چکیده

Anti-atherosclerosis effects of perilla oil were investigated, in comparison with lovastatin, in rabbits fed a high-cholesterol diet (HCD). Hypercholesterolemia was induced in rabbits by feeding the HCD containing 0.5% cholesterol and 1% corn oil, and perilla oil (0.1 or 0.3%) was added to the diet containing 0.5% cholesterol for 10 weeks. HCD greatly increased blood total cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins, and caused thick atheromatous plaques, covering 74% of the aortic wall. Hyper-cholesterolemia also induced lipid accumulation in the liver and kidneys, leading to lipid peroxidation. Perilla oil not only attenuated hypercholesterolemia and atheroma formation, but also reduced fat accumulation and lipid peroxidation in hepatic and renal tissues. The results indicate that perilla oil prevents atherosclerosis and fatty liver by controlling lipid metabolism, and that it could be the first choice oil to improve diet-induced metabolic syndrome.

Effect of dietary unsaturated fatty acids on senile amyloidosis in senescence-accelerated mice.

Effects of dietary oils on aging were investigated in senescence-accelerated mice. For 26 weeks, mice were fed purified diets containing 4% olive oil, safflower oil, perilla oil, or fish oil. Serum total, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and apolipoprotein A-II (ApoA-II) were significantly lower in the fish oil group than in the perilla oil group, and these were significantly lower than in...
