Energy Substrate Supply via Lipid Emulsion (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Lipid Emulsion, Nutrient Source
01

Overview

Lipid emulsions are sterile, oil-in-water dispersions used primarily in parenteral nutrition (PN) to provide a non-carbohydrate energy source and essential fatty acids to patients who cannot meet their nutritional needs orally or enterally. They supply triglycerides, phospholipids, glycerol, and sometimes Vitamin E. After intravenous administration, lipoprotein lipase hydrolyzes the emulsion’s triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol, which are then oxidized by tissues for ATP production.

Mechanism of action

IV delivery → plasma hydrolysis → tissue uptake → mitochondrial β‐oxidation
