The effect of dietary cholesterol on astaxanthin (Ax) absorption and transport in the plasma of Atlantic salmon was investigated. Under controlled conditions, three experimental diets, non-pigmented diet (NPD), NPD with 40 mg Ax kg(-1) , and NPD with 40 mg Ax kg(-1) and 2% cholesterol, were fed to juvenile salmon reared in sea water. After 12 weeks, blood was collected and plasma separated for analysis of plasma Ax and cholesterol content. In addition, plasma samples from each group of fish were fractionated into lipoproteins using a sucrose density gradient and ultracentrifugation. The apolipoprotein components of VLDL, LDL and HDL from each sample fraction were separated using SDS-PAGE. The addition of 2% cholesterol to the Ax-containing diet significantly increased the concentration of Ax and cholesterol in fish plasma. The protein-rich fraction was found to be the major carder of Ax in salmon plasma. Cholesterol supplementation significantly increased Ax in plasma and VLDL as well as increasing plasma cholesterol. The VLDL fraction showed the most significant change in fish fed diet supplemented with cholesterol resulting in higher levels of Ax in this lipoprotein. The results clearly show that dietary cholesterol had a significant effect on the Ax transport process in the blood. Crown Copyright (C) 2013 Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
