VCAM-1 immunohistochemistry in the thoracic aorta. Control (a); HFCD group (b); fluvastatin-treated HFCD group (c); EAL I-treated HFCD group (d); EAL II-treated HFCD group (e). The lower panel shows the quantitative analysis of the VCAM-1-positive area. The average score of 5–10 randomly selected sites per section of aorta was calculated. Data are expressed as mean ± S.E.; **p<0.01 vs. Control; #p<0.05, ##p<0.01 vs. HFCD. The scale bar represents 15 μm (Magnification, ×400).
