Research Abstract |
We used the luciferase plasmid containing the cholesterol transporter, intestinal ABCA1 gene promoter to clarify the molecular mechanism of the inhibition of intestinal cholesterol absorption by lactostatin in Caco-2 cells. Our results suggested that PPAR/LXR responsive element related to the suppression of cholesterol absorption by lactostatin in Caco-2 cells. An oleosin having a hypocholesterolemic action was investigated to clarify the active sequence of its induced a hypocholesterolemic action by an exhaustive analysis using a peptide array. We found two novel bile acid binding peptides. Two novel bile acid binding peptides exhibited the greater inhibition of micellar solubility of cholesterol in vitro compared with a bile acid binding peptide VAWWMY as a positive control. We found that QEK derived from soybean beta-conglycinin alpha prime subunit exhibited the significant increase in CYP7A1 mRNA levels compared to the control group in HepG2 cells.
