HC-24 treatment reduces neutrophil infiltration in Ldlr-/-.Leiden mice fed a translational HFD for 24 weeks. (A) Concentration of the neutrophil chemokine CXCL1 in liver tissue of chow, HFD + vehicle control and HFD + HC-24 groups. (B) Quantification of the immunohistochemical staining for the neutrophil marker GR-1, showing the number of GR-1-positive aggregates for each group. (C) Representative photomicrographs of immunohistochemical staining for the neutrophil marker GR-1 in cross sections of the medial lobe of the liver. Arrows indicate neutrophilic aggregates. (D) Quantification of the immunohistochemical staining for the macrophage marker F4/80, showing the number of F4/80-positive crown-like structures for each group. (E) Representative photomicrographs of immunohistochemical staining for the macrophage marker F4/80 in cross sections of the medial lobe of the liver. Arrows indicate F4/80-positive crown-like structures. HFD, high-fat diet; CLS, crown-like structure. Data shown are mean ± SD. *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 compared with HFD + vehicle.
