The changes of total cholesterol levels in mice after administration of both types of diets were also evaluated. Methods: The modified strain C57BL/6J of mice with a deficiency of apolipoprotein E, which is prone to aterogenesis was used for this diploma thesis. Mice were divided into three groups. The first group was fed by standard diet (so-called "chow" diet) for a period of two months and the second two groups were fed by Western type diet for a period of two and four months. The levels of total cholesterol in the blood were biochemically determinated and then we statistically evaluated this levels in all groups. Immunohistochemical...
