The protective effect of human-induced pluripotent stem cell- endothelial cell-extracellular vesicle (hiPSC-EC-EV) on carotid artery through inhibition of EC apoptosis. (A–D) Representative immunostaining images stained for CD31 (Red) and Ki67 (Green) in panel (A), stained for CD31 (Red) and TUNEL (Green) in panel (B), stained for α-SMA (Red) and Ki67 (Green) in panel (C), and stained for α-SMA (Red) and TUNEL (Green) in panel (D) in the carotid arteries 21 days after the surgery. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments (n = 3). Differences between linked groups were evaluated by two-tailed Student’s t-test. *p < 0.05 vs. Sham; #p < 0.05 vs. PBS.
