Antihyperlipidemic and Antioxidant Effects of Extract in High-Fat Diet-Fed Rats.

The present study explored the antihyperlipidemic potential of a standardized methanolic extract of () leaf (MEACL) in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed rats. The standardized MEACL was orally administered at different doses (250, 500, and 1000 mg/kg) to HFD-induced hyperlipidemic rats for five weeks. Serum lipid profile, body weight changes, body mass index (BMI), daily food intake, relative organ weight, and histology of the liver were evaluated.

Caffeoylquinic Acids Rich versus Poor Fractions of Gynura procumbens: Their Comparative Antihyperlipidemic and Antioxidant Potential.

Background: Ethanolic extract of G. procumbens leaves has been previously shown to possess antihyperlipidemic effects.

Objective: This study was designed to prepare caffeoylquinic acids rich and poor fractions of the ethanolic extract using resin column technology and compare their antihyperlipidemic and antioxidant potentials.
