^aEach value represents the mean of 6 rats ± S.E. (standard error). Values within a column followed by different letters are significantly different (P < 0.05) by SPSS Duncan. Where HDLc: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDLc: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; VLDL: very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
