Hepatic production of very low density lipoprotein, catabolism of low density lipoprotein, biliary lipid secretion, and bile salt synthesis in rats fed a bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) diet
Rats fed a bean diet develop a significant hypocholesterolemia. The catabolism of low density lipoprotein (LDL; d 1.019-1.063 g/ml) was studied in vivo and in vitro in the isolated perfused liver of rats fed either a casein or a bean diet. The clearance of LDL was significantly increased by 100% fro...
