Excess lysine also prevented the decline in PC expected as the chick ages.

Deficiencies of lysine, arginine and total nitrogen similarly elevated PC, HDL cholesterol and PT. Excess lysine likewise elevated plasma lipids, but excess arginine lowered PC and elevated HDL cholesterol. An excess of a balanced amino acid mixture reduced PC and HDL cholesterol substantially below control levels, but omitting arginine from the excess mixture negated part of the hypocholesterolemic effect of excess nitrogen source. A similar omitting of lysine from the mixture did not negate the hypocholesterolemic properties of the amino acid mixture.","Effects of arginine deficiency and excess were studied in young pigs fed low fat, low cholesterol diets. Arginine deficiency reduced performance but had no effect on PC or HDL cholesterol. Severe arginine deficiency reduced plasma triglycerides somewhat. Excess dietary arginine (1% addition), on the other hand, was shown to reduce plasma cholesterol and to cause an increase in the percentage of total cholesterol in the HDL fraction. Plasma triglycerides were not affected by excess arginine.","Made available in DSpace on 2015-05-13T15:44:17Z (GMT).
