This study reveals the dynamic of fat absorption in the small intestine of lean and obese mice in response to dietary fat. Unique features of cytoplasmic lipid droplets (CLDs) were identified in the proximal, middle, and distal regions of the small intestine of lean and obese mice, potentially contributing to regional differences in dietary fat processing, absorption, or CLD metabolism.
The absorptive cells of the small intestine, namely, enterocytes, contribute to postprandial blood lipid levels by secreting dietary triacylglycerol in chylomicrons. The rate and amount of dietary triacylglycerol absorbed vary along the length of the small intestine. Excess dietary triacylglycerol not immediately secreted in chylomicrons can be temporarily stored in cytoplasmic lipid droplets (CLDs) and repackaged in chylomicrons at later times. The characteristics of CLDs, including their size, number per cell, and associated proteins, may influence CLD metabolism and reflect differences in lipid processing or storage in each intestinal region. However, it is unknown whether the characteristics or proteomes of CLDs differ in enterocytes of each intestine region in response to dietary fat. Furthermore, it is unclear if obesity influences the characteristics or proteomes of CLDs in each intestine region. To address this, we used transmission electron microscopy and shotgun liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis to assess the characteristics and proteome of CLDs in the proximal, middle, and distal regions of the small intestine of lean and diet-induced obese (DIO) mice 2 h after an oil gavage. We identified differences in lipid storage along the length of the small intestine and between lean and DIO mice, as well as distinct CLD proteomes reflecting potentially unique roles of CLDs in each region. This study reveals differences in lipid processing along the length of the small intestine in response to dietary fat in lean and DIO mice and reflects distinct features of the proximal, middle, distal region of the small intestine. NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study reflects the dynamics of fat absorption along the length of the small intestine in lean and obese mice in the physiological response to dietary fat. We identified unique features of cytoplasmic lipid droplets (CLDs) in the proximal, middle, and distal regions of the small intestine of lean and obese mice that may contribute to regional differences in dietary fat processing, absorption, or CLD metabolism.
