From: Valsartan Attenuates Atherosclerosis via Upregulating the Th2 Immune Response in Prolonged Angiotensin II-Treated ApoE−/− Mice

Figure 2

Valsartan ameliorates the development of atherosclerosis in Ang II-treated ApoE−/− mice (I). (A) Representative sections of aortic sinus stained with oil red O in the three groups. Black bar = 200 µm. (B) Representative photographs of oil red O staining in the surface lesion area of the entire aorta. (C) Quantitative analysis of the lesion size of aortic sinus staining in the three groups (*p < 0.05 versus group II). (D) Quantitative analysis of the percent lesion area of the entire vessel area (*p < 0.05 versus group II, **p < 0.01 versus group II). The values are presented as the mean ± SD; n = 5–7.
