An electron microscopic and functional study of very low density lipoproteins in intestinal lymph

Previous studies with fasting rats showed that the intestine produces endogenous very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) which resemble those in the plasma. Intestinal VLDL also were found to be important in lipid transport during absorption of saturated but not of unsaturated fat. These findings depen...
