This study examined the effects of dietary saturated and polyunsaturated fat on the chemical composition and metabolism of low density lipoproteins (LDL) in eight normal male subjects. T h e influence of these diets on fecal sterol excretion was also measured in four of the subjects. When compared with the saturated fat diet, the polyunsaturated diet lowered both plasma cholesterol (2396, P < 0.001) and triglyceride (14%, P < 0.001) levels. Sixty-seven percent of the reduction in the former lipid resulted from a fall in LDL cholesterol (23%, P < 0.001), although very low density (VLDL) and high density lipo-protein (HDL) cholesterol levels also fell (by 27% and 20% of their respective control value). These changes were accompanied by significant alterations in LDL composition. Specifically, during polyunsaturated fat feeding, the relative percentage cholesterol in the LDL fraction fell while that of phospholipid rose. There was no change in the percentage protein or triglyceride. T h e fatty acid components of LDL triglyceride, cholesteryl esters, and phos-pholipid were also affected by dietary fat saturation level. Overall, polyunsaturated fat feeding produced an enrichment in linoleate with reciprocal changes in palmitate, stearate, and oleate which affected triglycerides more than cholesteryl esters and phospholipids. T h e above changes in LDL composition were associated with alterations in the metabolism of LDL apoprotein (apoLDL). The polyunsaturated diet lowered plasma apoLDL by 13% (P < 0.05). This resulted from an increase in the fractional catabolic rate of LDL (whether determined by plasma decay curve analysis (P < 0.05) or urine/plasma radioactivity ratios (P < 0.001) without significant alteration of its corporeal distribution o r synthetic rate. T h e polyun-saturated fat diet did not cause a consistent change in fecal neutral or acidic steroid excretion. We conclude that the hypocholesterolemic action of polyunsaturated fat diets is effected by multiple mechanisms whose expression may vary from patient to patient. Taunton. Effects of saturated and polyunsaturated fat diets on the chemical composition and metabolism of low density lipoproteins in man. Supplementary key words fecal sterols. very low density lipoproteins. high density lipoproteins The hypocholesterolemic action of diets rich in polyunsaturated fats has been known for 25 years, but despite intensive studies (see bibliography in (l)), mechanisms for this effect remain obscure. Investigations of the influence of such diets on cholesterol balance in man have revealed several different patterns of response that derive in part from variations in methodology …
