Distribution of Clara cells in mouse tracheal epithelium. Confocal images of whole mount of trachea from pathogen-free CCSP/EGFP mouse given Dox for 2 days. A: Green fluorescent nuclei of Clara cells are more abundant in regions of epithelium between cartilages than over cartilages. Blood vessels (PECAM-1, cyan) and lymphatics (LYVE-1, red) form segmented networks between the cartilage rings. B: Some epithelial cells outlined by borders stained with tight junction protein ZO-1 (red) have green fluorescent nuclei representing CCSP/EGFP (green). Scale bars: 200 μm (A); 50 μm (B).
