Intestinal lipid absorption
TL;DR: This work has identified several new mechanisms by which lipids are taken up by enterocytes and packaged as chylomicrons for export into the lymphatic system or clarified the actions of mechanisms previously known to participate in these processes.

Lipid Changes in Mature-green Tomatoes during Ripening, during Chilling, and after Rewarming subsequent to Chilling
TL;DR: In this article, the pericarp of 'Pik Red' tomatoes ( Lycopersicon esculentum mill) was harvested when mature-green (MG) was then ripened for 1 or 14 days at 20C, chilled for 11 or 21 days at 2C, or transferred to 20C for 4 days (rewarmed).
