Postprandial Response After Intake of Meals With Different Fatty Acid Composition
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to understand more about how different fatty acids modulate postprandial lipid metabolism and inflammatory response.

Experimental: Familial hypercholesterolemia Subjects diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolemia receive in randomized order muffin with saturated fat (SFA muffin) and polyunsaturated fat (PUFA muffin) at baseline |
Dietary Supplement: SFA muffin
Muffin rich in saturated fat.
Dietary Supplement: PUFA muffin
Muffin rich in polyunsaturated fat.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in levels of circulating triglycerides [Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Changes in markers of lipid- and glucose metabolism [Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
Changes in levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, apolipoprotein (apo) B, apo A1, apo CIII, apo B48, lipoprotein (a), free fatty acids, total fatty acid composition, LDL-receptor-related protein with 11 ligand-binding repeats (LR11), HbA1c, glucose, insulin and troponin.
- Changes in circulating levels of inflammatory markers [Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
Changes in levels of inflammatory markers in circulation such as i.e. cytokines and hsCRP
- Changes in PBMC gene expression levels of markers of inflammation and lipid metabolism [Measured at baseline and 2, 4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
Changes in levels of markers of inflammation and lipid metabolism at PBMC gene expression level
- Changes in lipid classes and lipoprotein size [Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
- Changes in plasma and urine metabolomics [Measured in plasma at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal. Measured in urine at fasting state and during the 6 hour postprandial phase.]
Changes in metabolites such as glucose, lactate, pyruvate, citrate and amino acids will be measured in plasma and urine.
- Check DNA for single nuclear polymorphisms [Measured at baseline and 2,4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
- Changes in PBMC Whole genome transcriptomics [Measured at baseline and 4 and 6 hours after intake of test meal]
