Feeding cuttlefish liver oil (CFLO) at 1% level to rats fed atherogenic diet (AD) for a period of 90 days, showed a lowering of gain in body weight and liver weight; lipid components in serum and tissues, LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) and atherogenic ratio; increase in HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), increased faecal excretion of bile acids and neutral sterols; decreased lipogenic enzyme activities, increased antioxidant enzyme activities and antioxidant levels, but, decreased levels of lipid peroxidation products in tissues. The antiatherogenic action of CFLO observed is through decreased lipogenesis, increased cholesterol transport to liver, enhanced excretion of neutral sterols and bile acids and above all a stimulated antioxidant defense system and this might be due to its high content o |
