Effect of saffron extract on plasma lipid profiles (mg/dl). (a) total lipid, (b) total cholesterol (TC), (c) triglycerides, (d) LDL-C, (e) HDL-C, in control (C), untreated diabetic rats (D), saffron (10 mg/kg/day)-treated diabetic (D + Sf1), saffron (20 mg/kg/day)-treated diabetic (D + Sf2) and saffron (40 mg/kg/day)-treated diabetic (D + Sf3) rats during 4 weeks of study (n = 9, for each group). Values are the mean ± SEM. Statistical significance for the difference between the data of the control group vs other groups: *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. Statistical significance for the difference between the data of untreated diabetes group vs treated groups: +p < 0.05; ++p < 0.01.
