description The effect of saturated and unsaturated lipids on the composition of mesenteric lymph triglyceride-rich lipoproteins was studied in rats. A short-term steady-state infusion model was developed in mesenteric lymph fistula rats. Micellar solutions of linoleate, oleate, or palmitate were infused intraduodenally. Steady-state conditions of lymph flow, triglyceride, and apoA-I and apoB secretion rates were achieved in hours 3-5 after the start of the infusion. During this steady-state period, triglyceride-rich lipoproteins were prepared and characterized. With lipid infusion there were the expected increases in secretion rates of triglyceride, apoB, and apoA-I both in whole lymph and in the d less than 1.006 g/ml lipoproteins. Compositional analysis of d less than 1.006 g/ml lipoproteins revealed no difference in the ratios of phospholipid or apoA-I (surface) to triglyceride (core) constituents between saturated and unsaturated lipids, suggesting a similar particle size. This was directly verified by agarose gel filtration and electron microscopy carried out at 27 degrees C, which showed no difference in particle size between linoleate and palmitate chylomicrons. When these lipoproteins were prepared at 4 degrees C, palmitate lipoproteins exhibited dramatically changed gel filtration elution profiles, suggesting a shift to smaller or at least distorted particles and questioning earlier results suggesting a smaller size for saturated fat d less than 1.006 g/ml lipoproteins. Despite the similarity of size between saturated and unsaturated chylomicrons, the apoB content of unsaturated linoleate chylomicrons was significantly lower than that of palmitate chylomicrons. This difference was present whether chylomicrons were prepared by centrifugation or by gel filtration. The clearance of palmitate chylomicrons from the circulation of recipient rats was slightly more rapid than that of linoleate chylomicrons. The mechanism for this apparently selective increase in the apoB content of saturated fat chylomicrons is unknown but the present studies suggest that these changes may be of physiologic significance, perhaps relating to the potential atherogenicity of saturated lipids.
