The effects of dietary oleic acid on cholesterol metabolism were investigated and compared with those of palmitic acid in hamsters. Addition of 5% oleic acid to a 0.1% cholesterol-supplemented diet decreased plasma total cholesterol, very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, increased hepatic LDL receptor activity, and decreased plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity in comparison with 0.1% cholesterol alone. In contrast, addition of 5% palmitic acid to a 0.1% cholesterol-supplemented diet increased total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol, increased plasma CETP activity, and suppressed hepatic LDL receptor activity to a greater extent than 0.1% cholesterol alone. Neither oleic acid nor palmitic acid altered hepatic microsomal 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase activity, but oleic acid increased hepatic microsomal cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase activity. These results suggest that dietary oleic acid inhibits the increases in total, VLDL-, and LDL-cholesterol induced by dietary cholesterol by preventing both LDL receptor suppression and increased CETP activity, whereas dietary palmitic acid augments the cholesterol-induced increases in total and LDL-cholesterol by both further suppression of LDL receptor activity and further stimulation of CETP activity.
