Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of fenofibrate on the expression of scavenger receptor class B type I(SRBI) in adipose tissue and adipocytes of hypercholesterolemia rabbits.Methods Ten male New Zealand white rabbits were fed with high cholesterol diet for 8 weeks,and were randomly divided into two groups: high cholesterol group and treatment group.The rabbits in the high cholesterol group were maintained cholesterol diet for 4 weeks and those of the treatment group were fed with the same cholesterol diet supplemented with fenofibrate(30 mg/kg/day) for 4 weeks.Five rabbits in control group were fed with normal diet for 12 weeks.Subcutaneous adipose was collected for adipocytes culture.The expressions of SRBI mRNA in adipose tissue and adipocytes were evaluated by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results The serum levels of total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol were significantly higher in the high cholesterol group and treatment group than those of the control group(P0.05).The expressions of SRBI mRNA in adipose tissue and adipocytes were up-regulated in high cholesterol group compared with those of control group(P
