MSC transplantation mitigated atherosclerosis in apoE-/-Fas-/- mice. The ApoE^−/−Fas^−/− mice were injected with MSC or PBS via tail vein. The plasma concentration of ALT (A), LDL (B), TG (C), TC (D), and HDL (E) in ApoE^−/− Fas^−/− mice. Aortas from ApoE^−/− Fas^−/− mice stained with Oil Red O (J). Representative H&E -stained images of liver sections from ApoE^−/− Fas^−/− mice (K, L). AF, ApoE^−/− Fas^−/− mice, n = 5 mice/group, Data were based on three independent experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 using Student’s t-test
