title: [Factors influencing the serum levels of cholesterol and beta-lipoproteins in starving rabbits].
abstract: The influence of starvation on the lipid metabolism was studied on male rabbits under usual conditions and in the presence of pyroxidine deficiency (4-deoxypyridoxine administration) and of thiamine (oxythiamine administration), and also in administration of neurotropic preparations (phenamine, seduxen). Starvation for 7 to 10 days led to increase of cholesterol and beta-lipoproteins level in the serum. Pyridoxine deficiency and phenamine administration caused a greater increase of cholesterol and especially or beta-lipoproteins. On the other hand, thiamine deficiency and seduxen administration limited an increase of cholesterol and beta-lipoproteins during hungry stress. Administration of aerovit for prophylactic purpose promoted a decrease of the metabolic shifts. The amount of cholesterol increased in the liver of hungry animals, especially after the phenamine administration and in the presence of pyridoxine deficiency; aerovit administration prevented increased cholesterol accumulation in the liver. The differences in the cholesterol level in the serum and and the liver can be explained by the changes of its biosynthesis during hungry stress.
