A possible involvement of immune- and vasoregulatory PACAP signaling at the PAC1 receptor in atherogenesis and plaque-associated vascular inflammation has been suggested. Therefore, we tested the PAC1 receptor agonist Maxadilan and the PAC1 selective antagonist M65 on plaque development and lumen stenosis in the ApoE atherosclerosis model for possible effects on atherogenesis. Adult male ApoE mice were fed a cholesterol-enriched diet (CED) or standard chow (SC) treated with Maxadilan, M65 or Sham.
