The effect of different constrictions on myocardial hypertrophy and angiogenesis. (A) Immunostaining for CD31 (red), wheat germ agglutinin (WGA, green), and DAPI in heart sections. Scale bar: 20 μm. (B) Quantification of CD31+ capillaries/field; n = 3 hearts per group. Each heart slide was random selected with five high-power fields for statistical analysis. (C) Analysis of cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area in the three groups; n = 3 hearts per group. A total of 300 cardiomyocytes per group were analyzed. (D,E) Immunostaining of heart slides for CD31 and quantification of capillary density. Scale bar: 20 μm; n = 3 hearts per group. Each heart slide was random selected with five to eight high-power fields for statistical analysis. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, and ****P < 0.0001. Statistical significance was calculated using the unpaired two-tailed t-test.
