mRNA level of several marker genes in aorta of 5 months old LDLr−/− mice after 4 months of feeding with Western-type diet (WD), and the same diet with 0.5% AzA supplement (WD+AzA). A: MCP-1, CD4 and P-selectin mRNA level in aortic arch. P < 0.01 for differences in Norm and WD or WD+AzA groups; B: Relative level of mRNA of CD68 in aortic arch and abdominal aorta. P < 0.001 for differences in Norm and WD or WD+AzA groups.
