Effects of XIST on atherosclerosis mice. (a) RT-qPCR was used to detect the efficiency of knockdown XIST in mice. (b)–(d)The bar graph showed TG and LDL as well as a low HDL levels in sh-NC group vs. sh- XIST group, , . (e) HE staining indicated that the area of aortic AP in the sh-XIST group compared with other groups, , . (f) Masson staining showed that the collagen content in the area of aortic AP in other groups decreased relative to the normal group, . , , #, ##.
