Effects of hepatic LOX-1 expression on atherosclerosis. A, B Representative images of aorta obtained from the study groups stained with Oil red O (A). The percentage of the plaque area in the aorta is presented among the indicated groups (n = 7) (B). C, D Representative images of aortic root sections obtained from the study groups stained with Oil red O (C). The percentage of the plaque area in the aortic root is presented among the indicated groups (n = 7). D Values are expressed as mean ± SD. ***P < 0.001 compared with the control group. ###P < 0.001 compared with the eGFP group
