Abstract
Many scholars assume that industry meddles in scientific research in order to defend their products. But this article shows that industry meddling in science can have a variety of consequences. American food manufacturers long denied that trans fats were associated with disease. Academic scientists, government scientists, and activists in fact endorsed trans fats as a healthier alternative to saturated fats. But in 1990, a high-profile study showed that trans fats increased risk factors for heart disease more than saturated fats did. Industry funded a U.S. Department of Agriculture study that they hoped would exonerate trans fats. But the industry-funded U.S. Department of Agriculture study also indicated that trans fats increased risk factors for heart disease more than saturated fats. Industry quickly began developing trans fat alternatives. This confirms that corporations get involved in science in order to defend their products. But involvement in science can be the very means by which corporations persuade themselves to change their products.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of individual dietary fatty acids on emerging risk factors for cardiovascular disease that are associated with subclinical inflammation is unknown. OBJECTIVE The goal was to evaluate the role of dietary fat and specific fatty acids, especially trans fatty acids, in altering concentrations of markers of inflammation in humans fed controlled diets. DESIGN In a randomized crossover design, 50 men consumed controlled diets for 5 wk that provided 15% of energy from protein, 39% of energy from fat, and 46% of energy from carbohydrate. Eight percent of fat or fatty acids was replaced across diets with the following: cholesterol, oleic acid, trans fatty acids (TFAs), stearic acid (STE), TFA+STE (4% of energy each), and 12:0-16:0 saturated fatty acids (LMP). RESULTS Fibrinogen concentrations were higher after consumption of the diet enriched in stearic acid than after consumption of the carbohydrate diet. C-reactive protein concentrations were higher after consumption of the TFA diet than after consumption of the carbohydrate diet, but were not significantly different after consumption of the TFA and TFA+STE diets than after consumption of the LMP diet. Interleukin 6 concentrations were lower after consumption of the oleic acid diet than after consumption of the LMP, TFA, and STE diets. E-selectin concentrations were higher after consumption of the TFA diet than after consumption of the carbohydrate diet. Consumption of the TFA but not the TFA+STE diet resulted in higher E-selectin concentrations than did the LMP diet. CONCLUSIONS These data provide evidence that dietary fatty acids can modulate markers of inflammation. Although stearic acid minimally affects LDL cholesterol, it does appear to increase fibrinogen concentrations.

Abstract
Saturated vegetable oils (coconut, palm, and palm kernel oil) containing predominantly saturated fatty acids, lauric (12:0) or myristic (14:0 and palmitic (16:0), raise plasma total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in animals and humans, presumably by decreasing LDL receptor activity and/or increasing LDL-C production rate. Although stearic acid (18:0) is chemically a saturated fatty acid, both human and animal studies suggest it is biologically neutral (neither raising nor lowering) blood cholesterol levels. Although earlier studies indicated that medium chain fatty acids (8:0-10:0) were also thought to be neutral, more recent studies in animals and humans suggest otherwise. Unsaturated vegetable oils such as corn, soybean, olive, and canola oil, by virtue of their predominant levels of either linoleic acid (18:2) or oleic acid (18:1), are hypocholesterolemic, probably as a result of their ability to upregulate LDL receptor activity and/or decrease LDL-C production rate. Whether trans fatty acids such as trans oleate (t18:1), in hydrogenated products such as margarine, are hypercholesterolemic remains controversial. Studies in humans suggest that their cholesterol-raising potential falls between the native nonhydrogenated vegetable oil and the more saturated dairy products such as butter. Assessment of the magnitude of the cholesterolemic response of trans 18:1 is difficult because in most diet studies its addition is often at the expense of cholesterol-lowering unsaturated fatty acids, making an independent evaluation almost impossible.

Abstract
Dietary fat quality and quantity significantly affect the metabolism of all the plasma lipoproteins and probably constitute the most significant dietary determinants of plasma lipoprotein levels. Since the major role of the plasma lipoproteins is the transport of exogenous and endogenous fat, this would be expected of a highly regulated, metabolically homeostatic system. The data clearly show that dietary fat saturation affects all aspects of lipoprotein metabolism, from synthesis to intravascular remodeling and exchanges to receptor-mediated and nonspecific catabolism. The experimental data regarding dietary fatty acid effects on lipoprotein metabolism are complicated and at times contradictory due to the large degree of metabolic heterogeneity in the population, which, when coupled with the known abnormalities of lipoprotein metabolism associated with certain types of hyperlipoproteinemia, can present responses from A to Z. It is clear that the same dietary pattern has different effects in different individuals and that complicating factors of individuality raise some concerns regarding generalized dietary recommendations. As new knowledge of the role of dietary factors and CVD risk develops, and our abilities to characterize the individual patient's response to dietary interventions become more refined, it may be possible to specify dietary fat intervention from a patient-oriented concept rather than a single all-purpose diet approach. Thus it would be possible to design dietary interventions to match patient needs and gain both efficacy and compliance. With the spectrum of approaches possible--low fat, moderate fat with MUFA, n-3 PUFA, etc.--we should be able to approach dietary interventions to reduce CVD risk at both a population-based level and a patient-specific level. There remains much to learn regarding the effects of dietary fatty acids on the synthesis, intravascular modifications, and eventual catabolism of the plasma lipoproteins. The area of lipoprotein metabolism in health and disease, of its modifications by diets and drugs, and of the contributions of genetic heterogeneity to these processes is one of notable advances over the past two decades and continues to be an area of intense investigation.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of trans fatty acids on plasma lipid levels and systolic blood pressure, hydrogenated corn oil was fed to SHRSP (stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats) and WKY (Wistar-Kyoto) rats for 30 days. Significantly lower systolic blood pressure and plasma total cholesterol were observed in SHRSP rats fed trans fatty acids when compared with rats fed cis fatty acids from olive oil. In addition, higher HDL cholesterol and lower VLDL plus chylomicron cholesterol levels were found in SHRSP rats fed trans fatty acids. Although no significant changes of systolic blood pressure and plasma total cholesterol levels were observed in WKY rats after trans fatty acids treatment, WKY rats fed trans fatty acids had lower plasma LDL cholesterol and higher HDL cholesterol levels. In addition, platelet aggregation induced by collagen was decreased in WKY rats fed trans fatty acids. It is interesting that trans fatty acids increased the activity of plasma lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) in both SHRSP and WKY rats. The observed influence of trans fatty acids on plasma lipid levels, systolic blood pressure and platelet aggregation suggests that trans fatty acids might prevent thrombotic disorders in SHRSP rats.

Abstract
Consumption of trans-fatty acids increased markedly during this century due to the widespread use of partially hydrogenated fats. A sensitive analytical method was developed which enables the precise determination of 7 trans-isomers in small sample volumes. With this method we documented the materno-fetal transfer of trans-fatty acids across the human placenta. The content in human milk depends on maternal diet and is lower in Germany than in the Sudan. The distribution in fore- and hind-milk, in milk fat fractions and within the triglyceride molecule was determined. The content of trans-fatty acids is lower in commercial and home-made infant formulae than in human milk, although there is a certain batch to batch variation in formulae. Infants absorb dietary trans-isomers and incorporate them into endogenous lipids, subcutaneous tissue and cell membranes. Trans-fatty acids in plasma lipids are significantly higher in infants fed human milk than in those fed formulae. African children have a lower exposure than Germans. The relative contribution of trans-octadecenoic acid is lower in plasma sterol esters than in triglycerides and phospholipids, pointing to a negative selectivity of plasmatic cholesterol esterification with this fatty acid. Thus, a high supply of trans-octadecenoic acid might have negative effects on the cholesterol levels. In premature infants we found an inverse correlation between trans-fatty acid exposure and birthweight, thus interference with intrauterine growth appears possible. A possible causative factor could be impaired biosynthesis of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids by trans-isomers, for which we found strong indications. The results of our investigations the question whether the consumption of trans-fatty acids in pregnant and lactating women and in infants is nutritionally safe.

Abstract
Vervet monkeys ( Ceropithecus aethiops pygerethrus ) were placed on semipurified diets containing 14% fat of which 3.2 or 6.0% was present as trans-unsaturated fatty acid (t-FA). Two groups were fed the high and low levels of t-FA for a year and two others were fed t-FA for 6 months and then returned to the control diet for 6 months more. One other group was fed the control diet for a year. The control diet contained 14% fat which was a mixture of 72% olive oil and 28% corn oil. There were no significant differences in weight gain. Monkeys fed 6% t-FA or control diets for one year had lowest liver weights. Serum cholesterol and triglycerides in monkeys fed 3.2% t-FA for one year were 134 and 55 mg/dl, respectively; in monkeys returned to control diet after 6 months on 6% t-FA the values were 146 and 50 g/dl. Serum and triglyceride levels for the other 3 groups were 166 +/- 2 and 70 +/- 2 mg/dl. Liver cholesterol levels ranged from 4.0 mg/g (3.2% t-FA) to 4.7 mg/g (control) and 4.8 mg/g (6% t-FA). Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) activity was 59.0 microM/h for controls and ranged from 52.4 microM/h (3.2% t-FA) to 73.4 microM/h (6% t-FA). Cholesterol synthesis by liver slices was not affected by diet when the substrate was acetate. When mevalonate was used, the monkeys fed either level of t-FA for 12 months exhibited greatly reduced (about 80%) cholesterogenesis. The levels of t-FA in serum and liver reflected the amount in the diet. After being returned to control diet levels of t-FA in serum and liver of monkeys (fed 3.2% t-FA) fell by 97 and 94%, respectively, and those in serum and liver of monkeys fed 6% t-FA fell by 65 and 91%. There were no significant differences in aortic atherosclerosis or arteriosclerosis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Female Wistar rats were fed a fat-free diet containing either 5% partially hydrogenated corn oil (52.2% elaidate) or 5% oleic acid (67% oleate) with 8.6% linoleate providing 1% of calories 2 weeks before mating and were maintained on this diet throughout pregnancy and lactation. Fatty acid analysis of the developing organs as well as beta-oxidation by heart homogenates with [1-14C]palmitate, [1-14C]elaidate and [1-14C]oleate of the developing male and female progeny were determined and compared with age-matched controls on a stock diet. Results show that irrespective of the cis and trans 18:1 in the diet, the maternal plasma at term contained mostly cis 18:1, with 5% trans for the rats on the trans diet. The placenta and fetal liver contained 40 and 60% less trans, respectively, than did the maternal plasma. trans 18:1 was not detected in fetal brain or heart. Regardless of diet or sex, the order of preference for the heart was palmitate greater than elaidate greater than oleate. There was an increase in the rate of beta-oxidation of all the substrates, especially in the females on the trans diet, suggesting a stimulation of one or more of the enzymes involved. Above all, the myocardium showed a unique capacity to retain n-6 and n-3 fatty acids when the levels of these decreased in the serum.

Abstract
The preferential distribution of the relatively nonpolar pesticide chlordecone (CD) to liver rather than to fat tissues in humans suggests that it may be transported in plasma differently from other organochlorine pesticides. The plasma binding of [14C] CD was investigated in vitro in human, rat, and pig plasma and in vivo in rat plasma. Protein and lipoprotein fractions were separated by serial ultracentrifugation. Heparin-manganese precipitation and agarose gel electrophoresis were also carried out to determine whether separation techniques altered CD binding to plasma components. In human plasma, the distribution of [14C] CD among proteins and high density, low density, and very low density lipoproteins (HDL, LDL, and VLDL) was 46, 30, 20, and 6%, respectively. The distribution of cholesterol in the same plasma fractions was 4, 20, 63, and 7%, respectively. In the pig and rat the order of binding was similar to that in humans, with protein greater than or equal to HDL greater than LDL greater than or equal to VLDL. Separation by heparin-Mn precipitation confirmed the results obtained by ultracentrifugation. The distribution of [14C] CD in rat lipoprotein was similar whether the CD was administered in vivo or incubated with plasma in vitro, with approximately 80% bound to HDL, 11% to LDL, and 9% to VLDL in either case. Agarose gel electrophoresis of plasma-bound [14C] CD indicated that albumin was the major component of the protein fraction responsible for CD binding. Preferential binding of CD by albumin and HDL may explain its unusual tissue distribution compared to other organochlorine pesticides such as aldrin and dieldrin, which bind preferentially to VLDL and LDL and distribute preferentially to fat tissues.

Abstract
Yorkshire (lean) and Ossabaw (obese) swine ca. one year of age were used to characterize the quantity and composition of plasma lipoproteins in animals with markedly different adiposity. While lean swine weighted more (175 vs 88 kg for obese), they had less backfat than obese swine (2.64 vs 5.97 cm; P < 0.05). Fasting plasma triacylglycerol (Tg) and cholesterol (CH) levels were elevated in obese swine. Swine plasma lipoproteins were fractionated into very low density lipoprotein (VLDL; d < 1.006), low density lipoprotein (LDL; d = 1.019-1.063), low density lipoprotein (LDL; d = 1.063-1.09), and high density lipoprotein (HDL; d = 1.09-1.21) by density ultracentrifugation. Obese VLDL-Tg, CH and protein (Pr) were elevated more than 2-fold. VLDL from obese swine were 2-fold larger than VLDL from lean swine. No alterations in LDL or LDL composition were observed. HDL-Tg, CH. Pr and phospholipid levels were significantly higher in obese swine. Plasma and VLDL-Tg levels were highly correlated with backfat thickness (r = 0.67 and r = 0.73, respectively). There was a positive correlation between adiposity and HDL-CH as well as VLDL-Tg and HDL-CH. These data indicate that (a) there are marked alterations in swine plasma lipoprotein composition between lean and obese swine; (b) that swine plasma lipoprotein levels may be useful parameters in estimating body composition; and (c) that HDL-CH is positively correlated with adiposity in swine.

Abstract
The monolayer technique has been used to study the interaction of lipids with plasma apolipoproteins. Apolipoprotein C-II and C-III from human very low density lipoproteins, apolipoprotein A-I from human high density lipoproteins and arginine-rich protein from swine very low density lipoproteins were studied. The injection of each apoprotein underneath a monolayer of egg phosphatidy[14C]choline at 20 mN/m caused an increase in surface pressure to approximately 30 mN/m. With apolipoprotein C-II and apolipoprotein C-III there was a decrease in surface radioactivity indicating that the apoproteins were removing phospholipid from the interface; the removal of phospholipid was specific for apolipoprotein C-II and apolipoprotein C-III. Although there was a removal of phospholipid from the monolayer, the surface pressure remained constant and was due to the accumulation of apoprotein at the interface. The rate of surface radioactivity decrease was a function of protein concentration, required lipid in a fluid state and, of the lipids tested, was specific for phosphatidylcholine. Cholesterol and phosphatidylinositol were not removed from the interface. The addition of 33 mol% cholesterol to the phosphatidylcholine monolayer did not affect the removal of phospholipids by apolipoprotein C-III. The addition of phospholipid liposomes to the subphase greatly facilitated the apolipoprotein C-II-mediated removal of phospholipid from the interface. Although apolipoprotein A-I and arginine-rich protein gave surface pressure increases, phospholipid was only slightly removed fromthe interface by the addition of liposomes. Based on these findings, we conclude that the apolipoproteins C interact specifically with phosphatidylcholine at the interface. This interaction is important as it relates to the transfer of the apolipoproteins C and phospholipids from very low density lipoproteins to other plasma lipoproteins. The addition of human plasma high density lipoproteins or very low density lipoproteins to the subphase increased the apolipoprotein C-mediated removal of phosphatidyl[14C]choline from the interface 3--4 fold. Low density lipoproteins did not affect the rate of decrease. During lipolysis of very low density lipoproteins to the subphase increased the apolipoprotein C-mediated removal of with the lipid monolayer. Lipolysis experiments were performed in a monolayer trough containing a surface film of egg phosphatidyl[14C]choline and a subphase of very low density lipoproteins and bovine serum albumin. Lipolysis was initiated by the addition of purified milk lipoprotein lipase to the subphase. As a result of lipolysis, there was a decrease in surface radioactivity of phosphatidylcholine. The pre-addition of high density lipoproteins decreased the rate of decrease in surface radioactivity...
