Figure 2

Representative intravital images showing the drainage of the water-soluble dyes (A) fluorescein, (B) methylene blue, (C) rhodamine B, (D) Evans blue, and (E) 10-kDa TD. (F) Representative intravital images showing the drainage of lipophilic dye, FITC. The dotted lines delineate the lacteal. (G) Representative intravital images showing the drainage of an intrinsically fluorescent chemotherapeutic agent, topotecan. Representative images were each obtained from more than 3 independent experiments. Scale bar: 30 μm.
