Intimal remodeling during the vein to AVF transformation. (a) Expression levels and magnitude of fold change in upregulated proteoglycan genes during the vein to AVF transformation. The y-axis indicates normalized counts. False discovery rate < 0.05 for all paired comparisons. (b) Representative Alcian blue stainings and quantification in veins and AVF tissue sections. (c,d) Immunohistochemistry of aggrecan (c) and versican (d) and quantification in veins and AVF tissue sections. Values in (b) to (d) were compared using paired t-tests. AVF, arteriovenous fistula; I, intima; M, media.
