- Mice were fed with either normal or high-fat/cholesterol/bill salt (HFCB, 10/1/0.3%, w/w) diet without and with supplementation with the aqueous/ethanolic extract of Fructus Schisandrae chinensis (AqFSC/EtFSC) or fenofibrate at the indicated concentration for 13 days. The concentrations of AqFSC and EtFSC were based on crude herbal material. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL), and low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels were then measured. Values given are the men ± S.E.M., with n = 10. *Significantly different from the normal diet group (p < 0.05–0.001). †significantly different from the hypercholesterolemic mice (p < 0.05–0.001).
