MOESM4 of Liraglutide dictates macrophage phenotype in apolipoprotein E null mice during early atherosclerosis

Additional file 4: Figure S3. Quantification of atherosclerotic lesions in aortae of HFHCD-fed ApoE−/− mice. Aortae were harvested from ApoE−/− mice fed a HFHCD for 4–8 weeks. Aortae were harvested and en face staining was performed with a| representative images of total aorta lesion areas and percentage lesion quantified for b| total area, c| aortic arch, d| thoracic aorta, e| abdominal aorta and f| iliac bifurcation, using ImageJ. Error bars are representative of 10 aortae per group (n=10). Statistical analysis was performed carrying out Mann−Whitney t tests. Statistical significance was considered when ***p<0.001 and p>0.05 was considered NS
