Table 1. Levels of the serum lipids.
Lipid | WT | ApoE−/− | ApoE−/−NR1 |
CHO (mmol/L) | 6.46±0.55 | 15.87±0.39# | 12.96±0.78** |
TG(mmol/L) | 0.84±0.05 | 2.82±0.08# | 2.39±0.06** |
LDL (mmol/L) | 4.14±0.24 | 10.22±0.36# | 9.90±0.38 |
HDL(mmol/L) | 0.84±0.02 | 0.41±0.02# | 0.51±0.04* |
ox-LDL (ug/L) | 31.10±0.96 | 73.07±1.29# | 50.74±0.69** |
ApoE−/− vs. WT, p<0.01.
* ApoE−/−NR1 vs. ApoE−/−, p<0.05.
** ApoE−/−NR1 vs. ApoE−/−, p<0.01. Statistical analysis was first performed by one-way ANOVA to test the difference among all three groups, which was followed by Student's t test to compare the difference between ApoE−/− vs. WT and ApoE−/−NR1 vs. ApoE−/−, respectively.
