  2. Rats were fed the SD-, inulin-supplemented SD-, HF-, or inulin-supplemented HF diets for 1 week, continued to consume each diet containing fluvastatin (0 or 4 mg/kg/day) for another 2 weeks, and then sacrificed. Relative levels were expressed by taking the control values obtained from SD-diet-fed rats as 1.00. Values are the means ± S.E. of 4 determinations in each group.
