Distinct Chemical Changes in Abdominal but not in Thoracic Aorta upon Atherosclerosis Studied Using Fiber Optic Raman Spectroscopy

Distinct Chemical Changes in Abdominal but not in Thoracic Aorta upon Atherosclerosis Studied Using Fiber Optic Raman Spectroscopy

Fiber optic Raman spectroscopy and Raman microscopy were used to investigate alterations in the aorta wall and the surrounding perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) in the murine model of atherosclerosis (<i>Apoe<sup>-/-</sup>/Ldlr<sup>-/-</sup></i> mice). Both abdom...
