Abstract Background：Flaxseed peptide (FPs) showed serum cholesterol-lowering activity in SD rats fed a high-cholesterol diet, but the cholesterol-lowering amino acid sequences and mechanism of FPs were still unclear. Methods: FPs were separated via ultrafiltration, and the amino acid sequences of the selected fractions were determined via high-performance liquid chromatography- Electrospray Ionisation - Orbitrap- Mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-Orbitrap MS). These peptides then were synthesized by solid-phase synthesis (SPPS). IPPF with the highest CMSR was determined to exist in flaxseed protein by specific antibodies. The effects of IPPF on intestinal cholesterol absorption and hepatic cholesterol metabolism were investigated in Caco-2 cells and HepG2 cells.Results：1 kDa FP5 fraction had the highest cholesterol micelle solubility inhibition rate (CMSR) 72.39% compared with the other ultrafiltration fractions. Then Eleven peptides were identified from FP5. Ile-Pro-Pro-Phe (IPPF), with the highest CMSR 93.47%, was selected to research the cholesterol-lowering mechanism in Caco-2 and HepG2 cells. IPPF significantly reduces the amount of cholesterol transported in Caco2 cells and the amount of total cholesterol in HepG2 cells. IPPF significantly modulated the protein levels of NCP1L1 and ABCG5/8 in Caco2 cells and significantly reduced the mRNA levels of Srebp-2 and Hmgcr in HepG2 cells. Conclusion: IPPF inhibits cholesterol intestinal absorption through modulating the expression of cholesterol transporters in Caco-2 cells and reduces hepatic cholesterol synthesis through inhibiting the SREBP2-regulated mevalonate (HMGCR) pathway in HepG2 cells. IPPF is a new food-derived inhibitor of intestinal cholesterol absorption and hepatic cholesterol synthesis without side effects and provides a nutritional therapy component for hypercholesterolemia.

Formula-fed infants present higher cholesterol synthesis rates and lower circulating cholesterol during the postnatal feeding period compared to breast-fed infants, though the mechanisms underlying this phenotype are not fully understood. Typical infant formulas contain vegetable-based fats, inherently including phytosterols (PS), which are structurally similar to cholesterol and may interfere with their absorption. A seven-day old piglets model was used to test the inhibitory effects of PS on cholesterol absorption during postnatal feeding. Following feeding for 21 days with milk-based formulas containing PS and cholesterol levels resembling those in formulas or human-milk, apparent cholesterol digestibility was analyzed in ileal digesta, and cholesterol, PS, and cholesterol synthesis markers were analyzed in plasma and liver samples. Ileal cholesterol digestibility content was increased in the piglets fed low PS formulas and the rate of the hepatic cholesterol synthesis, as determined by the lathosterol-to-cholesterol ratios (L:C), was decreased in the piglets fed LP-formulas and corresponded to reduced nuclear expression of SREBP2 relative to those fed HP-formulas. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that PS in formula can inhibit cholesterol absorption and enhance cholesterol synthesis. Whether or not this leads to entrainment of cholesterol synthesis later in life via early programming awaits further research.
