Decreased aortic root atherosclerosis susceptibility in Apoetm1Unc/Apoetm1Unc Hsd11b1tm1Lex/Hsd11b1tm1Lex mice

immune system
N
• mice fed a high fat diet and subjected to intraperitoneal thioglycollate challenge exhibit normal inflammatory cell migration
• foam cells from mice fed a high fat diet exhibit reduced cholesterol content compared with control cells
• in atherosclerotic lesions of mice fed a high fat diet
• peritoneal foam cells treated with oxidized LDL exhibit reduced secretion of G-CSF, KC, MCP-1 and TNFalpha compared with control cells
• in peritoneal foam cells treated with oxidized LDL

homeostasis/metabolism
• in mice fed a high fat diet as in Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
• decreased total, 7-ketocholesterol and 7beta-hydroxycholesterol levels in the aorta of mice fed a high fat diet compared with similarly treated Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
• foam cells from mice fed a high fat diet exhibit reduced cholesterol content compared with control cells

cardiovascular system
N
• mice fed a high fat diet exhibit normal blood pressure
• decreased total, 7-ketocholesterol and 7beta-hydroxycholesterol levels in the aorta of mice fed a high fat diet compared with similarly treated Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
• foam cells from mice fed a high fat diet exhibit reduced cholesterol content compared with control cells

behavior/neurological
N
• mice fed a high fat diet exhibit normal behavior

growth/size/body
N
• mice fed a high fat diet exhibit normal weight gain

hematopoietic system
• foam cells from mice fed a high fat diet exhibit reduced cholesterol content compared with control cells
• in atherosclerotic lesions of mice fed a high fat diet
• bone marrow-derived stem cells transferred into Apoetm1Unc recipient fed a high fat diet results in decreased atherosclerosis in whole thoracic aorta and descending aorta

cellular
• foam cells from mice fed a high fat diet exhibit reduced cholesterol content compared with control cells
