The lecithin–cholesterol acyl transferase activity of rat intestinal lymph

The lecithin-cholesterol acyl transferase (LCAT) activity in rat mesenteric lymph was examined as a possible source of chylomicron cholesteryl ester. Lymph activity was only 2–3% of rat serum activity. Removal of d < 1.006 lipoproteins increased lymph LCAT activity, but only to 6–8% of that of se...
