Figure 1

Effects of the two NS lactobacillus strains on serum cholesterol in rats fed a high cholesterol diet. (A) Serum total cholesterol content; (B) Serum HDL-C and LDL-C; (C) Atherogenic indexes of the rats, TC/HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios. The data are shown as the mean ± standard deviation. Control: normal diet; HC: high cholesterol diet; HC + NS5: high cholesterol diet + Lactobacillus plantarum NS5; HC + NS12: high-cholesterol diet + Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus NS12. a,b,c Mean values in each panel with different superscript letters differ significantly (p < 0.05).
