    Abstract

    Atherosclerosis is initiated by the retention of remnant lipoproteins in the arterial subendothelial space. Indeed results from animal and human studies have demonstrated the presence of chylomicron remnants in atherosclerotic lesions. The dietary fatty acid composition has been recognised to modulate postprandial chylomicron response. This thesis explores the interactive effects of dietary fatty acid composition and physiological determinants on postprandial chylomicron response, specifically the pro-atherogenic remnant lipoprotein fraction.

      Irawati, D.; Mamo, J.; Slivkoff-Clark, K.; Soares, M.; James, Tony (2017)
      TAG depleted remnants of postprandial chylomicrons are a risk factor for atherosclerosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that in the fasted state, the majority of chylomicrons are small enough for transcytosis to arterial ...

      Chylomicron particles are continually synthesised and secreted from the intestine even in the absence of ingested fat. It is possible that following consumption of low doses of fat the basal level of chylomicron secretion ...
