Reduced apoptotic cell death and necrotic core formation in lesions of Apoe−/− Cd36−/− Msr1−/− mice. A, Lesional apoptotic cells in aortic root lesions of female mice were detected by TUNEL staining. Representative fluorescent images (×100 magnification) and quantitative data are shown. Red, TUNEL positive nuclei; white, DAPI-stained nuclei. *P<0.05; Student t test. B, Quantitative analysis of necrotic core size relative to total lesion area; n=9 to 11 per group; **P<0.005, *P<0.05; Student t test.
