Popis: The present investigation aimed to improve the nutritional and healthy values and evaluate the influence of bread fortified with dried potato peels (BPP) on Triton X-100-induced hyperlipidemia in male albino rats. The findings demonstrated that BPP lowered hepatic triglycerides and total cholesterol while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C). BPP exhibited potential lipid-lowering and hepatoprotective actions that were generated by the reduction of oxidative damage and preservation of the non-enzymatic and enzymatic antioxidant systems compromised by hyperlipidemic condition. Furthermore, BPP considerably enhanced the mRNA expression of AMPKα (AMP-activated protein kinase-alpha), suppressed the expression of fatty acid synthase (FAS) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase alpha (ACCα), and decreased the mRNA expression of the adipogenic transcription factor SREBP-1c (sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c), which are essential regulators of hepatocyte lipid metabolism. A histopathological assessment of the liver confirmed the results. In conclusion, this investigation revealed a positive impact of bread fortified with BPP therapy in preventing hyperlipidemia.
