What is a lipoprotein and where are they found? What about cytokines?

OpenStudy (matt101):

A lipoprotein is a protein with lipids attached to it. There are many examples of lipoproteins, but one you might be familiar with are the ones the blood that carry fats throughout the body (which otherwise would not be possible since the fats on their own would not dissolve in plasma). Cytokines are a class of proteins that act as signalling molecules between cells, most commonly in the context of the immune system.

Lipoproteins are the particles that transport cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood stream. Lipoproteins are composed of proteins (apolipoproteins), phospholipids, triglycerides and cholesterol. The lipoproteins vary in the major lipoprotein present, and the relative contents of the different lipid components. Lp(a) is a lipoprotein rich in cholesterol. It differs from LDL as it contains an additional protein, apolipoprotein (a). Similar to LDL, an Lp(a) particle also contains one molecule of apolipoprotein B.
