SCARB1 and atherosclerosis: We therefore examined the effects of STZ- vs control-treatment on atherosclerosis in coronary arteries in SR-B1-KO/hypoE that had been maintained on chow diet until 14 weeks after the induction of STZ or control- treatment, and in STZ- or control-treated SR-B1-KO/hypoE mice that had been fed the HFC diet beginning 3 weeks after the start of STZ- or control-treatment for a total of 4 weeks of HFC diet feeding (Figures 4A–G).
