MethodsThe atherosclerosis model in rats was set up by high fat diet in combination with blood vessel wall calcium overload and endothelial injury.Bloodfat levels(TC，TG，LDLHDLC and AI)in serum were measured by ultraviolet spectrophotometer.The rats were sacrificed and the aorta, heart, liver and renal were collected for pathological changes. ResultsAlfalfa extract of total saponins could significantly decrease the contents of serum TC，TG , AI and LDL，and reduce the score of pathological changes of aorta, heart, liver and renal，while the level of HDL alfalfa extract could significantly reduce the incidence of AS lesions, alleviate the degree of luminal obstruction, compared with the model group,there was significant difference.ConclusionThe results indicate that alfalfa extract of total saponins can inhibit experimental hyperlipidemia,and prevent the formation of atherosclerosis. 　　Key words： Total saponins of alfalfa extract; Atherosclerosis; Antiatherosclerotic 　　苜蓿为豆科植物紫苜蓿Medicago sativa L.或南苜蓿Medicago hispida Gaertn.的全草，是多年生草本植物。性味：苦，平，主要功能为“清脾胃、利大小肠，下膀胱结石”。《本草纲目》记载苜蓿“安中利入，可久食。利五脏、轻身健人。”民间常有“用饲牛草，嫩时人兼食之”之说。在我国中部、西部、华北广大地区，人们常摘苜蓿嫩草入菜。自古以来，苜蓿既可以作为食物入菜充饥，又可以作为药物以疗疾患。苜蓿总皂苷提取物不仅对于高脂血症有治疗作用，且由于毒性低微，还可以作为中老年人长期使用的保健品。苜蓿提取物在防治血脂代谢紊乱和抗AS方面有其独到之处[1]。一般降胆固醇制剂的作用部位在肝脏，是当胆固醇通过胃肠道吸收进入血液达到肝脏后才起作用。而苜蓿提取物降胆固醇的机理是在胃部阻止外源性胆固醇在胃肠道吸收，同时促进内源性胆固醇和胆汁的排泄，使血清磷脂浓度降低，血浆蛋白在体内分布正常，并能有效地控制血浆胆固醇和甘油三酯，从而避
