Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) contents were assayed by assay kits as described in the text. Values were mean ± SD ( = 3) and expressed in mmol/L. NRR, Notoginseng Radix Et Rhizome; NRR-A, steamed NRR; NRR-B, NRR heated with sand; NRR-C, NRR fried with sesame oil. NRR and its processed products were dissolved in 50% ethanol. indicates a significant difference compared with control group cells, and # indicates a significant difference compared with model group cells.
