Linoleamides: A New Class of Hypocholesteremics

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 4))

Abstract

There are various cholesterol-lowering agents available for clinical use. However, most of them are reported to have certain disadvantages in dosage or in side effects. For example, linoleate (1), the agent most widely used and showing fewest side effects, is required in a large daily dose to obtain distinct effects on blood cholesterol level. These circumstances have urged us to perform a comprehensive search for more effective compounds for reducing blood lipids levels and preventing atheromatous changes with fewer adverse reactions.
