Figure 2

Effects of P. gingivalis infection on the plasma lipid profile (N = 5 in each group). Box plots represent medians, with the 25th and 75th percentiles as boxes and the 10th and 90th percentiles as whiskers. Total and LDL cholesterol levels were significantly higher, whereas HDL cholesterol levels tended to be lower in the P. gingivalis-infected mice (** P < 0.01, Mann–Whitney U-test).
