Figure 11. Thickness of the cellular lining of the 180 3D-reconstructed GVs.

Figure 11.

A: Mean thickness of the cellular lining of the GVs was significantly thinner on sections with maximal cross-sectional area (CSA) of GVs than those sections away from the maximal CSA (mean of # of sections away: 22, range: 3-146, based on size of each GV) (P = 0.03). B: Mean thickness of the cellular lining of GV types measured on the section with maximal CSA. Mean thickness was significantly thinner in GV Types II (basal opening, no I-pore) and IV (both basal opening and I-pore), compared to Type I GVs (no basal opening or I-pore) (both P ≤ 0.01). C: Mean thickness of the cellular lining of the GVs in the peri-pore region on the section before and after an I-pore was significantly thinner than ≥90° away from the I-pore area on the same sections (P ≤ 0.01). Error bars: SEM. *P < 0.05; **P ≤ 0.01.
