(A) Expression of C1qa, C1qb, and C1qc mRNAs determined by microarray analysis (n = 8 mice per group). **P <0.01, *P <0.05. (B) Representative images of the C1q-positive area in the S and M groups. Scale bar: 50 μm. (C) Quantitative analysis of the C1q-positive area in the S and M groups (n = 4 mice per group). **P <0.01.
