Green tea polyphenol treatment attenuates atherosclerosis in high-fat diet-fed apolipoprotein E-knockout mice via alleviating dyslipidemia and up-regulating autophagy

Effects of green tea polyphenol on mRNA expression in aortic and hepatic tissues in mice (n = 3).
(A) LC3; (B) p62; (C) Beclin-1; (D) TFEB; (E) PPARα; (F) PPARγ; (G) SREBP-1C; (H) FAS. The mRNA of β-actin was quantified as an endogenous control. a P<0.05 and aa P<0.01 compared to C57BL/Control group; b P<0.05 and bb P<0.01 compared to ApoE-/-/Control group. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD.
