ELISA and RT-PCR analysis of GGT-1, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1. A: effect of atorvastatin on GGT-1, VCAM-1and ICAM-1 serum concentrations in ApoE KO mice. Serum GGT-1, VCAM-1and ICAM-1 was measured using an ELISA kit. *P <0.01 as compared with ND group; #P <0.01 as compared with HCD group. B: effect of atorvastatin treatment on GGT-1, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 mRNA expression in arterial atheromatous plaque. The mRNA levels of GGT-1, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1were measured by RT-PCR, as described in the Methods section. *P <0.01 as compared with ND group; #P <0.01 as compared with HCD group.
