cardiovascular system
• iron deposition in atherosclerotic lesions is almost two times greater than what is observed in mice that are homozygotes for just the Apoetm1Unc allele
• there is also increased amounts of oxidized lipids and proteins occurring in the plaques

immune system
• 50% more macrophages are found in atherosclerotic lesions than in mice that are homozygous for just the Apoetm1Unc allele

cellular
• 50% more macrophages are found in atherosclerotic lesions than in mice that are homozygous for just the Apoetm1Unc allele

hematopoietic system
• 50% more macrophages are found in atherosclerotic lesions than in mice that are homozygous for just the Apoetm1Unc allele
