A functional lymphatic vasculature is essential for tissue fluid homeostasis, immunity, and lipid clearance. Although atherosclerosis has been linked to adventitial lymphangiogenesis, the functionality of aortic lymphatic vessels draining the diseased aorta has never been assessed and the role of lymphatic drainage in atherogenesis is not well understood. We develop a method to measure aortic lymphatic transport of macromolecules and show that it is impaired during atherosclerosis progression, whereas it is ameliorated during lesion regression induced by ezetimibe. Disruption of aortic lymph flow by lymphatic ligation promotes adventitial inflammation and development of atherosclerotic plaque in hypercholesterolemic mice and inhibits ezetimibe-induced atherosclerosis regression. Thus, progression of atherosclerotic plaques may result not only from increased entry of atherogenic factors into the arterial wall but also from reduced lymphatic clearance of these factors as a result of aortic lymph stasis. Our findings suggest that promoting lymphatic drainage might be effective for treating atherosclerosis.

To encapsulate soluble iron, liposomes were prepared using unsaturated phospholipids (phosphatidylcholine from egg yolk), leading to high encapsulation efficiencies (82–99%). The iron concentration affected their oxidative stability: at 0.2 and 1 mM ferrous sulfate, the liposomes were stable, whereas at higher concentrations (10 and 48 mM), phospholipid oxidation was considerably higher. When applied in oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, emulsions with liposomes containing low iron concentrations were much more stable to lipid oxidation than those added with liposomes containing higher iron concentrations, even though the overall iron concentration was similar (0.1 M). Iron-loaded liposomes thus have an antioxidant effect at high phospholipid-to-iron ratio, but act as pro-oxidants when this ratio is too low, most likely as a result of oxidation of the phospholipids themselves. This non-monotonic effect can be of crucial importance in the design of iron-fortified foods.

The intestinal absorption of calcium (Ca) has been shown to depend on vitamin D3, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], and dietary phosphorus (P) concentration. This study was designed to evaluate the role of dietary P independent of vitamin D3 or 1,25(OH)2D3. Vitamin D-deficient rats were studied during dietary P restriction and were compared with control groups raised on a normal-phosphorus diet (NP). Balance studies were sued. Net intestinal Ca absorption was significantly lower with dietary P restriction compared with the NP group. This malabsorption of Ca was corrected by the administration of either D3 for 1,25(OH)2D3, despite hypophosphatemia. Everted gut sacs showed a marked reduction in the uptake of 45Ca in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum during dietary P restriction. We concluded that dietary P concentration plays a major role in intestinal Ca absorption in the vitamin D-deficient rats. These findings suggest an effect of the low-phosphate diet on the vitamin D-dependent, Ca-transport mechanism.

We used conscious, chronic lymph-fistula rats to compare intestinal lymphatic transport of glycerol trioleate (TO) vs. glycerol trielaidate (TE) and to determine the effect of TO vs. TE on absorption and transport of cholesterol. Rats were implanted with intestinal lymph fistulas and duodenal cannulas and then given intraduodenal infusions of lipid emulsions containing purified TO or TE (40 mumol/h) and cholesterol (7.8 mumol/h + 2 microCi [14C]cholesterol). Lymph samples were collected at 0, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 h after the start of lipid infusion. Lymphatic output and luminal and gut wall recovery of radioactive lipid at 8 h were quantified. Triacylglycerol (TG) fatty acid isomers did not affect lymphatic output of TG; lymph TG fatty acid composition and output reflected infusate composition. Lymphatic output of cholesterol (mass and radioactivity) did not differ between groups; luminal and gut wall recovery of [14C]cholesterol was also similar between groups. Similar lymphatic transport of TG and cholesterol between triolein- and trielaidin-infused rats was maintained for up to 16 h after the cessation of an infused lipid load. These results indicate that TO and TE are transported into lymph similarly, and that cholesterol absorption and transport are similar irrespective of whether TO or TE is the TG source. The data suggest that trans fatty acid-induced hypercholesterolemia is not due to altered intestinal absorption and transport of cholesterol.
