IHC results from annexin A4, MRLC and vimentin. The differential abundance of ANXA4 (A, atherosclerotic coronary; B, preatherosclerotic radial), MRLC (D, atherosclerotic coronary; E, preatherosclerotic radial) and vimentin (G, atherosclerotic coronary; H, preatherosclerotic radial) in the atherosclerotic coronary intima, observed by DIGE analysis, was validated by IHC in an independent cohort of arteries (six atherosclerotic coronaries and six radial arteries, both from biopsy origin). Mean values of immunostaining % from these assays are represented in the plot, together with the standard deviation (error bars) (C, ANXA4; F, MRLC, I, vimentin). Open-end arrow: VSMCs. Closed-end arrow: macrophages/foam cells. Discontinuous arrow: ECs.
