FIGURE 3

Effect of adjacent PVAT on acetylcholine-induced relaxation of mesenteric arteries from male mice. Concentration-response curves to acetylcholine in mesenteric arteries without PVAT (PVAT-; white symbols) or in the presence of adjacent PVAT (PVAT +; blue filled symbols) from male mice fed a chow diet (CD; A,E; circle symbols), high-fat diet (HF; B,F; triangle symbols) and HF plus high-sucrose diet (HF + HS; C,G; square symbols) for 3 (left panel) or 5 (right panel) months. Bar graphs show the potency of the response to acetylcholine (pEC50) (D,H) in PVAT- (white bars) and PVAT+ (blue filled bars) arteries. The experimental number used is in parenthesis. *p < 0.05 (two-way ANOVA).
