Fig. 5From: RETRACTED ARTICLE: Down-regulation of microRNA-342-5p or Up-regulation of Wnt3a Inhibits Angiogenesis and Maintains Atherosclerotic Plaque Stability in Atherosclerosis MiceEffects of high expression of Wnt3a or poor expression of miR-342-5p on aortic plaque vulnerability of ApoE−/− mice. A Immunohistochemical staining of MOMA-2 in each group of mice (scale bar: 50 μm). B Quantitative analysis of figure A. C Immunohistochemical staining of α-SMA in each group of mice (scale bar: 50 μm). D Quantitative analysis of figure C. E Comparison of plaque vulnerability index in aortic tissues of AS mice. n = 12. #P < 0.05 vs. the NC group. & P < 0.05 vs. the miR-342-5p agomir group. Measurement data were indicated as mean ± standard deviation. Comparisons among multiple groups were assessed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.
