Lymph organic content

Most tissues have well-defined patterns of esterase activity. Thus, the ESI synthesized in mouse liver constitutes the major esterase activity in murine plasma. It has been postulated that the ES2 present in the lymph plays an essential role in fat resorption [92], Four esterases designated ES5, SEI, SEII, and SEIII are restricted to serum and have not been identified in other tissues. The content of ES6 is highest in organs with active fat metabolism, but is absent in serum and erythrocytes. ES7 is present in erythrocytes, lung, tongue, testis, and most other tissues but not in plasma and brain.
