Reciprocal Interference of Experimental Dyslipidemia and Food Allergy in the Evolution of Both Diseases

Table 2

Hepatic and cecal lipids of C57BL/6 (WT) or LDLr^−/− mice nonsensitized (OVA⁻) or sensitized (OVA⁺) with 10 μg of Ova at the beginning and 14th experimental day and receiving 20% egg white solution from 21st to 35th experimental days.

	C57BL/6		LDLr^−/−
	OVA^−	OVA^+	OVA^−	OVA^+
Liver
Total lipids (mg/g)	126 (15)	141 (9)	123 (7)	123 (9)
Cholesterol (mg/g)	6.4 (1.1)	7.4 (1.0)	7.1 (1.0)	7.0 (1.1)
Cecum
Total lipids (mg/g)	39.0 (5.4)	38.7 (9.5)	42.8 (10.1)	22.5 (4.5)
3-α-OH steroids (mg/g)	4.1 (0.4)	4.5 (0.5)	5.3 (0.8)	4.8 (0.6)

No significant differences were observed between OVA⁻ and OVA⁺ groups in the same strain (𝑛=11/group).
