1 Rosiglitazone treatments significantly lowered the contents of total cholesterol and free cholesterol (P<0.05), decreased the expression of ACAT-1 (P<0.05), and increased SR-BI expression (P<0.05) in the foam cells in a dose-dependent manner.

2 CONCLUSION: Rosiglitazone can decrease the contents of total and free cholesterol, down-regulate ACAT-1 expression and up-regulate SR-BI expression in the foam cells produce the anti-atherosclerotic effect. Rosiglitazone acetyl-Coenzyme A acetyltransferase 1 Mus musculus
