Abstract
Feeding with a 3.5% histidine diet caused hypercholesterolemia, hepatomegaly and decreased lipid content in the liver of rats. The addition of 1.0% l-methionine to the 3.5% histidine diet caused increases in liver lipids and serum total cholesterol as compared with those in rats fed with the 3.5% histidine diet. The addition of 1.0% l-cystine to the 3.5% histidine diet caused an increase in serum total cholesterol compared with that in rats fed with the 3.5% histidine diet, but the addition of taurine had no effect on serum and liver lipids. The addition of 2.5% or 5.0% glycine to the 3.5% histidine diet decreased serum total and HDL cholesterol compared with that in rats fed with the 3.5% histidine diet.
