Various physical fractions of the barley kernel were fed to one-day-old female and male chickens to determine their effect on hepatic beta-hydroxy-beta-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase and the lipogenic enzymes, acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACX), malic enzyme (ME), citrate-cleavage enzyme (CCE) and fatty acid synthetase (FAS) at the subcellular level. Significant inhibition (p less than 0.01) of cholesterol biosynthesis accompanied by significant decreases in plasma cholesterol concentrations and induction of fatty acid synthesis were found in diets based on pearled barley, barley pearlings and a high-protein barley flour (HPBF: aleurone and subaleurone layers of barley endosperm) separated from the pearlings when compared to corn. Lower weight gains in 1- to 4-week-old birds fed the high-protein barley flour were found to be the result of lower feed consumption; pair feeding of 12-week-old birds with diets based on corn and high-protein barley flour produced equal weight gains in both treatments and significant reductions in hepatic HMG-CoA reductase, plasma cholesterol and induction in several lipogenic enzymes in birds fed the high-protein barley flour. Substitutions of 5-20% high-protein barley flour for corn in a corn-based diet produced significant weight gains (p less than 0.01) of 10 to 20% in 2-week-old chickens, inhibited cholesterol biosynthesis by 45-65% and produced a 3-fold increase in a fatty acid synthetase. The results indicate that HPBF contains an inhibitor(s) of cholesterol biosynthesis and a growth factor(s) when compared to a corn-based diet.
