Abstract: In present study, atherosclerotic animal model were replicated with high cholesterol feedstuff , and the expressions of estrogen receptor α and low-density lipoprotein receptor mRNA in heart and liver were studied by half quantitive RT-PCR, the rabbits oophorectomized and fed with normal feedstuff were used as control.The results showed:the two sorts of receptors expressed in heart and liver;in control group, the relative expression of ERα mRNA in the heart and liver were 0.43±0.12, 0.39±0.20,the relative expression of low-density lipoprotein receptor mRNA in the heart and liver were 0.27±0.05, 0.86±0.12; The relative expression of estrogen receptor and low-density lipoprotein receptor mRNA in the heart and liver of model rabbits were 0.29±0.03, 0.27±0.06 and 0.04±0.01, 0.17±0.02 respectively.
