Three trials, each with 24 hens, were conducted to determine the effects of dietary cholesterol, caloric intake, and genotype on the synthesis, storage, and excretion of cholesterol in the laying hen. The two genotypes of birds used in this experiment had been divergently selected for high and low oxygen consumption and had been shown to differ significantly (P less than .01) in body weight gain and carcass lipid deposition from 0 to 4 weeks of age. The dietary treatment, administered for a 2-week period to birds in each genotype, consisted of two levels of dietary cholesterol (0 and 1% added) and two energy intakes (ad libitum and 75% ad libitum). The experimental design was a 2 X 2 X 2 factorial. One percent added cholesterol versus none supplemented produced a significant (P less than .01) decrease in available metabolizable energy and uptake of acetate into liver cholesterol while causing significant (P less than .01) increases in egg and liver cholesterol but not in plasma cholesterol. Restricting caloric intake, as compared to ad libitum feeding, resulted in significantly (P less than .01) decreased egg production and total amount of cholesterol excreted via the egg with significantly (P less than .05) increased plasma and liver cholesterol levels but no change in egg cholesterol concentration. Differences were significant (P less than .05) between the two genotypes in feed intake and hepatic cholesterol and lipid synthesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
