Fat that has been digested is packaged in protein- and phosphorus-containing lipoproteins which travel from your lymph to your bloodstream. These are called chylomicrons.
<h3>What are chylomicrons?</h3>
- Chylomicrons are large triglyceride-rich lipoproteins produced in enterocytes from dietary lipids—namely, fatty acids, and cholesterol.
- Chylomicrons are composed of a main central lipid core that consists primarily of triglycerides, however like other lipoproteins, they carry esterified cholesterol and phospholipids.
- Chylomicrons exit the enterocyte via the lacteals into the systemic circulation.
- They are acted on by LPL with its cofactor Apo-CII, which cleaves off FA moieties, which in muscle and adipose tissue are immediately mobilized for energy or stored for future use.
- So digested fat is transported through lymphatics as chylomicrons.
