Abstract
⺠Two (FF1, FF2) fat subfractions of freshwater clam reduced cholesterol in rats. ⺠Both FF1 and FF2 up-regulated the hepatic gene expression of CYP7A1. ⺠FF1 is mainly sphingolipids, and FF2 are mainly triacylglycerols and sterol esters. ⺠This suggests the clam exert hypocholesterolaemic action through a novel manner.
