[Effect of diets with a varying protein and vitamin D content on the lipid makeup of the liver and blood serum].

Separate and combined effect of D hypovitaminosis and poor protein diet on the parameters of lipid metabolism in the blood serum and liver was investigated experimentally in albino rats. Increased changes in the blood serum lipid metabolism parameters in combined action of the nutrients deficiency as compared with the effect of alimentary factors were demonstrated. The lipid changes in the liver of the test animals in simultaneous deficiency of protein and vitamin D were similar to those in protein deficiency.
