Chylomicrons are the major carrier of the fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) from the intestinal epithelial cells to the circulation. These vitamins are absorbed through the small intestine into the intestinal epithelial cells where they are packaged into chylomicrons and transported via the lymphatic system before entering the bloodstream. Chylomicrons are large lipoprotein particles composed of triglycerides, phospholipids, cholesterol, and apolipoproteins.
