Detection of TMAO, stem cells, ox-LDL, and scavenger receptor in aorta. A Quantitative analysis of TMAO secretion in the liver indicated that the concentration (P < 0.05) and content (P < 0.05) of TMAO in the UCSCs group were lower than that in the model group. B, C Location analysis of stem cells in the aorta showed that they were mainly located in the aortic plaque of the arterial wall. In the UCSCs treatment group, the absorption of ox-LDL decreased (P < 0.01), and the expression levels of macrophage scavenger receptors CD36 (P < 0.01) and SRA-1 (P < 0.01) decreased in the aorta. n = 6 in each group.*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, compared with model group
