Figure 6

HBSP reduces the number and polarization of macrophages and increases IL-10 expression in coronary atherosclerotic lesions of WHHLMI rabbits. HBSP reduces the number of macrophages (A: F4/80-positive cells), M1 macrophages (B: CD11c-positive cells) and M1/M2 macrophage ratio (C) and increases IL-10-positive cells (D). Data are mean ± SEM; negative control IgG, n = 3; control, n = 7; HBSP, n = 8; *P< 0.01, #P< 0.05.
