Expression of angiogenic factors in NCC model shown by
inmunohistochemistry. Panel A, VEGF expression, Control region (Cp,
[n=7]), parenchymal cyst (P, [n=11]), corticomeningeal cyst (Cm, [n=8]), control
region of the ventricle (Cv, [n=5]), ventricular cyst (V, [n=8]). Panel
B, FGF2 expression. Control region (Cp, [n=9]), parenchymal cyst (P,
[n=10]), corticomeningeal cyst (Cm, [n=8]), control region of the ventricle (Cv,
[n=5]), ventricular cyst (V, [n=8]). Control brains (i, ii) and
infected brains (iii, iv). i, iii, scale bar 200um.
ii, iv, scale bar 50um. v, comparison of the
immunoreactive area by cyst location. Mann-Whitney U, P<0.05 (*),
P<0.001 (**), P<0.0001 (***)
