Hyperlipidemia is one of the key risk factors causing many chronic diseases, and lowering blood lipid levels can prevent many diseases. In this paper, a hyperlipidemic cell model of oleic acid (OA) induced hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2) was established using polyphenols extracted from Shanxi-aged vinegar (SAVEP). The effects of SAVEP on nuclear damage, mitochondrial membrane potential, apoptosis, cellular lipid deposition, and lipid metabolism protein expression in HepG2 hyperlipidemic cells were examined to investigate the lipid-lowering mechanism of SAVEP at the cellular level. The results showed that SAVEP could reduce the content of TC/TG index, repair the nuclear damage, reduce lipid accumulation and finally decrease the rate of apoptosis by up-regulating the expression of key proteins such as PPARα, LXRα, and ABCA1 in the process of lipid metabolism. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: In this thesis, the hypolipidemic activity of polyphenol extracts from Shanxi-aged vinegar was analyzed on the level of HepG2 cells. The hypolipidemic mechanism of oxidative stress, lipid metabolism and inflammatory stress was also elucidated. It provided a theoretical basis for the in-depth understanding of the hypolipidemic health effects of Shanxi-aged vinegar.
