Abstract
|
|
|
This study was performed to investigate effects of low fat diet and saturated fat supplementation on the function of the immune system.
Forty male BALB/c mice average-weighing 15 g were divided into two dietary groups : 0.7% safflower oil group and 4.3% beef tallow & 0.7% safflower oil group.
@ES The results are as follows:
@EN 1) Food intake, body weight, organ weight, agglutination test, differential white cell count and histological examinaiton of spleen were not different in two dietary groups during the experimental period.
2) Delayed-type hypersensitivity test of the mice fed 4.3% beef tallow & 0.7% safflower oil was significantly higher than that of the mice fed 0.7% safflower oil (α=0.05)
3) Plaque forming cell was significantly reduced at 10th week compared to 7th week in both groups (α=0.05). Although there was no significant difference between two groups. 0.7% safflower oil group showed slightly higher plaque forming cell
than
4.3%
beef tallow & 0.7% safflower oil group.
