Abstract Background: The HMG-CoA inhibitor are used to control adverse cardiovascular event caused by Hypercholesterolemia and dyslipidaemia. The current study was aimed to evaluate the ability of phytoconstituents of an aqueous seed extract of Acacia senegal (L.) Willd to inhibit HMG-CoA reductase and regress the formation of atherosclerotic plaque. Methods: The chemical fingerprinting of the test extract was assessed by LC-MS. Consequently, the assessments of in-vitro, in-vivo, and in-silico were performed by following the standard methods.Results: The in-vitro assessment of the test extract revealed 74.1 % inhibition potential of HMG-CoA reductase. In-vivo evaluations of the test extract indicated that treated hypercholesterolemic rabbits exhibited a significant (𝑃 ≤ 0.001) ameliorations in the biomarker indices of the dyslipidaemia, such as the atherogenic index, Castelli risk index (I&II), atherogenic coefficient along with lipid profile. Concomitantly, significant reductions were observed in the atherosclerotic plaque area and antioxidants. The in-silico study of molecular docking shown interactions capabilities of key phytoconstituents of the test extract with target protein of HMG-CoA reductase which further validated by the molecular dynamics through potentail energy, NPT, NVT, RSMD and others. Subsequently, the ADMET analysis shown ideal druggability. Conclusion: The results indicate that phytoconstituents of an aqueous seed extract of Acacia senegal (L.) Willd. could inhibit HMG-CoA reductase and improve the levels of antioxidants activity that may reduce symptoms associated with hypercholesterolemia.
