Doctors, what is the difference between apolipoprotein and chylomicron?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Particle vs. protein: Hi. Chylomicrons are a class of lipoprotein particles that are produced by the intestines to mobilize and transport non-water soluble dietary lipids (from food) via the thoracic duct into the blood, and from there, deliver fats to tissues and the remnant to the liver. There are many different apolipoproteins that serve structural & metabolic roles for various lipoproteins (chylos, VLDL, LDL, HDL)
