Mild or no effect on atheroma in DNT5 aortic conduit. All data were from mice which had been provided with western-style diet and DOX for 12 weeks. All mice were ApoE−/−. (A) Example aortae from the heart to the iliac bifurcation, opened, and stained with Oil Red O. Scale bar 2 mm. (B) Comparison of Oil Red O percentage coverage (Atherosclerosis) between Controls and DNT5 in the whole aorta, aortic arch and aortic conduit as specified in (A). On the left, Mann-Whitney analysis showing mean and s.e.m (N = 13 Control, N = 16 DNT5). On the right, linear random effects model analysis showing the standardised mean difference and confidence intervals. Data below the zero line indicate decrease in the DNT5 group (n/N = 10/13 Control, n/N = 10/16 DNT5).
