Abstract
Rats were fed semipurified diets containing either sucrose or corn starch (72 % or 29 % of their total calories). Carbohydrates were exchanged for corn oil in equicaloric amounts. After 28 days, dietary sucrose had caused significantly lower concentrations of liver cholesterol than had starch. The sucrose-induced lowering of liver cholesterol, compared to starch, was amplified by increasing the amount of fat in the diet, at the expense of the carbohydrate source. An Ratten wurden halbgereinigte Diäten verabreicht, die 72% bzw. 29% Saccharose oder Maisstärke in den Gesamtkalorien enthielten. Kohlenhydrate wurden auf Kalorienbasis durch Maisöl ersetzt. Nach 28 Tagen bewirkte Saccharose im Vergleich zu Maisstärke signifikant erniedrigte Lebercho-lesterinkonzentrationen. Die von Saccharose induzierte Erniedrigung des Lebercholesterins wurde durch Erhöhung des Fettgehaltes in der Diät — auf Kosten der Kohlenhydratträger — verstärkt.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
