Cholesterol-Lowering Efficacy of Plant Sterols/Stanols Provided in Capsule and Tablet Formats: Results of a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the LDL-cholesterol-lowering effect of plant sterols/stanols as supplements was quantified using a random effect model and the weighted mean effect sizes for net differences in LDL concentrations were calculated.

Functional food product development.
Jim Smith,Edward Charter +1 more
TL;DR: The use of functional plant ingredients for the development of efficacious functional foods and the stability and release of encapsulated nutraceuticals and their applications are discussed.

Update on the Healthful Lipid Constituents of Commercially Important Tree Nuts
TL;DR: In most cases, total phytosterol contents were greater in the present study than reported in peer-reviewed journal papers and the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, which is attributed to total lipid extraction and the inclusion of steryl glucosides in the analysis.

Phytosterols-induced viscoelasticity of oleogels prepared by using monoglycerides.
Mohd Dona Bin Sintang,Mohd Dona Bin Sintang,Sabine Danthine,Allison Brown,Davy Van de Walle,Ashok R. Patel,Iris Tavernier,Tom Rimaux,Koen Dewettinck +8 more
TL;DR: This combination is inspired by nature as sterols (phytosterols) are natural component of lipid membrane whilst MGP has properties similar to phospholipids, which is beneficial for oil structuring, but also for the fields of biophysical and pharmaceutical.

Subcritical extraction of flaxseed oil with n-propane: composition and purity.
Ana Beatriz Zanqui,Damila Rodrigues de Morais,Claudia Marques da Silva,Jandyson M. Santos,Sandra Terezinha Marques Gomes,Jesuí Vergílio Visentainer,Marcos N. Eberlin,Lúcio Cardozo-Filho,Makoto Matsushita +8 more
TL;DR: Flaxseed oil obtained via subcritical n-propane fluid extraction (SubFE) was found to be up to 5 times more resistant to lipid oxidation as compared to the SEM oils and to be a promising alternative to conventional SEM.

A rapid method of total lipid extraction and purification.
E. G. Bligh,W. J. Dyer +1 more
TL;DR: The lipid decomposition studies in frozen fish have led to the development of a simple and rapid method for the extraction and purification of lipids from biological materials that has been applied to fish muscle and may easily be adapted to use with other tissues.

TL;DR: Dairy therapy remains the first line of treatment of high blood cholesterol, and drug therapy is reserved for patients who are considered to be at high risk for CHD, and the fundamental approach to treatment is comparable.

Accumulation of Dietary Cholesterol in Sitosterolemia Caused by Mutations in Adjacent ABC Transporters
Knut Erik Berge,Hui Tian,Gregory A. Graf,Liqing Yu,Nick V. Grishin,Joshua Schultz,Peter Kwiterovich,Bei Shan,Robert Barnes,Helen H. Hobbs +9 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that ABCG5 and ABCG8 normally cooperate to limit intestinal absorption and to promote biliary excretion of sterols, and that mutated forms of these transporters predispose to sterol accumulation and atherosclerosis.
