The effects of boiled coffee, filtered coffee, and tea on serum lipoprotein lipids and apoproteins were compared in 42 middle-aged hypercholesterolemic subjects (21 men and 21 women). The subjects consumed the beverages, eight cups a day, in random order during successive 4-week periods with 2-week run-in intervals in a crossover design. The diet was kept unchanged. Statistically significant differences were found between the periods in serum total cholesterol (P less than .0001 ANOVA), LDL cholesterol (P less than .01), and apoprotein B (P less than .01) levels. All differences were due to significantly higher levels during boiled coffee as compared with filtered coffee and tea. No statistically significant differences were found between the filtered coffee and tea periods. There were no differences in serum VLDL cholesterol or triglyceride, HDL cholesterol, and apoprotein A-I concentrations between the periods. Consumption of boiled coffee thus increased the concentration of low density lipoprotein in the serum without affecting its lipid-protein composition. The effect seemed to be determined by the method of brewing.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008074 Lipoproteins Lipid-protein complexes involved in the transportation and metabolism of lipids in the body. They are spherical particles consisting of a hydrophobic core of TRIGLYCERIDES and CHOLESTEROL ESTERS surrounded by a layer of hydrophilic free CHOLESTEROL; PHOSPHOLIPIDS; and APOLIPOPROTEINS. Lipoproteins are classified by their varying buoyant density and sizes. Circulating Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein,Lipoproteins, Circulating
D008077 Lipoproteins, LDL A class of lipoproteins of small size (18-25 nm) and light (1.019-1.063 g/ml) particles with a core composed mainly of CHOLESTEROL ESTERS and smaller amounts of TRIGLYCERIDES. The surface monolayer consists mostly of PHOSPHOLIPIDS, a single copy of APOLIPOPROTEIN B-100, and free cholesterol molecules. The main LDL function is to transport cholesterol and cholesterol esters to extrahepatic tissues.
