Apoe−/−Nba2.Yaa mice exhibit Th2, TFH and B cell mRNA markers in the spleen and the aortic arch in HCD. Bar graphs represent the median ± s.e.m. of mRNA quantification of (a) cd4 expression in the spleen, (b) cd4 expression in the arch, (c) gata3 and il4 expression in the spleen, (d) gata3 and il4 expression in the arch, (e) bcl6 expression in the spleen, (f) bcl6 expression in the arch, (g) cd20 expression in the spleen and (h) cd20 expression in the arch in Apoe−/− or Apoe−/−Nba2.Yaa mice on HCD (n = 8–10 mice/group). The nonparametric Mann–Whitney U test was used for statistical analysis: *p ≤ 0.05; **p ≤ 0.005..
