Pattern of lipid profiles in cardiovascular tissues of hysterectomized albino rats.
Heart, dorsal aorta and plasma significantly accumulated the lipid components such as triacylglycerol, cholesterol and glycerol in two months period of hysterectomy which may lead to the development of cardiovascular disorders. Administration of PGF2 alpha decreased the lipid fractions of cardiovascular tissues probably due to luteolysis and ovarian activation.
