However, whether this effect persists in the long term is not known. Therefore, we examined in patients already on stable statin treatment the effects of 85 weeks of plant sterol and stanol ester consumption on the serum lipoprotein profile, cholesterol metabolism, and bile acid synthesis. For this, a double-blind randomised trial was designed in which fifty-four patients consumed a control margarine with no added plant sterols or stanols for 5 weeks (run-in period). For the next 85 weeks, seventeen subjects continued with the control margarine and the other two groups with either a plant sterol (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>18) or plant stanol (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>19) (2\u00b75\u00a0g\/d each) ester-enriched margarine. Blood was sampled at the end of the run-in period and every 20 weeks during the intervention period. Compared with the control group, plant sterol and stanol ester consumption reduced LDL-cholesterol by 0\u00b728\u00a0mmol\/l (or 8\u00b77\u00a0%;<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00\u00b708) and 0\u00b742\u00a0mmol\/l (13\u00b71\u00a0%;<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00\u00b7006) respectively after 85 weeks. No effects were found on plasma concentrations of oxysterols or 7\u03b1-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one, a bile acid synthesis marker. We conclude that long-term consumption of both plant sterol and stanol esters effectively lowered LDL-cholesterol concentrations in statin users.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0007114508966113","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,1]],"date-time":"2008-04-01T09:11:16Z","timestamp":1207041076000},"page":"937-941","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":58,"title":["Effects of long-term plant sterol or stanol ester consumption on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in subjects on statin treatment"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"100","author":[{"given":"Ari\u00ebnne de","family":"Jong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jogchum","family":"Plat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dieter","family":"L\u00fctjohann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ronald P.","family":"Mensink","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,11,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.285.19.2486"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"499","DOI":"10.1093\/clinchem\/18.6.499","article-title":"Estimation of the concentration of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in plasma, without use of the preparative ultracentrifuge","volume":"18","author":"Friedewald","year":"1972","journal-title":"Clin Chem"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ajcn\/71.4.908"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00365527809179806"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199511163332002"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.ejcn.1601598"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjcard.2005.03.017"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0025-6196(11)63144-3"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0021-9150(99)00261-0"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0091270006289851"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jn\/137.3.583"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1194\/jlr.M500272-JLR200"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0278-6915(99)00102-7"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref12","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1763","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-2275(20)41495-6","article-title":"Sterol absorption and sterol balance in phytosterolemia evaluated by deuterium-labeled sterols: effect of sitostanol treatment","volume":"36","author":"L\u00fctjohann","year":"1995","journal-title":"J Lipid Res"},{"key":"S0007114508966113_ref15","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1535","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-2275(20)36946-7","article-title":"Serum cholesterol, cholesterol precursors, and plant sterols in hypercholesterolemic subjects with different apoE phenotypes during dietary sitostanol ester treatment","volume":"34","author":"Vanhanen","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Lipid Res"}],"container-title":["British Journal of Nutrition"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0007114508966113","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,6]],"date-time":"2021-09-06T23:33:48Z","timestamp":1630971228000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0007114508966113\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2008,11]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2008,11]]}},"alternative-id":["S0007114508966113"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0007114508966113","relation":{},"ISSN":["0007-1145","1475-2662"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0007-1145","type":"print"},{"value":"1475-2662","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2008,11]]}}}
