Reduced systemic inflammation and altered immune cell composition in blood of DKO mice. (A) Circulating MCP-1 concentrations in LdlrKO and DKO mice measured by ELISA (n = 5–7). (B) Absolute white blood cell count analyzed by a fully automated hematology analyzer (n = 5–6). (C, D) Representative flow cytometric plots of Ly6G vs. CD11b staining of CD45 + cells. (E) Quantification of Ly6G vs. CD11b staining of immune cells in peripheral blood (n = 5–6). Data represent mean values ± SD. *p < 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001
