Figure 1. activation features of JAK2/STAT3 in the vessel wall after AA.
A–F: p-STAT3 positive cells (red) in Sham group and AA group determined by immunofluorecence (Samples: 7 days after AA; Arrows indicated the typical positive cells. n = 3 anastomoses. Bar = 100 µm). G–I: Representative bands of target proteins in Sham group and AA groups at 3, 7, and 14 days after surgery (n = 4 anastomoses). The analysis showed the expression p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 increased and peaked at 7 days after the AA procedure (** p<0.01 versus Sham group).
