Klf15tm2Jain/Klf15tm2Jain Tg(Tagln-cre)1Jjl/0 Apoetm1Unc/Apoetm1Unc aortas develop more atherosclerotic lesions after a high fat diet challenge

homeostasis/metabolism
N
• mice fed a high fat diet exhibit the same circulating levels of cholesterol and triglycerides as in Apoetm1Unc homozygotes

immune system
• increased macrophage in the aortic wall and atherosclerotic lesions of mice fed a high fat diet with Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
• increased macrophage in the aortic wall and atherosclerotic lesions of mice fed a high fat diet with Apoetm1Unc homozygotes

cardiovascular system
• in mice fed a high fat diet compared with Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
• decreased vascular smooth muscle cells in the aortic wall and atherosclerotic lesions of mice fed a high fat diet with Apoetm1Unc homozygotes
