoproteins (HDL). As triglyceride-/phospholipid emulsions given intravenously acquire apolipoproteins in plasma, we set...
