Chylomicron: transport dietary liquids and cholesterol from si to the rest of the body. -> endothelial lining surface of blood vessels (11:42) These contain lipoprotein lipases that cleaves off the fatty acid and releases the. Fa from the chylomicron and delivers it to the cells. If it is taken up into the muscle cells, they will burn it, use it as nrg source. If you have an adipose cell->it will convert it back to triglycerides and store it. Once these lipases release fa what is left is lpp remnant 11:43. Goes back to the liver to be reprocessed. The vldls (rich in lipid) made by liver and transport liver lipids to the body. Lipases in blood vessels release fa into cells and make vldl remnant or ldl. These are the two things are produced when fa are stripped from vldl 11:46. These must be removed from the blood.
