Histological and immunohistological staining of neointima in C57/BL6 mouse carotids three weeks after intralumenal application of 2.5 μM AGP. Panel A. Vehicle injected control carotid artery shows no neointima. Panel B: AGP-treatment causes concentric neointima with capillary formation within the neointima. Panel C: Anti-CD31 staining shows single layer of staining and lack of staining in the neointimal layers. Panel D. Anti-αSMA staining shows intensive immunoreactivity in the neointimal layers. Panel E. Merged image of anti-CD68 (green) and anti-αSMA (red) staining shows scattered cells bearing this marker in the neointima and no double stained cells in this merged image. Panel F. Anti-CD11b stained cells are few and anti-αSMA double positive cells are not visible. Calibration bar is 100 μm.
