New Zealand white rabbits showed large decreases in plasma cholesterol and phospholipid concentrations during the second half of pregnancy. All lipoproteins (very low density, low density, and high density) participated in the decrease. Very large decreases in plasma cholesterol concentrations were observed even when the animals were maintained on high cholesterol diets. Increases in plasma cholesterol concentrations, after the intravenous administration of Triton WR 1339, were at least as great in pregnant as in nonpregnant animals. It is concluded that the decrease in plasma cholesterol concentrations is not the result of impaired plasma lipoprotein production.
Supplementary key words cholesterol phospholipid triglyceride Triton WR 1339
