Lagenaria siceraria ameliorates atheromatous lesions by modulating HMG–CoA reductase and lipoprotein lipase enzymes activity in hypercholesterolemic rats
Objective: To investigate the antiatherosclerotic potential of Lagenaria siceraria (L. siceraria) by calculating percentage plaque area in aorta and grade of atheromatous lesions modulated by HMG–CoA reductase enzyme and lipoprotein lipase enzymes levels in hyperlipidemic rats. Methods: Rats were di...
