Figure 1. Acute irradiation.

Figure 1

A. Representative en face preparations of aortas from female ApoE−/− mice 300 days after acute irradiation with 0.3 Gy, 6 Gy and from age-matched controls. B–D. Morphometric analyses performed on digital images from en face preparations of aortas (n = 8) representing percentage of ORO-stained area (B), plaques density (C) and plaques size (D). E. Regional distribution of plaques. F–H. Representative aortic root sections from sham- (F), 0.3 Gy- (G) and 6 Gy-irradiated mice (H) (Masson's trichrome stain). I. Graphic representation of plaques area (n = 18) measured on aortic root cross-sections. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. Differences were tested with Student's t-test. **P < 0.001. Arrows: coronary artery. Bars: 500 μm.
