Fig. 4 — Protective effect of karela on changes in PK and PEPCK expression induced by hypercholesterolemia in liver. Hypercholesterolemic rats were administered karela for 4 consecutive weeks. Total RNA was extracted from liver tissues and the expressions of PK and PEPCK were analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis. Values are means ± SE of 10 rats. ^* P < 0.05 Vs control group; ^# P < 0.05 VS hypercholesterolemic group. Upper panels (a) are mRNA expression of examined genes. Lower columns (b) are densitometric analysis of gene expression for upper panels
