The effect of different proportions of casein in semipurified diets on the concentration of serum cholesterol and the lipoprotein composition in rabbits

Abstract: The effect of different proportions of casein in semipurified diets on the concentration of serum cholesterol and the lipoprotein composition was studied in rabbits. Low-casein diets (10% w/w) resulted in serum cholesterol levels and growth rates that were lower than high-casein diets (40%). An intermediate proportion of casein (20%) produced intermediate concentrations of serum cholesterol, but only minor differences in food intake and weight gain, compared with the high-casein group. In the animals with the … Show more

“…The reverse increase in TC concentration after week 4 in the milk protein group may have been due to casein being used as the major protein component in this group. Casein has been found to be more hypercholesterolaemic than soya protein (Terpstra et al 1981;Kurowska & Carroll, 1990). Furthermore, the time-by-treatment interaction was significant in the soya protein group, and there was a significant reduction in TC from baseline compared with the milk protein group.…”

“…Terpstra and colleagues reported similar results, but their data also demonstrated the dose effect of casein fed to Zucker strain rats [46]. Their study included six groups of animals fed with either a commercial diet with no cholesterol, a commercial diet with 1.2 % cholesterol, or four types of semi-purified cholesterol enriched diets (20 % casein, 50 % casein, 20 % soybean, or 50 % soybean (g/100 g of feed)).…”
