摘要:We estimated the effects of breast- and formula-feeding on cholesterol and bile acid metabolism for 1.5 years after weaning in 35 newborn baboons that were breast-fed (n = 12) or fed one of two formulas with high (n = 11) or low (n = 12) polyunsaturated/saturated (P/S) fatty acid composition. Infants were weaned at 15 weeks to a high cholesterol, saturated fat diet. Because formula P/S ratio did not affect any variable for 1.5 years after weaning, the data were averaged for the two formula groups. After weaning, serum cholesterol and lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations among the infant diet groups were not different until after 52 weeks of age. From 70 to 97 weeks of age, serum cholesterol and high density lipoprotein-2 (HDL2)-cholesterol (HDL2-C) concentrations were lower (P
