The degree of interaction between dietary protein and fat sources to modulate hepatic lipid metabolism was investigated. Male rats were fed diets containing either casein or soy protein isolate as the protein source and either palm or soy oil as the fat source. After 3 wk, the activity and mRNA expression of enzymes involved in hepatic fatty acid synthesis were significantly lower with soy protein than casein when palm oil was the fat source. The same values for the same enzymes were greatly lowered regardless of the protein source when fish oil was the fat source. Both enzymatic activity and mRNA expression for fatty acid oxidation were significantly stimulated by fish oil, but only the former was increased by soy protein. Although both soy protein and fish oil reduced serum lipid concentrations, they worked independently. In soy protein-fed rats, mRNA levels of key enzymes related to cholesterol and bile acid synthesis were decreased and increased, respectively, compared with levels in casein-fed animals. Instead, fish oil strongly induced the mRNA expression of biliary cholesterol transporters, ATP-binding cassette sub-family G, member 5 (ABCG5) and ATP-binding cassette sub-family G, member 8 (ABCG8). Therefore, dietary soy protein and fish oil generally exerted independent hypolipidemic actions in rats. However, the reduction of hepatic fatty acid synthesis caused by the simultaneous ingestion of soy protein and fish oil was smaller than their expected additive reduction, because fish oil strongly decreased the synthesis.
