Fig. 1From: Baccaurea angulata fruit juice reduces atherosclerotic lesions in diet-induced Hypercholesterolemic rabbitsAorta histopathology a H&E stain b van Gieson stain (Magnification ×40). Both micrograhs show a pale-staining intima thickening area representing an early athermatous lesion consisting of aggregated myointimal cells containing lipid and some fibrous intima tissues. The media, however, appears normal at this stage, because early atheroma is confined to the intima. PC = Positive Control, C1, C2 & C3 are 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mL/kg/day atherogenic groups, respectively, NgC = Negative Control. Lu = Lumen, Fo = Foam cells & M = Tunica mediaBack to article page
