The aim of the present study was, first, to investigate whether cholesterol (C) absorption, enhanced by cholesterol feeding, was related to synthesis of cholesterol, serum level of low density lipoprotein (LDL)-C, and receptor activity for LDL apolipoprotein (apo) B in healthy men. Secondly, we were interested in whether apolipoprotein E (apoE) phenotypes contributed to cholesterol and LDL apoB metabolism under these conditions. We studied 29 home-living men aged 55 +/- 1 (mean +/- SE) years on a low-fat, low cholesterol (208 +/- 13 mg/day) diet followed by a low-fat high cholesterol (878 +/- 38 mg/day) diet during 5 weeks. Cholesterol feeding increased total cholesterol, LDL-C, high density lipoprotein (HDL)-C, and LDL apoB levels from 10% to 13% (P less than 0.05) and bile acid production and cholesterol turnover by 16% (P less than 0.05), decreased the fractional catabolic rate (FCR) for LDL apoB by 10% (P less than 0.05) and cholesterol absorption efficiency by 8% (P less than 0.05), while cholesterol synthesis only tended to decrease. During the cholesterol feeding, LDL-C was positively related to apoB production rate and cholesterol absorption efficiency (P less than 0.05), and negatively related to bile acid and cholesterol synthesis (P less than 0.05) and FCR for LDL apoB, which, in turn, was negatively related to cholesterol absorption efficiency and positively to bile acid synthesis. ApoE phenotype was positively related to TC, LDL-C, and LDL apoB levels and negatively to FCR for LDL apoB. The increase of the LDL-C level by the high cholesterol intake was positively correlated with LDL-C on high cholesterol diet and apoE phenotypes, so that the increase was 7% in apoE2 (ns), 11% in apoE3 (P less than 0.05), and 18% in apoE4 (P less than 0.05); the increase of bile acid synthesis was significant only in subjects with apoE2. Moreover, the increase of LDL-C was positively related to the absolute amount of dietary cholesterol absorbed and negatively to FCR for LDL apoB. The findings suggest that the higher the LDL-C level, the higher is the absorption efficiency of cholesterol and production of LDL apoB, and the lower is the removal of LDL apoB and synthesis of both bile acids and cholesterol, and the more frequently the subjects had epsilon 4 allele. The nonresponsiveness to dietary cholesterol was dependent on low LDL-C level, apoE2 phenotype, and effective bile acid synthesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
