Summary of hepatic low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) expression levels for each group of rats as determined at study completion by Western blotting. Control rats were fed a normal diet. Rats in the high cholesterol (HC) group were fed a high cholesterol diet. Rats in the FPS group were fed the same high cholesterol diet and were treated with FPS (224 mg/kg) daily. * indicates a statistically significant between groups difference (P < 0.05).
