Effects of TQ on neointimal formation induced by ligation in rats. A, Representative haematoxylin and eosin (H&E)–stained carotid artery slices from rat treated with intraperitoneal administration of low (8 mg/kg) or high dose (16 mg/kg) of TQ for 14 d after carotid artery ligation. B, C, The effects of TQ on neointimal formation in rat carotid arteries at 14 d after ligation injury were quantitated by neointimal area and neointima/media (N/M) ratio. *P < .05 vs sham group. #P < .05 vs ligation group. Means ± SD (n = 6 in each group)
