Mice	Weight, g	Total Cholesterol, mM	LDL-Cholesterol, mM	HDL-Cholesterol, mM	TG, mM	Glucose, mM
6-mo WT	36 ± 1 (13)	2.1 ± 0.2 (5)	0.7 ± 0.1 (5)	1.2 ± 0.1 (5)	0.7 ± 0.1 (5)	26.8 ± 3.0 (5)
6-mo ATX	32 ± 2 (12)	15.7 ± 1.3^* (5)	10.3 ± 1.2^* (5)	1.6 ± 0.1^* (5)	7.2 ± 1.3^* (5)	15.9 ± 3.6^* (5)
6-mo ATX + CAT	31 ± 1 (10)	22.3 ± 1.3^† (5)	15.0 ± 1.1^† (5)	1.6 ± 0.1 (5)	6.5 ± 0.6 (5)	19.8 ± 1.5 (5)

Values are means ± SE; n, no. of mice are in parentheses. WT, wild-type mice; ATX, atherosclerotic, LDLr^−/−:hApoB^+/+ mice; ATX+ CAT, LDLr^−/−:hApoB^+/+ mice treated with (+)-catechin (CAT; 30 mg · kg⁻¹ · day⁻¹); LDL, low-density lipoprotein; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; TG, triglycerides.

P < 0.05 vs. 6-mo WT.
