The Role of Dietary Cholesterol in Lipoprotein Metabolism and Related Metabolic Abnormalities: A Mini-review

Abstract: Cholesterol plays a vital role in cell biology. Dietary cholesterol or "exogenous" cholesterol accounts for approximately one-third of the pooled body cholesterol, and the remaining 70% is synthesized in the body (endogenous cholesterol). Increased dietary cholesterol intake may result in increased serum cholesterol in some individuals, while other subjects may not respond to dietary cholesterol. However, diet-increased serum cholesterol levels do not increase the low-density lipoprotein/high-density lipoprote… Show more

“…Egg yolk contains significant amounts of cholesterol, and Beynen et al [ 131 ] measured increased levels of both LDL and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in subjects who followed a diet rich in egg yolk (6 egg yolks/day for 10 days). Dietary cholesterol accounts for approximately one third of the pooled body cholesterol, the remaining being synthesized in the body [ 132 ]. In line with this fact, modest increases in plasma lipoprotein profiles were observed in two other studies [ 133 , 134 ].…”

“…The LDLs are very small particles made up by lipids, cholesterol and proteins, with the function of transporting cholesterol and lipids from the blood to the adipose and muscular tissue and, in general, to all cells of the body [65,66]. However, the LDLs can be oxidized by the FR, affecting, consequently, the molecules of cholesterol and fatty acids that constitute each LDL.…”

“…Exogenous cholesterol from food could significantly influence the amount of production and the formation of endogenous cholesterol. Both "endogenous" and "exogenous" cholesterol are transferred by a number of lipoprotein particles including chylomicrons, VLDL, LDL and HDL (Kapourchali et al, 2016).…”
