Coronary artery disease has a significant genetic predisposition, which mainly results from atherosclerosis. Miniature pig is an excellent model to investigate atherosclerosis. This study investigated whether the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis in the Wuzhishan miniature pigs (WZSPs) that were closely bred 12 generations had better consistency. The WZSPs (n = 9) were fed a high-cholesterol and high-fat diet (HCFD). After continuous feeding, 3 WZSPs each were sacrificed at 6, 8, and 12 months, respectively, and the general clinical manifestations and serological indexes were detected. The pathological changes of the major arteries and main organs were recorded. The results showed WZSPs were quite susceptible to the HCFD. At 6 months, plaque lesions appeared in the abdominal aorta and iliac artery, while at 8 months, they appeared in the coronary artery. At 12 months, atherosclerotic lesions could be found in all major arteries, while lipid core, cholesterol precipitation, and calcium deposition appeared in the most serious sites. The progression of arterial lesions and distribution of the lesions were highly consistent in the pigs. However, apparent variations in serum markers were observed. In conclusion, inbred WZSP is a good model to investigate atherosclerosis and has good predictability for the occurrence and development of the disease.
