The influence of three different dietary fats (8%) and of endogenous lipid peroxidation with regard to cholesterol concentrations in liver mitochondria and microsomes and in serum has been investigated in the rat. Although the different diet fat used did not produce any effect on serum cholesterol, it was possible to show that each experimental diet differently influenced the microsomal and mitochondrial levels of cholesterol. The highest mitochondrial and microsomal cholesterol content was found in case of diet supplemented with virgin olive oil and the lowest with rectified olive oil. An endogenous oxidative stress induced by adriamycin was able to produce a clear decrease in microsomal and mitochondrial cholesterol level and a sharp increase in serum concentration in all three groups. However, dietary fats and adriamycin had no effect on the microsomal and mitochondrial membrane viscosity as detected by fluorescence polarization. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that mitochondrial and microsomal cholesterol can exchange with exogenous pools when phospholipid peroxidation occurs.

D008563 Membrane Lipids Lipids, predominantly phospholipids, cholesterol and small amounts of glycolipids found in membranes including cellular and intracellular membranes. These lipids may be arranged in bilayers in the membranes with integral proteins between the layers and peripheral proteins attached to the outside. Membrane lipids are required for active transport, several enzymatic activities and membrane formation.

D008862 Microsomes, Liver Closed vesicles of fragmented endoplasmic reticulum created when liver cells or tissue are disrupted by homogenization. They may be smooth or rough. Liver Microsomes,Liver Microsome,Microsome, Liver
D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.
