Cholesterol Metabolism
Blood Lipoproteins
1. Triacyglycerol hydrolysis
- TAG are acted upon by pancreatic lipase
and removes FA at carbon 1 and 3
- products = 2-monoacylglycerol + FA
2. Cholesteryl ester degradation
- Cholesterol esterase
- Products: Cholesterol + FA
3. Phospholipids degradation
- phospholipase A2
- products: lysophospholipid + FA

Conclusions
Cholesterol balance is regulated by both synthesis
and absorption
Inhibition of cholesterol absorption may be
INSTANT
DEATH !
Stress,
Smoking,
Lack of exercise,
Poor nutrition
and of course,
Genetics
all contribute to
HEART DISEASE!
But
the real culprit is,
HIGH
CHOLESTEROL!
Cholesterol is everywhere

Apoproteins of lipoproteins
Functions of PPAR
PPAR gamma plays a critical role in the regulation of
cholesterol homeostasis by
controlling the expression of a network of genes that
mediate
cholesterol efflux from cells
Responsible for degeneration of ABC-I, cholesterol
transporter from the cells to HDL-3
transport in plasma
Inhibits production of apolipoprotein & C3 which
destroys Apo-B (ligand that binds LDL to its
receptors) and LDL accumulates
Apo-B ligand function can also be destroyed y
oxidation of the protein
