Abstract
Estradiol significantly decreases fatty streak formation in the aortic root of chow-fed apolipoprotein E-deficient mice. In contrast, immunodeficient mice with homozygous disruption at the recombinase activating gene 2 loci present fatty streak development that is insensitive to estradiol. Lymphocytes thus appear to be required for development of the atheroprotective effect of estradiol in this mouse model.
