FIGURE 6.
Pathology of mice aorta using HE staining (A1–B4) and the expression of VCAM-1 in the intima (C1–C4). (A1–C1) The saline control group. (A2–C2) The CAS group. (A3–C3) The healthy subjects. (A4–A4) The BH4 group. (C5) The mean optical density of VCAM-1 in the intima of four groups [n = 7 per group; (A1–A4) ×100, (B1–B4) ×400]. Values are shown as means ± SD. *p < 0.05 vs. the control group; # p < 0.05 vs. the CAS group.
