Pathological analysis and serum analysis. (A) Fluorescent images of aortic sinus stained with dihydroethidium (DHE) and DAPI from atherosclerosis mice (Scale bar = 100 μm). (B) Quantitative analysis of ROS positive area from (A). Mean ± SD, n = 3, *p < 0.05. (C) Sections of aortic sinus stained with antibody to CD68, IL-6 (Scale bar = 100 μm). (D, E) Quantitative analysis of CD68 positive and IL-6 positive area from (C). Mean ± SD, n = 3, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.0001. (F) The serum level of TG, TC, HDL and LDL in all groups. Mean ± SD, n = 4. (G) Indices of hepatic and renal functions after treatment in apoe−/− mice. Means ± SD, n = 3
