Microarray Analysis Identifies Novel Cholesterol Regulated Genes, Including Pcsk9 Which Regulates LDL Receptor Function and LDL Cholesterol Levels
<p>Precise regulation of cholesterol levels is necessary for survival of individual cells and the normal functioning of multicellular organisms. Many of the genes important in these processes are regulated at a transcriptional level by the sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) and …

The use of multiple measures, repeated feedback, goal setting, shaping, and nutrition education to lower serum cholesterol levels in males
Although the association between elevated serum cholesterol levels and cardiovascular risk has been known for many years, few studies, with freely living individuals have used a full complement of intervention strategies to attempt to alter practices associated with elevated serum cholesterol. Two …

Line characterization and evaluation of genetic parameters of serum cholesterol levels, activity, feed intake, growth and body moisture in selected and unselected lines of laboratory mice
Feed intake, growth, efficiency, and serum cholesterol levels (SCL) were recorded for 102 male mice, and voluntary physical activity and SCL were recorded for 113 male mice from lines selected for 22 generations for maximum 21- to 42-day gain (H), minimum 21- to 42-day gain (L), and a random-bred …
