Obesity and metabolic syndrom are characterized by dislipidemia. One of methods that is performed to increase body fat contents is by intaking of high-fat diet. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the effect of a dietary intake of high-fat on the lipid profile (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triacylglycerol) in white rat (Rattus norvegicus). This research was tested on 30 white rats that were divided into 2 randomized groups, and were treated for 4 weeks. Group 1 (K1) : was treated with standard diet, (K2) : with standard and high-fat diet. The results showed that intaking high-fat diet increases the total cholesterol content, triacylglycerol, LDL cholesterol, and decreases HDL cholesterol content.

<p>Background: Hypercholesterolemia is a condition in which increased cholesterol concentration in the blood exceeds normal values. Consuming fats and foods rich in cholesterol can increase total cholesterol levels in the blood and cause cholesterol buildup in the arteries. Starfruit (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) has saponin and flavonoid compounds which are expected to play a role in reducing total cholesterol levels. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of star fruit juice (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) to total cholesterol blood levels of male Wistar strain (Rattus norvegicus) with a high-fat diet. Method: Experimental study with post-test only control group design. Twenty-four male white rats (Rattus norvegicus) of the Wistar strain are divided into 3 groups: the experimental group which is given standard diet for 28 days; group of experimental animals who were given a high-fat diet for 28 days; the experimental group treated with a high-fat diet for 28 days and on the 15<sup>th</sup>  until 28<sup>th</sup> days were given starfruit juice (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) with a dose of 4ml/200grwieght/day. On the 29th day, it is measuredtotal cholesterol levels for all groups of experimental animals. Results: The One-Way ANOVA test shows a significant increase in the average of total cholesterol levels (p = 0,009) in group of experimental animals that are given a high-fat diet (x = 60,625± 3,462mg/dL) compared to groups of experimental animals given standard diet (x = 50± 8,468mg/dL). There is a increase in the average in cholesterol level of the experimental group given a high-fat diet and the starfruit juice (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) (x = 65,5 ± 8,960) compared to the mean total cholesterol level of group of animals given a high-fat diet (x = 60,625± 3,462). However, there is no significant increase (p = 0,201). Conclusion: Administration of starfruit juice (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) was not significantly difference in statistics on average of cholesterol level to male wistar rat (Rattus norvegicus) induced by high fat diet</p><p>Keywords: high fat diet, starfruit juice, total cholesterol level</p>

The Saesaengmyung Diet (SD) is a newly developed dietary product to help control weight. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether SD combined with a high-fat (HF) diet could influence body weight, fat accumulation, and glucose levels in blood. C57BL/6J mice were fed for 8 weeks with a standard diet, an HF diet, and an HF + 10% or HF + 20% SD diet. Body weight was recorded weekly, and plasma levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and glucose were analyzed at the end of the study. Weight increases in the 10% or 20% SD group were significantly less than in the HF diet group (p < 0.05). Plasma total cholesterol level significantly decreased by 33.5% in the 10% SD group and 38.8% in the 20% SD group, but the LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and glucose levels in the SD groups were not significantly changed. Our findings indicate that SD may be beneficial to overweight individuals in the reduction of weight gain induced by an HF diet.Key words: Saesaengmyung Diet, high-fat diet, obesity, body weight, cholesterol, glucose.

Background and Aim: Healthy goat meat is an essential aspect in increasing consumer acceptance for this livestock product. The research aimed to examine the effect of goat meat containing low cholesterol and rich omega-6 fatty acid on the performance and blood lipid status of white rats (Rattus norvegicus). Materials and Methods: Thirty 2-month-old male white rats (R. norvegicus) weighing 195-230 g were randomly divided into three groups, with each group consisting of 10 rats. Group I was treated with a control feed (T0; BR I concentrate). Group II (T1) was treated with a mixed feed containing 50% control feed and 50% goat meat. Group III (T2) was treated with a mixed feed comprising 50% control feed and 50% goat meat with low cholesterol and rich omega-6 fatty acids. Each treatment was given ad libitum for 30 days. The variables measured were dry matter and organic matter consumption, daily body weight gain, feed conversion, triglyceride levels, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and atherogenic index (AI). The data were analyzed statistically using analysis of variance in a completely randomized design. Results: The total, HDL, and LDL cholesterol levels at T0, T1, and T2 were as follows: 99.97, 35.97, and 50.43 mg/dL (total cholesterol); 108.35, 33.92, and 58.17 mg/dL (HDL cholesterol); and 101.43, 38.09, and 48.65 mg/dL (LDL cholesterol). The highest HDL and the lowest LDL cholesterol levels (p<0.05) were observed in the T2 treatment group, which had the lowest AI (1.69 vs. 1.77 and 2.19). Conclusion: The consumption of goat with low cholesterol and rich omega-6 fatty acids reduces the total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, raises the HDL cholesterol levels, and decreases the AI.

Abstract Objectives To evaluate the effects of digested total proteins (DTP) from chia seed to prevent adipogenesis and adipose tissue inflammation in mice fed a high-fat diet. Methods C57Bl/6 black mice (n = 44; 8 weeks old) where divided in 4 groups (n = 12 each): negative control (NC; standard diet AIN-93M); positive control (PC; high fat diet- HFD- 60% of lipids); normal diet + DTP (NH; standard diet + 400 mg/kg of body/day of DTP); high-fat diet plus DTP (HFH; HFD + 400 mg/kg of body/day of DTP). After 9 weeks of treatment, the animals were euthanized and the blood and the adipose tissue (total) were collected. Plasma was used to analyze total cholesterol, high-density (HDL) and low-density (LDL) lipoprotein cholesterol, triacylglycerides (TGL), aspartate (AST) and alanine (ALT) aminotransferase levels by colorimetry. Waist circumference was measured by metric tape in the middle portion between the anus and mouth and the quantity of p-p65-NF-κB and PPAR-Y ELISA test. Histomorphometric analysis was determined in adipose tissue staining with hematoxylin/eosin to determined adipocytes area and foci of inflammation by the average of 1000 cells/group. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and post-hoc of Newman-Kews (P &lt; 0.05). The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Viçosa (Protocol 01/2019). Results DTP from chia seed reduced the plasmatic levels of total cholesterol (−17.5%), LDL (−42.8%), TGL (−12.3%), and waist circumference (−5.5%) in obesity mice DTP-treated (P &lt; 0.05). The treatment with DTP reduced the adipocytes area in HFH group by −15.1% and the foci of inflammation in −78.1% in comparison with PC (P &lt; 0.05). The levels of p-p65-NF-κB in adipose tissue were reduced by DTP in mice fed a HFD in −41.1% (P &lt; 0.05). However, PPAR-γ levels, body fat (%), Lee index, and HDL levels were not changed by DTP (P &gt; 0.05). The levels of AST and ALT were not affected by HFD or DTP (P &gt; 0.05). Conclusions DTP from chia seed had an anti-inflammatory and even an anti-adipogenic effect. These results show the effectiveness of digested proteins from chia seed against obesity and its associated inflammation. Funding Sources CNPq and CAPES (Brazil), and ACES (USA).

As a natural active substance that can effectively improve blood lipid balance in the body, hypolipidemic active peptides have attracted the attention of scholars. In this study, the effect of walnut meal peptides (WMP) on lipid metabolism was investigated in rats fed a high-fat diet (HFD). The experimental results show that feeding walnut meal peptides counteracted the high-fat diet-induced increase in body, liver and epididymal fat weight, and reduce the serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL-cholesterol and hepatic cholesterol and triglyceride content. Walnut meal peptides also resulted in increased HDL-cholesterol while reducing the atherosclerosis index (AI). Additionally, the stained pathological sections of the liver showed that the walnut meal peptides reduced hepatic steatosis and damage caused by HFD. Furthermore, walnut meal peptide supplementation was associated with normalization of elevated apolipoprotein (Apo)-B and reduced Apo-A1 induced by the high-fat diet and with favorable changes in the expression of genes related to lipid metabolism (LCAT, CYP7A1, HMGR, FAS). The results indicate that walnut meal peptides can effectively prevent the harmful effects of a high-fat diet on body weight, lipid metabolism and liver fat content in rats, and provide, and provide a reference for the further development of walnut meal functional foods.

Introduction: The synthesis ovarian’s steroids is a process thats depends on the supply of cholesterol. Objective: to evaluate the influence of dyslipidemia on the secretion ovarian’s steroids. Methodology: wild female mice were used (C57BL6) and LDL (LDLR-/-), which they were separated into 4 groups (n = 10): WTS: fed a standard diet; WTHL: fed a high-fat diet; KOS: fed a standard diet; KOHL: fed a high-fat diet. After 60 days, the estrous cycle was analyzed and after anesthetized, blood was collected for the to assess the lipid profile, glucose, plasma insulin level and HOMA index was calculated. In addition, plasma levels of C-reactive protein, estrogen and progesterone were determined. Results: The hyperlipidic diet in both the WTHL and the KOHL group generated hypercholesterolemia when compared to the WTS and KOS, respectively, with a decrease in HDLc, associated with an increase in CRP levels. Severe hypercholesterolemia in the KOHL group generated insulin resistance, marked by an increase in HOMAir. Food hypercholesterolemia in the WTHL group, food and genetics in the KOHL group, compared to their WTS and KOS controls, was definitive in reducing plasma levels of estrogen and progesterone. The genetic hypercholesterolemia associated with insulin resistance observed in the KOS and KOHL groups reduced the levels of progesterone, this reduction being more severe in the KOHL group, which had the highest HOMAir. Conclusion: dyslipidemia affected ovarian steroidogenesis in mice by means of oxidative stress, inflammation and insulin resistance and / or by decreasing HDL cholesterol levels.

Background: Hypercholesterolemia, high cholesterol levels in the blood, can contribute to many forms of disease, most notably cardiovascular disease. Anti-hypercholesterolemic agents generally used for those conditions have several side effects for patients. Zingiber montanum, known locally as “bangle”, belongs to the family Zingiberaceae and is a potential plants for alternative anti-hypercholesterolemic agents. This plant, from East Kalimantan, is used in traditional medicine for health problems caused by high cholesterol levels. The aim of this research was to find alternatives to anti-hypercholesterolemic agents, especially from natural sources. Methods: This study was an experimental study using 30 Wistar male white rats. Subjects were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=5): (1) normal control group; (2) high fat diet control group; (3) high fat diet with simvastatin; (4-6) high fat diet with Zingiber montanum extracts 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg. After 4 weeks of treatment, blood was collected from all groups, and plasma concentrations of triglycerides, total cholesterol, high density lipoproteins (HDL), and low density lipoproteins (LDL) were measured. Results: The results showed significant differences in total cholesterol (p=0.000), LDL (p=0.000) and triglycerides (p=0.001) in the high-fat diet group with Z. montanum extract, as compared to the high-fat diet control. Meanwhile, there were no significant differences in HDL levels (p=0.830) between the high-fat diet group and other groups. The results also showed significant differences in total cholesterol and LDLs for rats treated with Z. montanum extract, 100 mg/kg (p=0.000), 200 mg/kg (p=0.000), and 400 mg/kg (p=0.000) compared to the high-fat diet group. The result of Z. montanum 400 mg/kg also showed a significant reduction, not only for total cholesterol and LDLs, but also for triglycerides (p=0.030). Conclusion: It could be concluded that Z. montanum extracts have the potency to be further developed as a new natural source of the anti-hypercholesterolemic agents.

Despite a high content of saturated fat, evidence from observational studies indicates that the consumption of dairy products may have a neutral effect or may be inversely associated with the risk of CVD. We aimed to examine whether milk minerals modify the effect of saturated fat on serum lipid profile. We present data from two studies. Study I had a randomised, blinded, parallel design (n 24 pigs) with a 10 d adaptation period during which a high-fat diet was fed to the pigs and a 14 d intervention period during which the same diet either enriched with milk minerals (MM group) or placebo (control group) was fed to the pigs. Study II had a randomised cross-over design (n 9 men) where the subjects were fed either a high-fat diet enriched with milk minerals (MM period) or a regular diet (control period). In both the studies, blood variables were measured before and after the intervention and faecal and urine samples were collected at the end of the dietary periods. The increase in plasma total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentrations but not in HDL-cholesterol concentration was markedly lowered by milk minerals in both the studies. In the animal study, baseline adjusted total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentrations in the MM group were 11 % (P= 0·004) and 13 % (P= 0·03) lower compared with those in the control group after the intervention. Similarly in the human study, baseline adjusted total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentrations were 6 % (P= 0·002) and 9 % (P= 0·03) lower after the MM period compared with those in the control period. HDL-cholesterol concentration was not lowered by milk minerals. These short-term studies indicate that the addition of milk minerals to a high-fat diet to some extent attenuates the increase in total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentrations, without affecting HDL-cholesterol concentration.
