Twenty five mice were divided into 5 groups, control negative group (CMC Na 1%), control positive group (glibenclamide suspension 0.65 mg/kg BW), and the treatment group was given 3 suspension of of n-hexane extract of maja leaves (dose of 200 mg/kg BW, 400 mg/kg BW, and 800 mg/kg BW) for 14 days. The result showed that the decrease of LDL level due to N-hexane extracts of maja leaves dose 200 mg/kg BW, 400 mg/kg BW, and 800 mg/kg BW was -10,54%; 9,07%; 31,69%; respectively.
