BIOC 460 DR. TISCHLER LECTURE 30
 LIPID TRANSPORT
2
OBJECTIVES
1. Describe the five steps of digestion and
absorption of lipids including the important
enzymes and location where each step
occurs. 2. Describe the general structure of a
lipoprotein 3. Name the 4 main classes of
lipoproteins and the major lipid component(s) in
each and apoproteins of each including the
function of the apoprotein. 4. Describe the
lipid-transport function of each lipoprotein. 5.
Discuss the function of lipoprotein lipase.
6. Compare and contrast the processing of
chylomicrons and VLDL. 7. Describe how
defects in the LDL receptor are associated with
familial hypercholesterolemia and
atherosclerosis.

PHYSIOLOGICAL PREMISE Atherosclerosis is a
major cause of death in this country. Excess
cholesterol in the blood accumulates on the walls
of blood vessels which provide oxygen to the
heart. This accumulation causes the formation of
plaques. As the plaque increases in size, it
occludes the blood vessel reducing oxygen
delivery to the affected part of the heart.
Eventually no oxygen is delivered to the cells
making them ischemic. The ischemia causes cells
to die resulting potentially in a myocardial
infarction. In bypass surgery, blood vessels,
obtained from extremities, are attached to
"bypass" the area of occluded blood vessel.

FAT FACTS
  • fat (lipid) makes up 37 of the calories in the
    American diet
  • energy rich and provides 9 kcal/gm
  • dietary lipids 90 triacylglycerols (TAGs) also
    include cholesterol esters, phospholipids,
    essential unsaturated fatty acids fat-soluble
    vitamins
  • most dietary fat transported to adipose for
    storage
  • dietary TAGs hydrolyzed in the intestine by
    pancreatic lipases then reassembled in the
    intestinal cells
  • dietary fats transported to tissues as TAG or
    cholesterol via chylomicrons
  • at peripheral tissues (e.g., adipose or
    muscle), FA removed from the TAG by a
    lipoprotein lipase in the capillary walls
    released fatty acids diffuse into the cell

Medical Scenario 59 year old male entered the
hospital suffering from chronic gnawing,
epigastric pain. The mild symptoms had become
worse in the last year, with bloating, flatulence
and loose bowel movements daily. As a boy he had
been healthy living on a diet relatively low in
fat. At 18 he became a sailor the diet on board
ship was higher in fat. At 24, he had a
perforated duodenal ulcer, which was treated
surgically. At the time of the surgery, his
blood serum was described as lipemic, with a
serum triglyceride of 1100 mg/100 ml (nllt165),
but serum cholesterol of 214 mg/100 ml
(nl150-220). Physical examination showed a
pale and wasted man. His stool contained 22.6 g
of fat per day on a diet containing 100 g of fat.
Because of a sudden fall in the patients
hemoglobin, he received a transfusion of packed
red blood cells. The hemoglobin rose to normal
and also had a remarkable effect on the plasma
triglycerides. The levels that had previously
been 1750 mg/100 ml, fell to just 196 mg/100 ml
two days after the transfusion. However over the
next 2 weeks, the triglycerides rose once again
to 1750mg/100 ml. This patient has a defect of
his apo CII. The transfusons temporarily provided
him with normal apo CII that influenced his
plasma lipoprotein levels causing the patients
triglyceride-rich lipoproteins to decrease. After
two weeks the normal apo CII was replaced with
his defective form and the hypertriglyceridemia
returned.
