Figure 4. Analysis of vessel densities in ischemic region of cCHD hearts.
Total blood vessels (blue arrows) in ischemic region of the vehicle treated hearts (B) were significantly less than those in sham-operated (A) and AFGJ treated hearts (C). The vascular density (D) in the AFGJ treated ischemic hearts is higher than that of vehicle treated hearts, but similar with that in sham-operated hearts. In each experiment, the microvessls were calculated from 5 random fields/mice. Data were presented as mean ± SEM. ***, p < 0.001.
