Catabolism of prothrombin-chylomicron complexes in vivo in the rat
The metabolism in vivo in the rat of 125I-prothrombin-chylomicron complexes was compared to that of free 125I-prothrombin injected in saline or together with chyle chylomicrons. The group that obtained 125I-prothrombin-chylomicron complexes exhibited a faster initial decrease of plasma 125I-prothrombin, a higher radioactivity in the liver and more trichloroacetic acid soluble 125I in plasma than i
