Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining of cross-sections of aorta root showed typical As plaques. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000The hfd treatment successfully promoted AS development in ApoE-/- mice. The process of gene identification-general situation analysis-blood lipid analysis-morphologic analysis was established to verify AS model. The establishment of mouse AS model provides a valuable tool for the study of AS-related diseases in vivo. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Atherosclerosis; Gene knock out mice; Low density lipoprotein; Cholesterol; Lorta","PeriodicalId":10065,"journal":{"name":"中华实验外科杂志","volume":"37 1","pages":"172-175"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44866914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
