Effects of 70% ethanolic extracts of yuja peel (YE) on biochemical parameters related to cholesterol metabolism. Experimental mice were fed normal diet, high-cholesterol-diet (HC), and HC supplemented with 1% (YL) or 5% (YH) YE for 10 weeks. Serum levels of (a); glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), (b); glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), (c); alanine phosphatase (ALP-S), (d); total cholesterol (TC), (e); low-density lipoprotein (LDL), (f); and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were measured, as described in materials and methods. Results are expressed as mean ± SE (n = 8). *p < 0.05 vs. ND; #p < 0.05 vs. HC
