AKBA restored vascular morphological alterations.

(a) Representative photographs of aortic samples (×200) stained by hematoxylin and eosin. Vascular parameters for assessment of vascular remodeling: (b) relative vascular cell number, (c) cross-sectional area, (d) media thickness and (e) Media/Lumen ratio. The data are represented as mean ± SD (n = 5). ##P < 0.01, ###P < 0.001 vs. WKY; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs. SHR.
