BACKGROUND
The effect of various extracts (50% ethanolic) of Capparis decidua on lipid profile of streptozotocin diabetic rats was studied.
METHODS
The extract was administered to the diabetic models for 30days.
RESULTS
The extract produced a significant (p<0.05) dose-dependent decrease in the levels of total cholesterol (TC), Triacylglycerol (TG), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL cholesterol), with a significant increase in the level High-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C).
CONCLUSIONS
The extracts of Capparis decidua prove to have a hypolipidemic potential.
