Figure 4.
Photomicrographs of representative atherosclerotic lesions. Size-matched lesions of LRPflox/floxLDLR–/–APOE–/– (upper panels) and MX1Cre+LRPflox/floxLDLR–/–APOE–/– (lower panels) mice. Sections were stained with either HPS (A-B), the macrophage-specific antibody AIA-31240 (C-D), the SMC–α-actin–specific antibody (E-F), or with Resorcin-Fuchsin (elastin; G-H).
