ABSTRACT

Hyperlipidemia is considered to be one of the greatest risk factors contributing to the prevalence and severity of cardiovascular diseases. Hyperlipidemia was induced by poloxamer 407 (30% w/w in distilled cool water; 500 mg/kg, i.p). Prior to the administration of P-407, the rat of reference group were administered with atorvastatin (50 mg/kg p.o.) and finofibrate (FF 65 mg/kg p.o.) while test groups received 1 hr before dose (100 mg/kg p.o and 200 mg/kg p.o of each bio-fractions) of various bio-fractions (Benzene, Ethyl acetate, Methanol, Water) of methanolic extract of plant. Serum lipid profiles were investigated after 3, 6 and 24 hour of treatment. The result were found that ethyl acetate fractions of methanolic extract significantly reduced the serum levels of total cholesterol (TC) (p < 0.05), triglycerides (TG) (p < 0.001) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) (p < 0.001) as compare to the disease control rats after 6 h of treatment. After 24 h of treatment, the ethyl acetate fractions of extract induced a significant reduction in serum TC (p < 0.001), TG (p < 0.001), VLDL (p < 0.001), low density lipoprotein (LDL) (p < 0.05) and significant increase in high density lipoprotein (HDL) levels (p < 0.001), the benzene fractions of extract induced a significant reduction in serum TC (p < 0.05), TG (p < 0.01), VLDL (p < 0.01) and not significantly reduced LDL (p < 0.05) and not significant increase in HDL levels, when compared to disease control group. All these effects were comparable to those of the reference standard, atorvastatin and finofibrates.

Keywords: Antihyperlipidemia, Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Cholesterol, Poloxamer 407.
