Pravastatin Prevents Aortic Atherosclerosis via Modulation of Signal Transduction and Activation of Transcription 3 (STAT3) to Attenuate Interleukin-6 (IL-6) Action in ApoE Knockout Mice

The purpose of this study was to determine whether pravastatin’s prevention of aortic atherosclerosis via attenuation of IL-6 action depends on modulation of STAT3 activity. Male apoE knockout (apoE-/-) mice fed on a diet containing 1.25% cholesterol (wt/wt) were divided into pravastatin group provi...
