Neointimal formation in two apolipoprotein E-deficient mouse strains with different atherosclerosis susceptibility
C57BL/6 (B6) and C3H/HeJ (C3H) are two commonly used mouse strains that differ markedly in atherosclerosis susceptibility. In this study, we determined plaque formation after removal of the endothelium in the two strains carrying the mutant apolipoprotein E gene (apoE−/−). At 10 weeks of age, male B...
