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

Figure 8

Anti-IL-5 mAb abrogates the effect of valsartan on atherosclerosis in Ang II-treated ApoE−/− mice. (A) Representative sections of the aortic sinus stained with oil red O, and antibodies specific to α-SMA, MOMA-2 and collagen in ApoE−/− mice. Black bar = 200 µm. (B-E) Quantitative analysis of the lesion size, α-SMA and MOMA-2 staining. The values are presented as the mean ± SD; n = 6. **p < 0.01, #p > 0.05.
