Intestinal basolateral lipid substrate transport is linked to chylomicron secretion and is regulated by apoC-III.

ABSTRACT: Chylomicron metabolism is critical for determining plasma levels of triacylglycerols (TAGs) and cholesterol, both of which are risk factors for CVD. The rates of chylomicron secretion and remnant clearance are controlled by intracellular and extracellular factors, including apoC-III. We have previously shown that human apoC-III overexpression in mice (apoC-III^Tg mice) decreases the rate of chylomicron secretion into lymph, as well as the TAG composition in chylomicrons. We now find that this decrease in chylomicron secretion is not due to the intracellular effects of apoC-III, but instead that primary murine enteroids are capable of taking up TAG from TAG-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) on their basolateral surface; and via Seahorse analyses, we find that mitochondrial respirati
