This study evaluates changes in cholesterol balance in hypercholesterolemic subjects following treatment with an inhibitor of cholesterol absorption or cholesterol synthesis or coadministration of both agents. This was a randomized, double blind, placebo-

The effect of oligomeric procyanidins on endothelial function and cholesterol homeostasis [PDF]
PhDOligomeric procyanidins (OPC) are naturally occurring dietary substances, which studies suggest can protect against cardiovascular disease. To explore this further a double-blind randomised controlled crossover trial, EPICURE (Evaluation of high ...

Associations between SNPs in Intestinal Cholesterol Absorption and Endogenous Cholesterol Synthesis Genes with Cholesterol Metabolism. [PDF]
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with cholesterol metabolism and may partly explain large inter-individual variability in intestinal cholesterol absorption and endogenous cholesterol synthesis rates.

Effects of ursodeoxycholic acid on synthesis of cholesterol and bile acids in healthy subjects [PDF]
Background/Aims: Ursodeoxycholic acid ( UDCA) decreases biliary secretion of cholesterol and is therefore used for the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones.

Association between cholesterol-phospholipid vesicles and cholesterol crystals in human gallbladder bile [PDF]
Rapid aggregation of cholesterol-phospholipid vesicles in gallbladder bile seems to be the first event in the production of cholesterol crystals, a prerequisite for cholesterol gallstone formation.

Intestinal cholesterol absorption is substantially reduced in mice deficient in both ABCA1 and ACAT2
The process of cholesterol absorption has yet to be completely defined at the molecular level. Because of its ability to esterify cholesterol for packaging into nascent chylomicrons, ACAT2 plays an important role in cholesterol absorption.

Cholesterol nucleation time in gallbladder bile of patients with solitary or multiple cholesterol gallstones [PDF]
Patients with multiple cholesterol gallbladder stones have been found to be at a higher risk for the recurrence of gallstones after successful nonsurgical treatment than those with a solitary stone.

Reduction of cholesterol absorption by dietary oleinate and fish oil in African green monkeys.
To determine whether diets enriched in monounsaturated or n-3 fatty acids cause a reduction in cholesterol absorption relative to those more enriched in saturated fatty acids, we measured cholesterol absorption in 18 African green monkeys fed diets ...
