Abstract:
Objective To observe the alteration of scavenger receptor class A types Ⅰand Ⅱ (SR-AⅠ/Ⅱ) gene knock-out on lipid metabolism in mice fed with high-fat diet, and explore the underlying mechanism. Method The SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out and wild-type male mice were fed with normal and high-fat diet for 12 w. Thereafter, the level of lipid metabolism (such as the levels of lipids in blood and liver) was detected with enzyme method or oil red O staining, and the expression of scavenger receptor class B typeⅠ(SR-BⅠ) and CD36 in liver was analyzed by RT-PCR. Results Under high-fat diet condition, as compared with wild-type mice, the levels of TG, TC, LDL and HDL in SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out mice were decreased at 3, 6, 12 w (P0.05). Conclusion The alteration of lipid metabolism induced by high-fat diet in SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out mice might be relative with the up-regulated SR-BⅠmRNA expression and the counter transport of peripheral lipids to liver.
