Document Summary
Lipoprotein is the globule, mucosal cells form after breakdown for tg and goes into lymphatic system and takes time to show up in cvs. Healthy because it can absorb additional cholesterol if needed and takes it to liver cell to metabolize if needed. Time course until appearance of lipids in cvs. Needs to be metabolized by mucosal cells. This means we are not as good at absorbing. Tg helps absorption to form chylomicrons and this is mech for absorbing cholesterol. Decreases with dietary plant derived food due to fibre content. It is a liporotein with the highest proportion of cholesterol, less tg. Cells will engulf the ldl and extract the cholesterol found if the cells have ldl receptors. This is a protein in the membrane. Saf is used to absorb cholesterol because it helps makes the chylomicrons. Interferes with liver cell to help regulate cholesterol levels. Lowering numbers of ldl receptors in liver will reduce liver uptake of.
