Figure 2. PF, unlike HSC, express the fibroblast marker TE-7.

Figure 2

Myofibroblastic HSC (A) and PF (B), isolated as described from normal rat liver and differentiated in culture (22), were stained with the fibroblast marker TE-7 (red) and with the nuclear stain DAPI (blue). Note that this marker clearly distinguishes the two cell types, and identifies PF in culture as fibroblasts.
