cardiovascular system
|
• at 12 weeks of age, female mice fed a low-fat, semi-synthetic diet exhibit an increase in susceptibility to atherosclerosis in the aortic root compared with Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
• at 16 weeks of age, male mice fed a low-fat, semi-synthetic diet exhibit an increase in susceptibility to atherosclerosis in the aortic root compared with Apoetm1Unc homozygotes

|
• female mice exhibit an increase in macrophage content in lesions compared with Ldlrtm1Her homozygotes
• however, lesion size and susceptibility do not differ from Ldlrtm1Her homozygotes
