Quantification of aortic root lesions stained positive for Oil Red O in LDLR^−/− mice receiving GFP⁺ marrow (white bar), LDLR^−/− mice receiving FucT-VII^−/−GFP⁺ marrow (gray bar), and FucT-VII^−/−LDLR^−/− mice receiving GFP⁺ marrow (black bar) fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks. Data are reported as the mean lesion area of four sections taken from the heart of each animal every 40 μm through the aortic valve. The mean ± SEM is shown for each group.
