May 2026 in “Global Translational Medicine” The study examined the effects of ethanol extract of Syzygium aromaticum (clove) leaves on lipid profiles and body weight in testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) rats. Thirty-six rats were divided into six groups, including controls and various treatment groups with clove extract and finasteride. Over 28 days, significant decreases in triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, and very low-density lipoprotein were observed in the clove-treated groups compared to the BPH control. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased significantly in the treatment groups. Additionally, body weight increased in the treatment groups. These results suggest that clove leaf extract has anti-hyperlipidemic effects and may influence body weight by enhancing metabolic activity in BPH conditions.
