Figure 3

STG supplementation decreased serum lipid levels in rat fed a HC diet. The serum TC, TG, LDL-C, and HDL-C levels were detected after STG or simvastatin treatment for 4 or 8 weeks. TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; LDL-C, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, HDL-C, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol. P < 0.01 versus control group; P < 0.01 versus HC group. All data were shown as mean ± SD (n = 9 to 10).
