Figure 4 Infiltrating Macrophages in the Perivascular Space of Collateral Arteries (400x magnification)
In a double staining of alpha smooth muscle actin (green) and the macrophage marker CD68, the number of perivascular CD68+ cells was counted at a 200x magnification and expressed as cells/mm2. More CD68+ macrophages (arrows) are present in the perivascular space from TGF-ß1–treated animals compared with the control groups. Abbreviations as in Figure 1.
