Objectives: To investigate the effects of the extract mixture of alfalfa and perilla on lowering serum lipid, protecting liver and aortic wall in rats. Methods: Sixty SD rats were divided into six groups and were fed different diet. After seven or fourteen days, the rats were put to death and measured for serum lipids, cholesterol content of liver and aortic wall, and pathological change of the tissue. Results: There was a significant increase of serum TC, LDL-C, cholesterol content of liver and aortic wall in the high-fat fed rats. Under light microscope, there were lipid droplets and cholesterol crystal in liver of group high-fat. Compared with the group high-fat, the rats had a significant decrease of those measurements in serum or in tissue in the alfalfa and perilla group. Conclusions: The extract mixture of alfalfa and perilla could prevent the increase of serum TC, LDL-C, cholesterol content of liver and aortic wall in high-fat fed rats, and also prevent the fatty infiltration and cholesterol deposit of liver.
