Protective Effect of Plant Sterols against Chemically Induced Colon Tumors in Rats

Robert F. Raicht, +4 more
- 01 Feb 1980 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that plant sterols may have a protective dietary action action to retard colon tumor formation and the beneficial effects of vegetarian diets may be enhanced because of the presence of these compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Cholic Acid Feeding on N-Methyl-N-nitrosourea-Induced Colon Tumors and Cell Kinetics in Rats

Bertram I. Cohen, +7 more
- 01 Mar 1980 - 
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute and chronic effect of dietary cholic acid on colonic epithelial cell proliferation.

Eleanor E. Deschner, +2 more
- 01 Jan 1981 - 
TL;DR: The enhanced manifestation of colonic neoplasia in MNU-induced rats consuming cholic acid appears related to the elevated levels of cell proliferation brought about in response to the deleterious action of the bile acid on the mucosa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sterol balance studies in the rat. Effects of dietary cholesterol and β-sitosterol on sterol balance and rate-limiting enzymes of sterol metabolism

Robert F. Raicht, +7 more
- 23 Jun 1975 - 
TL;DR: Measurements of the activities of the rate-limiting enzymes showed fair correlation with cholesterol-bile acid balance, and in beta-sitosterol-fed animals, the reductase was increased 2-fold and cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase was not significantly different from controls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sterol metabolism studies in the rat. Effects of primary bile acids (sodium taurochenodeoxycholate and sodium taurocholate) on sterol metabolism

Bertram I. Cohen, +5 more
- 01 Mar 1977 - 
TL;DR: Sterol metabolism studies using a combination of isotopic and chromatographic procedures were carried out in rats fed either a low-cholesterol stock diet or a stock diet containing 0.1% cholesterol, showing a decrease in acidic steroid synthesis, cholesterol turnover, and cholesterol balance, compared to controls.
