Complement C1q Reduces Early Atherosclerosis in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Deficient Mice

We explored the role of the classic complement pathway in atherogenesis by intercrossing C1q-deficient mice (C1qa(−/−)) with low-density lipoprotein receptor knockout mice (Ldlr(−/−)). Mice were fed a normal rodent diet until 22 weeks of age. Aortic root lesions were threefold larger in C1qa(−/−)/Ld...
