Figure 2From: Simvastatin reduces atherogenesis and promotes the expression of hepatic genes associated with reverse cholesterol transport in apoE-knockout mice fed high-fat dietEffect of simvastatin on endogenous LCAT activity in plasma. LCAT activity was measured as the utilization rate of FC in native plasma. LCAT activity was expressed as nanomoles FC consumed per hr per ml plasma. Data are expressed as means ± SD (n = 10). * P < 0.05 versus model group.Back to article page
