Online published on 7 May, 2019. Abstract The aim of this work was to examine the microscopically alterations in the heart architecture & of albino rat & physiological aspects of lipid profile in relation with cholesterol diet. Ten male of albino rats were subdivided into two groups (n=5): group 1 was given 1 ml of normal saline & considered as control group(G1), while the second group treated with enriched-cholesterol nutriment once at a dosage of 1.5 mg/k g body weight extent to 8 weeks & considered as treated group(G2). The tissues of hearts & aortic were obtained & stained with H & E stain. Blood samples were withdrawn after starvation of the animals at night after the end of the experiment to study the following parameters: measurement the intensification of (T C), (T A G), (H D L), (L D L) & (V L D L). Result showed the presence of a significant increase (p < 0. 0 5) in the concentrations of TC, TAG, LDL, VLDL & significant decrease (p < 0.0 5) in the concentrations of HDL in processed group (G2).
