Effect of all extractions on LDL-R gene expression: NBEF, NBWF, NYEF, NYWF, PNEF and PNWF (1 mg/ml each) were individually added to the cells. The expression of LDL-R in HepG2 cells was compared with that in the presence of 1 mg/ml simvastatin and 0.5% DMSO as positive and negative controls, respectively. Bars represent the mean ± SD of independent triplicate experiments. #p < 0.05 compared with the negative control *p < 0.05 compared with simvastatin
