Hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine supplementation reduces hepatic lipid levels in mice fed a high-fat diet
The ability of the fatty acid composition of dietary phosphatidylcholine (PC) to affect hepatic
lipid levels was investigated in C57BL/6 mice (n= 8–10 per group) by feeding:(1) a high-fat
semi-purified diet (HF),(2) HF diet supplemented with 1.25 wt% soy PC (SPC),(3) HF with
1.25 wt% hydrogenated soy PC (SPCH),(4) HF with 1.25 wt% egg PC (EPC), and (5) HF with
1.25 wt% hydrogenated egg PC (EPCH). The polyunsaturated fatty acid content (C18: 2+
C18: 3+ C20: 4) of soy, egg and hydrogenated PC was 70%, 20% and 0%, respectively …
