Salidroside Decreases Atherosclerotic Plaque Formation in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Deficient Mice

Figure 1

Salidroside decreases the atherosclerotic area. (a) Representative en face atherosclerotic aorta preparations stained with oil red O. (b) Comparison of plaque sizes between the vehicle and Salidroside groups (𝑁=7 per group). The area stained with dye is expressed as a percentage of the total surface area. The mean is depicted as a single horizontal line, ^∗∗∗𝑃<0.001 versus vehicle group.
