Author Type of Subject Dosage of Treatment Extraction Method Follow up
Duration
Findings Conclusion
Park et al., 2012 [39] Male Sprague Dawley rats fed with high-fat diet (HFD) 5% of total diet for 4 weeks Fleshed 4th week
  • Increased level of total cholesterol and triglyceride content in fecal.

  • Decreased level of total cholesterol and triglyceride content in serum.

  • Decreased level of LDL-cholesterol level.

Sweet potato extraction is an effective agent to enhance fecal lipid excretion.
Jawi et al., 2015 [40] Local Balinese male rabbits fed with high cholesterol diet 4 mL/kg/day for 60 days Aqueous 60th day
  • Decreased level of total cholesterol in serum.

  • Decreased level of MDA.

  • Decreased level of interleukin-1 (IL-1) in blood.

Sweet potato extract is able to reduce cholesterol content.
Kurata et al., 2017 [41] Male Sprague Dawley rats fed with HFD 0%, 1%, 3%, and 5% of total diet for 35 days freeze-dried powder 35th day
  • Decreased in body weight and food intake.

  • Decreased in tissue weight of kidney, liver, and adipose tissue.

  • Decreased level of triglyceride, total cholesterol, and glucose in plasma.

  • Increased level of HDL in plasma.

  • Increased level of antioxidant activity in blood.

I. batatas is able to stimulate lipid metabolism.
Nasoetion et al., 2019 [42] Broiler chicks fed with crude protein diet 25 mL/kg/day and 50 mL/kg/day for 35 days Aqueous Weekly for 35 days
  • Increased growth rate, feed intake and feed efficiency.

  • Decreased level of LDL, total cholesterol, and fat in blood and liver.

  • Increased level of HDL in blood and liver.

  • Decreased level of hepatic lipid metabolism.

Sweet potato extract is able to reduce fat deposition.
Nur et al., 2019 [43] Zebrafish (Danio rerio) fed with HFD 80 ppm, 120 ppm, and 160 ppm for 40 days Ethanol Weekly for 40 days
  • Increased growth rate, feed intake and feed efficiency.

  • Decreased level of glucose in blood.

  • Decreased level of total cholesterol in plasma.

  • Decreased level of Peroxisome proliferator- activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ).

Sweet potato extract is able to reduce fat deposition.
Heriwijaya et al., 2020 [44] White male Wister rats fed with high cholesterol diet 3 cc, 6 cc, and 9cc for 12 weeks Aqueous 12th week
  • Decreased level of LDL, triglyceride, and total cholesterol.

  • Increased level of HDL in blood.

Purple sweet potato leaf extract is able to reverse hyperlipidemia condition
Khairani et al., 2020 [45] Male Mus Musculus mice fed with HFD 0.3 mL/day, 0.5 mL/day, and 1.0 mL/day for 9 weeks Aqueous 9th week
  • Decreased level of cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL in blood.

  • Reduced weight of visceral fats and liver.

  • Inhibition in the elevation of overall body weight.

  • Increased in the lactic acid bacteria colony in gut.

0.3 mL/20 g/bw is the optimum dosage of the extract to exhibit maximum effect.
Ntchapda et al., 2021 [46] Male Wistar rats fed with HFD 400 mg/kg, 500 mg/kg, and 600 mg/kg for 4 weeks Aqueous 4th week
  • Decreased in body weight.

  • Increased level of feces excretion.

  • Decreased level of cholesterol, triglycerides, VLDL-c and LDL in blood.

  • Increased level of HDL in blood.

  • Decreased level of AST, ALT, glucose, and creatinine in serum.

I. batatas is able to reverse hyperlipidemia condition.
