Macrophage content in carotid artery and aortic root atherosclerotic lesions. (a) Macrophage content in the carotid artery lesions as measured by MOMA2 staining was reduced upon treatment with 15a, both in total macrophage positive area (left panel) and relatively as percentage of lesion size (right panel). Micrographs show representative images of the individual groups (100X magnification). (b) Also in the aortic root, 15a significantly reduced the macrophage⁺ area (left panel). Relative macrophage content did not significantly differ between the groups (right panel). Micrographs show representative images of the individual groups (40X magnification). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. Graphs shown are representative from one experiment with n = 10 controls versus n = 9 15a-treated mice.
