Figure 6 In situ oligoligation (ISOL) in the transition to heart failure. Sheep lymph node tissue used as (a) positive control and (b) negative control with T4 DNA ligase enzyme omitted. Biopsy samples (n = 4 from each stage) were taken at echocardiographically distinct stages of (c) normal left ventricle (control), (d) left ventricular hypertrophy, (e) left ventricular dilation, and (f) left ventricular failure and subjected to peroxidase-labeled ISOL assay. The ISOL positivity is shown by dark brown staining nuclei (magnification x20).
