Chitooligosaccharide is beneficial for inhibiting dyslipidemia and reducing atherosclerotic and hyperlipidemic risk. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cholesterol-regulating effects and potential mechanisms of Chitooligosaccharide tablets (CFTs) in high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemic rats. The results revealed that CFTs can regulate serum lipid levels in hyperlipidemic rats in a dosage-dependent manner. Synchronously, gene expressions related to cholesterol excretion were upregulated in a dosage-dependent manner, including cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), liver X receptor α (LXRA), peroxisome proliferation-activated receptor-α (PPARα) and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), whereas cholesterol synthetic gene expressions including 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) and sterol-responsive element binding protein-2 (SREBP2) were reduced. This work highlights that CFTs have potential as natural products to prevent and treat metabolic hyperlipidemia syndrome, probably due to the reduction of cholesterol biosynthesis and through cholesterol elimination; they also improve the pathological changes of liver tissue in rats, alleviate liver damage, maintain normal lipid metabolism in the liver, ameliorate hepatic glycolipid disorders and accelerate TC operation, and reduce blood lipid levels.

D008055 Lipids A generic term for fats and lipoids, the alcohol-ether-soluble constituents of protoplasm, which are insoluble in water. They comprise the fats, fatty oils, essential oils, waxes, phospholipids, glycolipids, sulfolipids, aminolipids, chromolipids (lipochromes), and fatty acids. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) Lipid

D009844 Oligosaccharides Carbohydrates consisting of between two (DISACCHARIDES) and ten MONOSACCHARIDES connected by either an alpha- or beta-glycosidic link. They are found throughout nature in both the free and bound form. Oligosaccharide
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D002686 Chitin A linear polysaccharide of beta-1->4 linked units of ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE. It is the second most abundant biopolymer on earth, found especially in INSECTS and FUNGI. When deacetylated it is called CHITOSAN.

Gene Action Regulation,Regulation of Gene Expression,Expression Regulation, Gene,Regulation, Gene Action,Regulation, Gene Expression
D000273 Adipose Tissue Specialized connective tissue composed of fat cells (ADIPOCYTES). It is the site of stored FATS, usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES. In mammals, there are two types of adipose tissue, the WHITE FAT and the BROWN FAT. Their relative distributions vary in different species with most adipose tissue being white.
