Figure 7

Peri-infarct angiogenesis after IC transplantation or IV injection of hUC-MSCs in MCAo rats. (A) Representative confocal images of DAB-stained RECA-1 (brown) in four study groups. Scale bar = 100 μm. (B) Schematic images of quantitative analyses for four ROIs in peri-infarct border zones. (C) Quantitative analyses of RECA-1+ microvascular (diameter < 30 μm) counts in four study groups (n = 5 each). (D) Representative confocal images of dual IHC for PECAM1 (green) and BrdU (red) in the rat after IC transplantation of hUC-MSCs. Note: No PECAM1+/BrdU+ vessels were found in the other three study groups. DAPI (blue) counterstain. Scale bar = 50 μm. Data expressed as mean ± SEM values. *p < 0.05.
