Diet and cholesterolemia. V. Effects of sulfur-containing amino acids and protein.
Interrelationships among the effects of dietary protein, sulfur-containing amino acids, and choline on the serum cholesterol concentration of the rat have been studied. Hypercholesterolemia was induced by feeding rats a diet containing cholesterol, cholic acid, and saturated fat. When the diet contained choline, additional casein alleviated the hypercholesterolemia. A similar effect was obtaine...
متن کاملAntioxidant effects of sulfur-containing amino acids.
Sulfur is an essential element for the entire biological kingdom because of its incorporation into amino acids, proteins and other biomolecules. Sulfur atoms are also important in the iron-containing flavoenzymes. Unlike humans, plants can use inorganic sulfur to synthesize sulfur-containing amino acids. Therefore, plants are an important source of sulfur for humans. Sulfur-containing compounds...
متن کاملSulfur Metabolism and Sulfur-Containing Amino Acids: I- Molecular Effectors
The biology of the macro-element sulfur (S) is attracting an ever growing attention concerning cell physiology and human health. Sulfur metabolism works at the interplay between genetics and epigenetic as well as in the maintain of cell redox homeostasis. Indeed, unbalanced levels of S compounds in the body are actually under investigation as vulnerability factors and/or indicators of impaired ...
متن کاملCholesterol lowering effect of sulfur-containing amino acids added to a soybean protein diet in rats.
The cholesterol-lowering action of soybean protein was studied with rats from the aspect of sulfur-containing amino acids using casein as a counterpart. Weanling rats were fed for 3 wk on a soybean protein isolate (SPI) or casein diet. Serum cholesterol levels did not differ between the two diet groups, but were lowered by supplementing methionine to a 10% SPI diet or cystine to an amino acid m...
متن کاملeffect of digestible protein and sulfur amino acids in starter diet on performance and small intestinal (jejunum) morphology of broilers
introduction protein is an essential constituent of all tissues of animal body and has major effect on growth performance of the bird. a better understanding of the nutritional requirements of amino acids allows a more precise nutrition, offering the possibility for the formulator to optimize the requirement of at least minimum levels of crude protein by essential amino acids requirements, gene...
