Fig. 9. NF157 block events in early atherosclerosis in TEBVs.

Fig. 9

a Perfusion of TEBVs with 50 μg/ml eLDL reduces vasoconstriction and vasodilation, but the response recovers 8 days after removal of eLDL (mean ± S.D., n = 4 TEBVs, *PE: P = 0.01408, Ach: *P = 0.01543 to control by two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test). b Addition of 25 µM NF157 with 50 µg/ml reduces the inhibition of vasoactivity and leads to a more rapid recovery after removal of eLDL (mean ± S.D., n = 4 TEBVs, *P = 0.01369 to control by two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test). c NF157 block eLDL-mediated monocyte accumulation in TEBVs (mean ± S.D., n = 4 TEBVs, *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.0001 to control by two-way ANOVA). d NF157 does not inhibit ICAM-1 and E-selectin expression on endothelial cells in TEBVs (mean ± S.D., n = 3 TEBVs, ICAM-1: *P = 0.0136 control vs. eLDL, *P = 0.0252 control vs. eLDL +NF157; E-selectin *P = 0.0181 control vs. eLDL by two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test, MFI = mean fluorescence intensity; Flow rate: 0.4 Pa to vasoactivity testing and 0.1 Pa for monocyte accumulation).
