Effect of Previous Dietary Intake on the Fatty Acid Composition of the Plasma Cholesterol Esters

BERNARD J. FAIRHURST M.D.1 and CHRISTINE WATERHOUSE M.D.1

1 From the Department of Medicine, The University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, Rochester, New York

A method to determine the individual cholesterol esters in the plasma is described. The cholesterol esters were determined in a group of patients under three dietary conditions, viz., low calorie, high carbohydrate and high fat diets. The significant finding was a fall in cholesterol linoleate levels after ingestion of the high carbohydrate diet. Possible explanations for the change are discussed. It is concluded that the plasma ester cholesterol is not a homogeneous compartment and that the individual cholesterol esters are handled differently by the body.
