“…In addition, TRL also include chylomicron and VLDL remnant particles, partially depleted of triglycerides (TG) and enriched with cholesteryl esters. The transformation of TRL into remnant particles is dependent upon TG hydrolysis by lipoprotein lipase (LPL), which is attached to the surface of the vascular endothelium [4]. The enzyme can differentiate between substrates and exhibits specificity with respect to fatty acid length chain and unsaturation [4,5].…”

“…The transformation of TRL into remnant particles is dependent upon TG hydrolysis by lipoprotein lipase (LPL), which is attached to the surface of the vascular endothelium [4]. The enzyme can differentiate between substrates and exhibits specificity with respect to fatty acid length chain and unsaturation [4,5]. Therefore, the composition of TRL-TG is decisive for the activity of LPL and the formation of TRL remnants.…”

“…[2][3] LPL is one member of the triglyceride (TG) lipase gene family, which includes pancreatic lipase (PL), hepatic lipase (HL) and newly discovered endothelium lipase (EL). 4 It is a rate-limiting enzyme in the hydrolysis of triglyceride-rich particles, 5 such as chylomicron and very-low-density lipid (VLDL), thereby providing non-ester acids and 2-monoacylglycerol for tissue use. 6 Recently, in addition to hydrolysis, LPL has been reported to be involved in lipid intake and clearance.…”

“…Fatty acids are released from circulating VLDL triacylglycerols by the action of the heparin-binding enzyme, lipoprotein lipase (EC 3.1.1.34) (Wang et al, 1992). The enzyme is tightly regulated by the composition of dietary fats (Montalto & Bensadoun, 1993), can differentiate between substrates (Calder et al, 1994) and exhibits speci®city with respect to the position of fatty acid chains in the glycerol backbone (Wang et al, 1982).…”
