Figure 3From: Immunization with advanced glycation end products modified low density lipoprotein inhibits atherosclerosis progression in diabetic apoE and LDLR null miceSerum titers of IgG, IgM, IgG1 and IgG2a antibodies. A. ELISA analysis of titers of IgG, IgM, and specific anti-AGE-LDL IgG and IgM antibodies in sera from diabetic apoE-/- and LDLR-/- mice (n = 10 per group) treated with Alum adjuvant (bar with stripes), AGE-LDL + Alum adjuvant (black bar) or PBS controls (white bar). B. ELISA analysis of specific IgG1 and IgG2a antibodies against AGE-LDL in sera from diabetic apoE-/- and LDLR-/- mice treated with Alum adjuvant, AGE-LDL + Alum adjuvant or PBS controls. C shows the ratio of serum IgG1/IgG2a antibodies among three groups. *indicates p < 0.05 vs. control, **indicates p < 0.01 vs. control, and #indicates p < 0.05 vs. Alum.Back to article page
