Abstract
Summary1. Study of effect of protein on development of experimental atherosclerosis on blood lipids and lipoproteins, in underfed rabbits with supplementary cholesterol, was performed. 2. Cholesterol fed rabbits on a limited intake of standard laboratory food lost approximately one-fourth of their body weight. A marked degree of atherosclerosis, increased blood lipids and lipoproteins was produced. 3. Cholesterol-fed rabbits on a limited intake of a relatively high protein diet, who lost equivalent amounts of weight, developed approximately the same degree of atherosclerosis, increase in blood lipids and lipoproteins.
