Plant sterol (PS) consumption decreases low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels; however, high variability of responsiveness of lipid levels to PS intervention has been observed. We hypothesized that common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes for the ATP binding cassette proteins G5 (ABCG5) and G8 (ABCG8), Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1), or other proteins of the cholesterol pathway, would underline inter-individual variations in response to PS. Twenty-six hyperlipidemic subjects completed a randomized trial of 3 PS phases and a control phase. Three non-responders were identified who failed on 3 consecutive occasions to decrease either total cholesterol or LDL-C level vs. control. It was observed that after 3 PS phases compared with a control phase, cholesterol absorption changed to a lesser degree (-7.7% +/- 10.8%) in the non-responders than in the top 3 responders (-22.1% +/- 8.8%); however, cholesterol synthesis rates did not differ between sub-groups. No common polymorphisms in ABCG8, ABCG5, or NPC1L1 were demonstrated between the 3 top responders and the non-responders. Yet, 1 non-responsive subject did demonstrate a rare SNP in NPC1L1. Results indicate PS intake did not decrease cholesterol absorption rates to the same degree in certain subjects, possibly clarifying the inter-individual variability in the cholesterol-lowering effect; hence, this work should be expanded.
