摘　　要：The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of squalene (SQ) on plasma and hepatic lipid levels of obese/diabetic KK-Ay mice and wild-type C57BL/6J mice. SQ supplementation significantly increased the HDL cholesterol of KK-Ay mice, which was paralleled with no significant difference in the total and non-HDL cholesterol levels. The increase in HDL cholesterol was also found in the plasma of normal C57BL/6J mice, but the difference was not significant. SQ administration significantly increased neutral lipids (NL) in the liver of KK-Ay mice, while no significant difference was observed in the polar lipids and the total cholesterol levels. The increase in NL was primarily due to the increase in TAG. However, the cholesterol level significantly increased due to SQ intake in the liver of C57BL/6J mice, while no significant difference was found in other lipid levels. The present study suggests that SQ may effectively increase HDL cholesterol level, an important anti-atherosclerotic factor, especially in subjects with metabolic disorders.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of squalene (SQ) on plasma and hepatic lipid levels of obese/diabetic KK-Ay mice and wild-type C57BL/6J mice.
