Fig. 5. Spleen syndecan-1 is decreased after burn injury. (A) Representative images of spleen tissue immunofluorescently stained for intact syndecan- 1 immediately post injury at hour 0 and at hours 2, 4, and 8. (B) Syndecan-1 immunostaining in spleen tissue was decreased when compared to sham animals at hour 8 in both injury groups. (C) At each time point examined, levels of syndecan-1 in the spleen were lower in the 25% TBSA injury group compared to the sham group when fluorescent intensity was quantified. Syndecan-1 (Pink) DAPI (Blue).
