Sources of error in the isotopic cholesterol balance method in African green monkeys consuming a cholesterol-free diet

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1980
Six African green monkeys were labeled intravenously with [1,2-(3)H]cholesterol while consuming a cholesterol-free liquid formula diet. The plasma cholesterol specific activity was compared with the specific activity of the biliary cholesterol and bile ...

Hepatic accumulation of intestinal cholesterol is decreased and fecal cholesterol excretion is increased in mice fed a high-fat diet supplemented with milk phospholipids

open access: yesNutrition & Metabolism, 2010
Background Milk phospholipids (PLs) reduce liver lipid levels when given as a dietary supplement to mice fed a high-fat diet. We have speculated that this might be due to reduced intestinal cholesterol uptake.

Liver X receptor-mediated activation of reverse cholesterol transport from macrophages to feces in vivo requires ABCG5/G8

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2008
Liver X receptor (LXR) agonists increase both total fecal sterol excretion and macrophage-specific reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) in vivo. In this study, we assessed the effects of ABCG5/G8 deficiency as well as those of LXR agonist-induction of RCT

Urinary and Fecal Excretion of Orally Administered Mg28.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1958
SummaryA tracer dose of Mg28 (10 to 25 μc contained in 3 to 10 meq of magnesium) was administered orally to 26 subjects, and serial specimens of blood, urine and feces were assayed for radioactivity. Urinary excretion within 72 hours accounted for less than 10% of total dose of Mg28; the maximal excretion (6.3%) occurred during the first 24-hour period.

Distiller’s dried grains with solubles (Zea mays L.) in feeding sheep on nitrogen balance

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Agrárias, 2017
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of diets supplemented with 0.0, 8.0, 16.0, and 24.0% distiller’s dried grain solubles (DDGS) on nitrogen (N) intake, fecal and urinary N excretion, and N absorption and retention (N balance, NB) by ...

Faecal leukocyte esterase activity is an alternative biomarker in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Leukocyte cytosolic proteins (e.g., calprotectin) are emerging biomarkers for inflammatory bowel disease. Leukocyte aryl esterase activity has been commonly used for sensitive detection of leukocytes in human body fluids such as urine.

Acute sterol o-acyltransferase 2 (SOAT2) knockdown rapidly mobilizes hepatic cholesterol for fecal excretion.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The primary risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is LDL cholesterol, which can be reduced by increasing cholesterol excretion from the body.

Seasonal Variations of Strongyle Egg Excretion in Horses in a Subhumid Area of Algeria

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2008
The seasonal evolution of strongyle egg excretion was studied in untreated horses, grazing on pastures in the coastal area of El Tarf, using the fecal egg count method and larval cultures. Strongyle egg excretion occurred mainly in the summer and reached
