Cholesterol absorption in rat intestine: role of cholesterol esterase and acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1984
Cholesterol esterase of pancreatic juice origin and acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase, both associated with the intestinal mucosa, are implicated in the extensive esterification of exogenous cholesterol during absorption.

The Chylomicron: Relationship to Atherosclerosis

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2012
The B-containing lipoproteins are the transporters of cholesterol, and the evidence suggests that the apo B48-containing postprandial chylomicron particles and the triglyceride-rich very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles play an important part in ...

Evaluation of the contribution of dietary cholesterol to hypercholesterolemia in diabetic rats and of sitosterol as a recovery standard for cholesterol absorption.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1985
The contribution of dietary cholesterol to hypercholesterolemia in diabetic rats fed chow ad libitum was evaluated. Diabetes was induced with streptozotocin, and the intake, absorption, and subsequent tissue distribution of dietary cholesterol were ...

Cholesterol metabolism as a prognostic marker in patients with mildly symptomatic nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Little is known about whether the alteration of cholesterol metabolism reflects abdominal organ impairments due to heart failure. Therefore, we investigated the prognostic value of cholesterol metabolism by evaluating serum campesterol and ...

Differential Expression of Intestinal Genes in Opossums with High and Low Responses to Dietary Cholesterol

Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2010
High and low responding opossums (Monodelphis domestica) differ in their plasma very low density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein (VLDL+LDL) cholesterol

Heritability of plasma noncholesterol sterols and relationship to DNA sequence polymorphism in ABCG5 and ABCG8

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
The plasma concentrations of cholesterol precursor sterols and plant sterols vary over a 5- to 10-fold range among normolipidemic individuals, and provide indices of the relative rates of cholesterol synthesis and fractional absorption.

Inhibition of Cholesterol Absorption by Oxidized Cholesterol in Rats

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 1994
The effects on cholesterol absorption of oxidized cholesterols were studied in lymph-cannulated rats. When a single emulsified lipid meal containing a tracer amount of [14C]cholesterol with either 50 mg cholesterol or 50 mg oxidized cholesterol mixture was administered intragastrically, the lymphatic absorption of cholesterol for 24 h was 33.1 ± 6.3 ...

Assessment of percent cholesterol absorption in humans with stable isotopes

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
Dietary cholesterol restriction is a general recommendation for the medical community and emphasizes the importance of intestinal cholesterol absorption and metabolism in humans.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

Determination of cholesterol absorption in man by intestinal perfusion

Journal of Lipid Research, 1977
In this study a technique is described for estimating net absorption of total cholesterol (endogenous + exogenous) that enters the intestine. The method employs intubation of patients with a 3-lumen tube that contains a 10-cm mixing segment in the ...
