Values are the mean ± SEM. Body weight is expressed in grams. MABP, pO2 and pCO2 are expressed in mmHg.
P<0.05 and
P<0.01 vs. age-matched ApoE KO without HFD (control);
P<0.01 vs. age- and diet-matched ApoE KO (vehicle).
MABP, mean arterial blood pressure; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; SEM, standard error of the mean; ApoE, apolipoprotein E; KO, knockout; HFD, high-fat diet.
