Diurnal variation of plasma methyl sterols and cholesterol in the rat: relation to hepatic cholesterol synthesis

Lipids
T E StrandbergT A Miettinen

Abstract

Free cholesterol of plasma low density lipoproteins (LDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL) of the rat was high and that of plasma very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) was low during the dark period of the diurnal cycle. Variations in the esterified plasma sterols were inconsistent. Free methyl sterols were high in all lipoproteins during the dark phase. Simultaneously, the incorporation of 14C-acetate into nonsaponifiable sterols and the concentrations of free methyl sterols and cholesterol in the liver were elevated.

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
