This study explores the impact of kiwifruit consumption, specifically Actinidia arguta cultivar Geneva and Actinidia deliciosa cultivar Hayward, on cholesterol and lipid metabolism in rat liver. Methods: Rats were divided into groups: a 1% cholesterol control group (Ch), a 5% Geneva kiwifruit-supplemented group (ChGENE), and a 5% Hayward kiwifruit-supplemented group (ChHAYW). Gene expression was analyzed using Gene Spring v.14. Gene ontology, pathway analysis, miRNA, and transcription factor prediction were performed using DAVID, Reactome, and miRNet. In addition, we used Agilent Literature Search software to gain further insights. Results: Statistical analysis identified 72 genes in ChGENE-Ch and 2 genes in ChHAYW-Ch comparison. Key genes involved in cholesterol metabolism pathways, including PCSK9, SCD1, SLC27A5, HMGCR, and DHCR24, showed lower expression in the kiwifruit-supplemented groups. The genes mentioned above showed lower expression in the kiwifruit-supplemented group, probably contributing to the liver lipid level reduction. Further analysis identified miRNA-26a, miRNA-29a\/b\/c, miRNA-33a\/b, and miRNA-155 targeting hub genes. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that dietary supplementation with kiwifruit, particularly the Geneva cultivar, reduces fat accumulation in the liver of rats with hypercholesterolemia, likely through downregulation of critical genes involved in cholesterol metabolism. These studies highlight the potential of kiwifruit as a part of a dietary strategy to manage cholesterol levels.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu16233999","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,22]],"date-time":"2024-11-22T10:17:23Z","timestamp":1732270643000},"page":"3999","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Impact of Kiwifruit Consumption on Cholesterol Metabolism in Rat Liver: A Gene Expression Analysis in Induced Hypercholesterolemia"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6282-9103","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdolvahab Ebrahimpour","family":"Gorji","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiological Sciences, Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-776 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna","family":"Ciecierska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiological Sciences, Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-776 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hanna","family":"Leontowicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiological Sciences, Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-776 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3357-3126","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zahra","family":"Roudbari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Science, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Jiroft, Jiroft 78671-55311, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9175-7110","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tomasz","family":"Sadkowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiological Sciences, Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-776 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"221","article-title":"Molecular Pathways in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease","volume":"7","author":"Berlanga","year":"2014","journal-title":"Clin.
