Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with modified-hen-egg-yolk on plasma lipids and lipoprotein profiles in rats. During four-week-experiment, 64 Wistar rats were divided into four groups 16 (eight both sexes), fed commercial rat food (group C); containing 70% mixture 30% freshly cooked egg yolk originating from laying hen eggs 3% fish oil F); palm ol...

The effects of dietary cholesterol and fatty acids on the plasma cholesterol level and rates of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol secretion and low density lipoprotein (LDL) transport through LDL receptors in the liver of the hamster were investigated. Increases of plasma VLDL- and LDL-cholesterol levels and VLDL-cholesterol secretion from hepatocytes were observed in animals fed ...

Abstract Background Cardiac disease is the most common cause of death in Europe and a rising problem globally. Recently, causal relationship between ischemic heart cholesterol remnants has been suggested by genetic studies. Additionally, new studies have shown that were independently related to later development individuals free known disease. Finally, patients suffering from type 1 diabetes, o...
