Decrease in plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, cholesteryl ester transfer protein, and oxidized low-density lipoprotein by plant stanol ester-containing spread:: A randomized, placebo-controlled trial
TL;DR: Plant stanol ester-containing spread is efficacious in reducing plasma LDL-C, apoB, CETP, and Ox-LDL and that 2 g/d plant stanol is adequate for Japanese people is concluded.
Journal ArticleDOI
The baseline serum lipoprotein profile is related to plant stanol induced changes in serum lipoprotein cholesterol and triacylglycerol concentrations.
TL;DR: People with an unfavorable serum lipid and lipoprotein profile benefit even more of plant stanols than people with a more favorable profile.

Effects of low-fat stanol ester enriched margarines on concentrations of serum carotenoids in subjects with elevated serum cholesterol concentrations.
TL;DR: Low-fat stanol ester margarines appeared to have little effect on serum concentrations of α-, β- or α + β-carotene, or lycopene, and no significant changes were found in serum Lycopene or lyCopene/total cholesterol ratio in both experimental groups.

Importance of the dietary fat on the prevention and control of metabolic disturbances and cardiovascular disease
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed important topics regarding the lipids metabolism and correlate them with nutritional therapies that may contribute to the prevention and treatment of related diseases, and showed that dietary interventions may lower or even prevent the occurrence of several noncommunicable diseases.

TL;DR: In conclusion, inhibition of sterol (24)-reductase was achieved at physiologically relevant concentrations, and may represent an additional mechanism for the cholesterol-lowering action of phytosterols, and opens up the possibility of using certain (22)-unsaturated sterols as effective hypocholesterolaemic agents.
